023: Debunking the Science vs. Catholicism Conflict (w/ Dr. Stacy Trasancos)

In this episode of The Cordial Catholic Podcast I talk with Dr. Stacy Trasancos about the supposed conflict between faith and science. Dr. Trasancos, a PhD chemist with a degree in dogmatic theology, is the author of Particles of Faith and a sought after speaker on the intersection of Catholicism and science.We discuss how science points towards a creator, how and why we need to be careful with relying too much on science to back up our faith, and how to effectively evangelize through science.For more on Dr. Stacy Trasancos visit her website where you can listen to a number of interviews she's done, read articles, and purchase her books. Her fantastic book is Particles of Faith which comes out in a Student Edition later in September 2019.For more, visit The Cordial Catholic. Send your feedback to [email protected].
