About the project

This project addresses one of the most sensitive and often oversimplified questions at the boundary of science and faith: what evolutionary theory means today, how robust it is scientifically, and how a believer can engage with these findings honestly without fear or ideological templates.

The conversation is intended to cover not only biological aspects, but also anthropological and theological implications. What does human origin mean in light of contemporary science? How should we read the figures of Adam and Eve? Can we speak about original sin within an evolutionary account of the world? Where does scientific description end and philosophical or theological interpretation begin?

Our goal is not to impose a ready-made position, but to create a space for serious dialogue in which a person of faith does not fear scientific data, and a person of science does not have to reduce all human experience to biological mechanisms.

Why it matters

This project matters as an honest and non-ideological conversation between science and faith. It helps overcome the false need to choose between religious trust and scientific knowledge.
