When Science Meets Religion:
Intelligent Perspectives on Our World
An evening discussion
with Dr. Noah Finkelstein &
Rabbi Jamie Korngold |
|
Why would it be that so many great scientists are Jews?
Despite recent efforts to polarize our society into
"religious" or "scientific" camps,
these forms of understanding the world- science and
religion- may be viewed as strong complements of one
another.
In fact, they offer many overlapping views of the way
the world is and how it works. We examine what it means
to engage in scientific or religious inquiry, explore
the challenges of a world that truly excludes science
or religion, and ground the broader questions with with
specific examples such as: the creation story, miracles,
visions of nature, or topics of your own selection.
Dr.
Noah Finkelstein is a Professor of Physics Education
Research in the Department of Physics at the University
of Colorado, Boulder and a frequent participant on Adventure
Rabbi trips. Noah currently serves as the President
of the Adventure Rabbi Leadership Council. Noah is known
for welcoming everyone's viewpoint, so please come prepared
to share your unique ideas.
This
program will be facilitated by Dr. Finkelstein with
Rabbi Korngold
Nosh
and drinks will be provided.

Join
Rabbi Korngold for 60 minutes of accessible,
enjoyable learning. Great for those who would
like a more intensive learning experience
than rest breaks on the trail provide.
In
this one hour class we will explore the basics
and not so basics about how to "do"
Shabbat including:
-
What
goes on a Sabbath table and why?
-
What prayers do we say over candles, wine
and challah?
-
Why
do some people tear the challah?
-
Can
I be a good Jew and not spend Shabbat in
Temple?
