Day 2: Science and Religion in the meaning of life

Class Biz

• SLC's are next Wednesday.  You only need to attend with your parent(s) if you have a C- or lower in any class and if you haven't contacted a LINK mentor yet.
• You'll need to fill out an academic plan for each class you are not passing (or have a C- in). You may work on that during class work time tomorrow and Monday.
• You will also need to sign up for an SLC by Monday.
• A note about yesterday's discussion on science and religion: What the purpose of this mini-study is and expectations for civility of discourse and accuracy of statements.

Historical Context of the Religion and Science Dichotomy:  
BBC Documentary:  The End of God?  A Horizon Guide to Science and Religion
Take notes on the film.  Note major events in the historical ideological struggle between religion and science.  Jot down questions.  Think about where are now in this struggle as a species and where you are as an individual.

Journal:  Synthesize the content of the  film.  What did you find striking, interesting, disturbing, questionable?  What do you think about the bigger question the film is asking?
