How is it that serious scientists doing solid science reach different interpretations when studying the evidence about the origin of the universe, life, and humanity? In just 5 minutes, the animated film Christians on Science explores this question in an interesting and entertaining way, providing a sound answer supported by numerous scientific data.
The original English version of Christians on Science was released by the GRI in October 2021. Thousands of people have since seen the video, fulfilling the goal of its producer, Dr. Birgir Oskarsson:
“My hope is that those who view Christians on Science will come away with both a better understanding of how science works and the relationship between science and faith. The perspective presented helps us understand why Christians remain central to the sciences, yet don’t embrace the same interpretations as those with different religious views.”
Dr. Oskarsson is a geologist working in Iceland and the representative of the Trans European Division on the Geoscience Research Institute Committee (GRICOM), a committee of the General Conference of Seventh-day Adventists. Due to the good reception given to the film, Oskarsson has sought to broaden its impact by translating it into several European languages. These translations have been coordinated by the European Branch Office of the Geoscience Research Institute, in collaboration with several Seventh-Day Adventist institutions.
“Christians on Science answers questions that many young and older Christians have in their minds”, says Dr Noemí Durán, Director of the Geoscience Research Institute Office for the Inter-European Division, “Our intention is that people in Europe can listen to this important message in their own languages, and that is why we decided to translate Christians on Science to as many languages as possible”.
The translations of Christians on Science available for Creation Sabbath 2023 are:
SPANISH, made in collaboration with Hope Media Spain. ROMANIAN, made in collaboration with Adventus University. ITALIAN, made in collaboration with Hope Media Italy. GERMAN, made in collaboration with Hope Media Europe. PORTUGUESE, made in collaboration with Hope Media Portugal.
