AND if space permits….
Dr. Strada is an aerospace engineer who has given many lectures on the scientific evidence for special creation. He will explain why the evolutionary hypothesis is not compatible with fundamental scientific laws or with the available scientific evidence. Mr. Owen is the convert son of Sir David Owen, an atheist and a former secretary general of International Planned Parenthood Federation. He discovered Catholicism as a student at Princeton University. He has lectured on this topic in America, Europe, Africa and Oceana under Church sponsorship. Mr. Owen will set forth the traditional Catholic understanding of Creation and the Fall using the testimony of Jesus in the Gospel, the unanimous teaching of the Church Fathers, the testimony of the Sacred Liturgy and the authoritative teaching on creation of the Popes and Ecumenical Councils. He will explain how this traditional doctrine was challenged by natural scientists outside of the household of the faith who explained the origins of man and the universe with the evolutionary hypothesis. He will explain how a failure by Catholics to respond to that challenge has contributed greatly to the advent of the culture of death.
