A Christian response to Europe's crises
The Iona Institute is co-sponsoring a major conference to coincide with Ireland’s presidency of the European Union. It takes place on May 10, with a ‘curtain-raiser’ event on May 9. The conference will look at the many crises currently facing Europe, whether economic, political, social, religious or environmental. It will look at Christian responses to each of these challenges.
What we owe Christianity
The topic of our next conference will be 'What we owe Christianity'. It will look at the Christian contribution to human rights, politics and how it helped shape Ireland for the better.
The alleged conflict between science and faith
Our next speaker will be priest and physicist Dr Andrew Pinsent on the topic, 'The Alleged Conflict between science and faith'.
Ireland and the abolition of God
Our next talk will be given by commentator and author, John Waters. His topic will be 'Ireland and the abolition of God'. John will discuss how Ireland has pushed talk of God and religion to the margins of public life, but the end result of this isn’t liberation, but a narrowing of our horizons and a closing of our minds.
The Holocaust and Pope Pius XII
Our next speaker is Gary Krupp, one of the most noted Jewish defenders of Pope Pius XII who stands accused of not doing enough to prevent the Holocaust, or even of being 'Hitler's Pope'.
