Science and Belief from the Copernicans to the Creationists and the Way Ahead
Science and belief from the Copernicans to the Creationists and the way ahead Course Number: HIST/INDS 550 Institution: Regent College Instructors: Dr. David Livingstone and Dr. Mark Noll Course Description This course examines critical historical episodes in the interaction between Christianity and science from the sixteenth century to the present. A major goal is to show how deeply embedded in specific cultural situations are all “encounters” between Christianity and science. A second goal is to subvert the notion that talking about “creation” and “evolution” was or ever can be a simple matter. A third goal is to suggest Christian strategies for a more fruitful interchange between science and faith. From this course, students should take away both enriched historical understanding and better theological balance for approaching critical questions relating science and Christianity.

Debating Darwin How the Church Responded to the Evolution Bombshell the Doctrine at Stake Left: Michelangelo Famously Painted God Creating Humans in the Divine Image
CHRISTIAN HISTORY Issue 107 Debating Darwin How the church responded to the evolution bombshell THE DOCTRINE AT STAKE Left: Michelangelo famously painted God creating humans in the divine image. THE BOMBSHELL EXPLODES Below: In this notebook, Darwin first diagrammed his theory of evolution- ary descent through natural selection. Did you know? MUCH MORE THAN MONKEY BUSINESS DARWIN ALMOST MISSED THE BOAT Among the careers Darwin considered before making his fateful Beagle voyage was medicine (his father’s choice). But his attempt to become a doctor was foiled by his inability to stand the sight of blood. When the voyage was proposed, he was not the first choice, and when he was offered a position, his father turned it down on his behalf. When Darwin finally did make it onto the boat, he was seasick for most of the voyage— one of the reasons he spent so much time off the boat collecting specimens on solid ground. FAVORED RACES The full title of Darwin’s book was On the Origin of Spe- cies by Means of Natural Selection, or the Preservation of Favoured Races in the Struggle for Life. Darwin did not argue there that humans descended from nonhuman ancestors. That book came a little over a decade later, in 1871: The Descent of Man and Selection in Relation to Sex. Much of the controversy over Darwin’s theories fol- lowed this later book. During Darwin’s own lifetime, neither sold as well as his last book—on earthworms. DIFFERENT STROKES Scientists responded differently to Darwin in different RARY B I L LIVING IN A MATERIAL WORLD places. -

Landscapes documented through the CLI are those that individually meet criteria set forth in the National Register of Historic Places such as historic sites, historic designed landscapes, and historic vernacular landscapes or those that are contributing elements of properties that meet the criteria. In addition, landscapes that are managed as cultural resources because of law, policy, or decisions reached through the park planning process even though they do not meet the National Register criteria, are also included in the CLI. The CLI serves three major purposes. First, it provides the means to describe cultural landscapes on an individual or collective basis at the park, regional, or service-wide level. Secondly, it provides a platform to share information about cultural landscapes across programmatic areas and concerns and to integrate related data about these resources into park management. Thirdly, it provides an analytical tool to judge accomplishment and accountability. The legislative, regulatory, and policy direction for conducting the CLI include: National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 (16 USC 470h-2(a)(1)). -
“Can't Help Singing”: the “Modern” Opera Diva In
“CAN’T HELP SINGING”: THE “MODERN” OPERA DIVA IN HOLLYWOOD FILM, 1930–1950 Gina Bombola A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Music in the College of Arts and Sciences. Chapel Hill 2017 Approved by: Annegret Fauser Tim Carter Mark Katz Chérie Rivers Ndaliko Jocelyn Neal ©2017 Gina Bombola ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Gina Bombola: “Can’t Help Singing”: The “Modern” Opera Diva in Hollywood Film, 1930–1950 (Under the direction of Annegret Fauser) Following the release of Columbia Pictures’ surprise smash hit, One Night of Love (1934), major Hollywood studios sought to cash in on the public’s burgeoning interest in films featuring opera singers. For a brief period thereafter, renowned Metropolitan Opera artists such as Grace Moore and Lily Pons fared well at the box office, bringing “elite” musical culture to general audiences for a relatively inexpensive price. By the 1940s, however, the studios began grooming their own operatic actresses instead of transplanting celebrities from the stage. Stars such as Deanna Durbin, Kathryn Grayson, and Jane Powell thereby became ambassadors of opera from the highly commercial studio lot. My dissertation traces the shifts in film production and marketing of operatic singers in association with the rise of such cultural phenomena as the music-appreciation movement, all contextualized within the changing social and political landscapes of the United States spanning the Great Depression to the Cold War. Drawing on a variety of methodologies—including, among others, archival research, film analysis, feminist criticisms, and social theory—I argue that Hollywood framed opera as less of a European theatrical art performed in elite venues and more of a democratic, albeit still white, musical tradition that could be sung by talented individuals in any location. -

