Faraday Institute Advocates A Middle Ground Between Science and Religion

Two weeks ago today, CCF and LCF hosted a group from the Faraday Institute for Science and Religion in the University of Cambridge. They had wanted to show a segment of a video they had produced, essentially about how science and religion do not actually conflict. This particular video dealt with the interactions between neuroscience and spirituality. After showing the video, they gathered a panel of a pastor (Ken Fong of Evergreen), a chemistry professor (David Vosburg of Harvey Mudd), a Faraday Insitute representative (Ruth Bancewicz), and an Old Testament scholar (Tremper Longman III) to answer questions. The crowd, filling Noyes 153 (see the pictures below!) was a mix between Caltech undergrads and Evergreen members. Keep reading for some reactions to the event.
