Life & Faith: Where did we come from?

It’s one of life’s biggest questions – where did we come from?

Since ancient times, philosophers and scientists have offered answers – and so has religion. But they don’t often say the same thing.

These differences are often highlighted in the classic science versus religion debate that pit, for example, evolution against intelligent design.

But what if science and faith are less hostile towards each other than we think?

In this episode, Dr Graeme Finlay explores the complex relationship and compatibility of science and biblical faith, and what they can teach us about the origin of the universe and humanity.
