Science for Catholic Seminaries

As part of a Templeton Religious Trust grant, members of the Society of Catholic Scientists offerred “Modern Science and the Catholic Faith” seminars at a number of US Catholic seminaries during the 2024-25 academic year. The seminars were designed based upon information gathered from Science and Catholicism surveys that had been administered to Catholic seminarians across the country.

In particular, the seminars  addressed the philosophical and scientific issues that seminarians reported to generate the most perceived conflict with Catholic teaching.

The key talks from these seminars are available below.
