The 2016 Clark Lectures - Teaser from The Scots College on Vimeo.
The beautiful Scots Church was filled to near capacity last Thursday evening as parents, students, staff and friends of the College were treated to an intellectual 'tour de force' by eminent MIT nuclear physicist Professor Ian Hutchinson. His 2016 Clark Lectures on 'Faith and Fusion: science and the sources of truth' addressed the putative clash between science and Christian faith. Surveying history, philosophy and contemporary science, he pointed to the religiously-inspired origins of science and the practice of modern scientists like him as strong reasons to view this clash as a myth. He answered a number of tough questions on nuclear fusion research, Genesis and the origins of the universe, and the relationship between science, relativism and truth.
