AAI Podcast - Galileo (The Conflict Between Religion And Science) - Greg Dawes

<p><strong>Galileo and the Conflict between Religion and Science with Gregory W. Dawes.</strong></p> <p><strong>Hi and welcome to the Atheist Alliance International podcast with me Andy Phillips and today I’m joined by our resident historian, writer and blogger Jason Sylvester and today we are talking to Professor Greg Dawes who teaches courses on religion and philosophy at Otago University in Auckland, NZ, and is the author of Galileo and the Conflict between Religion and Science.</strong></p> <p><strong>He joins us today to discuss the theological and contextual background of the showdown between the Catholic Church and Galileo in the 1600s, and how the religious mentality, then and now, claims special knowledge via divine revelation which in the eyes of the church trumps science.</strong></p> <p><strong>BOOK: Galileo and the Conflict between Religion and Science by Gregory W.
