Jennifer Fulwiler on Atheism, Science, and Belief in God

Catholic blogger Jennifer Fulwiler posted on her blog today about the Explore God campaign which is being heavily promoted in and around Austin, Texas. This campaign appears to be designed to lead people to Christianity, mostly from a non-denominational or inter-denominational Protestant perspective, though I found some information on the site that is somewhat Catholic-friendly.

Jennifer mentions that, to her surprise, she is featured in one of the videos on the Explore God web site. In the video she talks about how she came to Christianity from atheism. Here is the video:



And please do take the time to read Jennifer's blog post if you get a chance. She make some great points about what it really means to have proof of the truth of Christianity.

Stephen Barr and Alexander Sich on Physics, the Nature of Time, and Theology

Dr. Stephen Barr talks about modern physics and why modern physics does not conflict with Judeo-Christian theology. His talk is followed by a response from Dr. Alexander Sich. Dr. Barr's talk is a bit dry, but he presents some very interesting information and perspective, at least from my point of view as someone who is interested in physics.



If you haven't read Dr. Barr's book, Modern Physics and Ancient Faith, I recommend it very highly -- he is better as a writer than as a speaker. :-)

Fr. Robert Barron on Misreading Genesis



This seems like a good video to post today, because I just finished reading the Ignatius Catholic Study Bible edition of the book of Genesis. It had been many years since I last read the book of Genesis. I found the Biblical text along with the excellent study notes to be very enlightening, and I highly recommend the Ignatius study Bible series.
