Institution:

Stetson University

Subject:

Description:

Charles Darwin's theory of species development has been a flashpoint for controversy between religious and scientific outlooks on the world. Using Darwinism as the most significant aspect of science to appear regularly in social thought and political debate, this course will examine the religious beliefs, scientific theories, and cultural values that have emerged in the wide range of interactions between science and religion from the nineteenth century to the present. Science and religion will be our window into modern American culture as a whole.
