Lecture: "Creation and Evolution: Toward a Synthesis?"
Speaker: Speaker: DR. KENNETH J. SYTSMA, Professor of Botany,
University of Wisconsin
Date: Thursday, October 1 at 7.30 pm
Place: KTS Theatre, 2nd Floor New Academic Building,
University of King's College, 6350 Coburg Road, Halifax
Facilitated by the History of Science and Technology
Programme at the University of King's College
Does the hard scientific evidence lead us to a belief in evolutionary
theory? Does Darwin's theory of natural selection provide a
fundamental framework for understanding the relationships of all
living things? Might evolution have been God's elegant plan for
creating humankind? Or, did God create human beings pretty much in
their present form at one time within the last 10,000 years or so?
These important questions (and their implications) will be explored
with a Reformed theological perspective in mind and drawing on the
"Two Book" argument.
Dr. Kenneth J. Sytsma (PhD, Washington University) has worked as the
Professor of Botany at the University of Wisconsin, Madison from 1994
to the present. From 2004-2008 Dr. Sytsma was co-Chair of the Biology
Major, University of Wisconsin. He is widely published. Dr. Sytsma's
areas of interest are: Phylogenetics of flowering plants; adaptive
radiations of island, tepui, and Andean flora; molecular and
morphological evolution of Myrtales, Ericales, Brassicales,
Campanulales and commelinoid monocots with emphasis on Onagraceae,
Combretaceae, Capparidaceae, Bromeliaceae, Rapateaceae, Lobeliaceae;
biogeography of disjunctions; phylogeography of rare or invasive
species; floristics and biogeography of Great Lakes flora; pollination
biology.
