Journal 25 – Science and religion
I think that religion does not have to be in conflict in the science. Orzechowski’s interview, about which I wrote my previous journal, regarding the theory of evolution, generated a broad discussion in Poland.
Rev. Archbishop Prof. Joseph Zycinski, a well-known Polish Catholic intellectualist, stated, that Darwin’s theory isn’t contradictory with the Christian teaching that God created the world.
A Russian physiologist, Ivan Petrovich Pavlov, is widely known because he, as the first scientist, described the phenomenon broadly known as classical conditioning (in his experiments with dogs).
Pavlov was a very religious man and often prayed in his Orthodox church (cerkow). It was curious because the scientist lived in the cruel period of the Communist rule in the Soviet Union.
I am convinced that all American high school alumni heard about Pavlov’s Dog. Ivan Pavlov had a very rich personality and turbulent life. I would like to devote him my next journal.
