Dealing with a complex relationship

Science and the Catholic Church, dealing with a complex relationship, is an online course from the MOOC library of the Patagonia Freewill project for the teaching of sciences and humanities. It belongs to the History of Science collection, and what we seek with this course is to clarify myths, to concisely explain the history of the Catholic Church's relationship with the natural or experimental sciences (physics, chemistry, and biology) with an emphasis on explaining how this relationship is today.

This course is designed for a vast audience; basically, the only requirement is your interest in learning about the relationship that exists and has existed between the Catholic Church and science.

The relationship between science and religion is a fascinating and entertaining subject. It is a story full of controversies, discussions, and friction points. We will focus on the Catholic Church because it is an institution that has been the protagonist of many debates throughout the universal history of the West.

The main aim is to present the information as clearly and robustly as possible.

After completing the course, we intend that you can have a general understanding of this relationship and that you form your own opinion. It doesn’t matter if you are a believer, agnostic, atheist, or whatever denomination suits you as a person. We will try to present the information with tremendous respect and always speak with support. And for getting this accomplishment, for each section, you will have the bibliography used in the preparation of the lectures, including even the page number of the works, for potential consultations with the texts.

People from all over the world and of all faiths and beliefs are invited to enroll in this course. It has been developed with great dedication and enthusiasm.

Upon completing the course, you can request a digital certificate of participation from PFW for free; additionally, Udemy will automatically extend your certificate of completion.
