Jelle De Boer and Ursula Goodenough — The Morality of Nature
from On Being with Krista Tippett · host On Being Studios
We explore the human and religious implications of natural disasters through the eyes of two scientists steeped in the workings of the natural world. We approach the morality of nature from a non-theological angle, tracing how natural disasters have sometimes fueled religious agendas and movements and how strictly scientific perspectives can both challenge and illuminate religious questions.
