ITEST Webinar: Everywhen: God, Symmetry, and Time

Other | November 28 2021

Register for a webinar presented by the Institute for Theological Encounter with Science and Technology (ITEST). Everywhen: God, Symmetry, and Time Faith and Science: Are they Really Opposed? or Not? Join us on Saturday, December 11, 2021 from 9:00 to 11:00 am central. Presenter, Dr. Thomas Sheahen draws attention to the way humans have tried to impose their limited understanding of time upon God. To overcome that mistake, Sheahen suggests a new pathway that steps upward toward seeking “both/and” answers instead of “either/or” answers. This enhances our understanding of time, creation and evolution. The webinar fee is $10. Free of charge: ITEST members, clergy, seminarians, and consecrated religious. Donations are appreciated.
