ACERCA DE ESTE EPISODIO
Can a Catholic accept evolution? And if the human person is a unity of body and soul, how do we make sense of our biological origins? In this lecture, given as part of Christendom College's Collegiate Lecture Series, biologist Dr. Daniel Kuebler takes up those questions. He looks at how current scientific understanding of human evolution can be reconciled with Catholic teaching, and he shows that faith and reason, rightly understood, have nothing to fear from each other.
Dr. Kuebler is a professor of biology at Franciscan University of Steubenville. He teaches evolution, cell physiology, and science-and-faith courses, and his research focuses on adult stem cells. He wrote Darwin and Dogma: The Compatibility of Evolution and Catholicism (Word on Fire Press, 2025) and co-authored The Evolution Controversy: A Survey of Competing Theories. He is vice president of the Society of Catholic Scientists, sits on the board of the Spitzer-Magis Center, and hosts the Purposeful Lab podcast.
Recorded September 21, 2026, in Old Chapel Hall at Christendom College, Front Royal, Virginia.
