Is Christianity Responsible for the Advent of Science

David Hutchings, David Mitchell, Michael Granado · Lecture · 1h 7m· Nov 2022

Historian Michael Granado argues against the apologetic claim that Christianity uniquely birthed science — citing Gupta India, Mesoamerica and the Islamic Golden Age — while 'Of Popes and Unicorns' authors David Hutchings and James Ungureanu answer that Christianity was still science's greatest benefactor and the real enemy is the conflict thesis; Arjuna closes with a Vedic panentheist critique of the 'de-deified' nature that made both science and ecological abuse possible.
