Download or read book Intersections of Religion and Astronomy written by Chris Corbally and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-11-01 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume examines the way in which cultural ideas about "the heavens" shape religious ideas and are shaped by them in return. Our approaches to cosmology have a profound effect on the way in which we each deal with religious questions and participate in the imaginative work of public and private world-building. Employing an interdisciplinary team of international scholars, each chapter shows how religion and cosmology interrelate and matter for real people. Historical and contemporary case studies are included to demonstrate the lived reality of a variety of faith traditions and their interactions with the cosmos. This breadth of scope allows readers to get a unique overview of how religion, science and our view of space have, and will continue to, impact our worldviews. Offering a comprehensive exploration of humanity and its relationship with cosmology, this book will be an important reference for scholars of Religion and Science, Religion and Culture, Interreligious Dialogue and Theology, as well as those interested in Science and Culture and Public Education.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In God and the Astronomers, Dr. Robert Jastrow, world-renowned astrophysicist, describes the astronomical discoveries of recent years and the theological implications of the new insights afforded by science into mankind's place in the cosmos. He explains the chain of events that forced astronomers, despite their initial reluctance ("Irritating," said Einstein; "Repugnant," said the great British astronomer Eddington; "I would like to reject it," said MIT physicist Philip Morrison) to accept the validity of the Big Bang and the fact that the universe began in a moment of creation.

Download or read book Astronomy Theology written by Mathew Paul and published by . This book was released on 2014-04-15 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book arose out of a deep religious searching around astronomical events recorded in the Bible. From this, the research led to other ancient religious sources. It was an eye opener to read that all the regions of the world had very similar astronomical narratives and knowledge. Much if not all early religion was based on what the early civilizations saw transpiring in the sky above them. The planets shaped religion in ways that are still with us today. It's incredible to think that in this day and age there are those who still adhere to ancient astronomical based religion. Astronomy Theology will hopefully challenge the reader to appreciate other cultures and religious points of view, some of which date back to the dawn of recorded history. This book will challenge all to steer away from any form of fundamentalism, be it in religious or secular discipline.

Book excerpt: This is a book about science, religion, and the world in between. I was born into a Christian family, but fell out of religion and in love with the scientific method. I had little need of faith, I thought, when science could tell me so much more about the world, and ask so little of me in return. But as I aged into young adulthood, a new chapter of my story began. Did I really know why I believed what I believed? How could I be so certain of my convictions when I hadn't even honestly considered the evidence? This book traces my journey through the furthest reaches of thought, a journey that took me through the realms of psychology, biology, physics, and belief. Could I find a place for faith in the modern world? Or was I right to cast it off as I did?
