Can science and faith really coexist? In this clip from the Into The Truth Podcast, Canon Marcus Holden explores the relationship between God, Catholicism and modern science and explains why belief in God is not opposed to scientific discovery.

From the origins of the Big Bang Theory to the work of Catholic priest and physicist Georges Lemaître, the history of science contains important examples of Catholic thinkers engaging seriously with the natural world. Canon Marcus also discusses the Christian understanding of creation, the intelligibility of the universe, and why the belief that creation has meaning can provide a philosophical foundation for scientific inquiry.
The conversation then turns to one of the hardest questions for Christianity: if God is good, why does He allow suffering and evil? Drawing on free will, sin, the Cross of Christ, redemption and the Christian understanding of eternity, Canon Marcus considers how Catholic theology responds to the problem of evil.
This is a fascinating conversation about Catholic faith, science, atheism, God, creation, the Big Bang, suffering and the search for truth.
