The first of the series of lectures on "Religion and Science" will be given this afternoon at 4.30 by Professor George H. Parker '87 in Peabody Hall, the Phillips Brooks House. Professor Parker, who will be introduced by R. H. Sears '24, president of the Christian Association, has chosen for his subject, "Evolution and Religion". The meeting is open only to members of the University.
Today's lecture is the first of three to be given by eminent scientists on the general subject of religion and science. The object of the series is to show that the apparent conflict between the two can be reconciled without a loss of faith in the facts of either. The discussion is considered particularly timely in connection with the controversy in various churches, one of the features of which is the adaptation of Biblical doctrines in the light of scientific facts.