Louis Agassiz and Alexander Winchell: Two Case Histories of Creationists Who Illustrate That Rejecting Genesis Influences the Acceptance of Racism
Answers Research Journal 13 (2020): 221–229. www.answersingenesis.org/arj/v13/agassiz_winchell_racism.pdf Louis Agassiz and Alexander Winchell: Two Case Histories of Creationists Who Illustrate That Rejecting Genesis Influences the Acceptance of Racism Jerry Bergman, Genesis Apologetics, PO Box 1326, Folsom, California 95763-1326. Abstract Two prominent cases were selected that illustrate the tendency to interpret Scripture to fit with evolutionary biology. In this case, until around 1950, racist science (the academic term for exploiting science to support racism) was used to demonstrate evolution. Dividing humans into “races” is problematic because only one race exists, the human race. Thus I prefer the non-judgmental term “people groups.” Nonetheless, the race belief was used by evolutionists to produce a hierarchy from the claimed lowest human race to the most evolved human race. In the 1870s Professor Chambers and his co-workers considered the Hottentot people only one step evolved above the gorilla, thus in their mind documented evolution. The lowest human and highest evolved ape were almost identical according to the many inaccurate drawings used to illustrate evolution. This was the main evidence used to document human evolution for over a century until claims of fossil discoveries of extinct humans were proposed by Louis, Mary and Richard Leakey and others. Keywords: Louis Agassiz, Alexander Winchell, Genesis compromises, evolution, harm of evolution, Louis Agassiz, Alexander Winchell, racism, race, Hottentots,Ku Klux Klan, slavery Introduction six thousand years ago. Descendants of the first Many Christians today believe that human couple multiplied rapidly, perhaps because of their evolution can be harmonized with Genesis. -
The Life and Writings of Harriett Mulford (Stone) Lothrop
Heidi Brautigam Boston College December 9, 1999 The Life and Writings of Harriett Mulford (Stone) Lothrop A sketch of Harriett Mulford Lothrop, a.k.a. Margaret Sidney in The Publishers' Weekly informs us that "Margaret Sidney's friends remember her as a little lady rocking beside an open fire. Long after the lamp should have been lit, she would sit in her old brown chair, thinking about the Peppers. From time to time a smile crossed her face just as if she were really listening to one of their amusing escapades" ("Margaret Sidney" 1763). A true friend of this remarkable woman, however, would remember far more than that passive scene. During her long and fruitful life, Lothrop not only wrote a children's bestseller under the penname of "Margaret Sidney," but she penned numerous other novels, started a national organization that still exists today, and became involved in a variety of civic and historical activities. Harriett Mulford Stone was born in New Haven, Connecticut, on June 22, 1844 (Deny 1). Her father, Sidney Mason Stone, had two sons and two daughters from a previous marriage (Biography), but Harriett was the first child born to Sidney and his second wife, who was also named Harriett Mulford Stone. The couple later added another daughter to the family (Biography). Proud of her family's distinguished ancestry, Harriett wrote of herself: "On her father's side were many eminent in the Revolution, and in the literary and ecclesiastical history of New England. By her mother, she was lineally descended from John Howland of the Mayflower" (Autobiographical sketch). -

In 1885 a private corp oration, the Reading Water Company, was chartered to provide this service. Study committees constituted by the -town, however, recommended that the town take over this respon sibility, and the issue was settled by the General Court in favor of the town in 1889. A Board of Water Commissioners composed of Lewis Bancroft, George Abbott,and Edward Nichols was elected.
