Scientism as Sacred Authority - Liturgies of Life E21
Manage episode 333402297 series 2825246
In the last episode, Fr Yuri and Fr Geoffrey discussed science as a cosmic story and how that story relates to the Gospel. This week, they discuss the problem of the phrase "science says...". Scientific pursuit can be taken to an extreme, and thought of as the only way of rendering truth, in a sense proclaiming scientism to be a sacred authority in itself. Fr Geoffrey and Fr Yuri also speak about the positive form of scientism, which can be profoundly Christian, indeed!
