Lesson 2024: Physics and the Resurrection of the Body
News on the University website
summary
Catholics and other Christians believe that those who are saved will attain eternal life. But where will that life be lived and what will it be like? Will it be within the confines of this physical universe or totally outside of it? Will it be similar to the present state of things, physically speaking, or completely different? Does science serve any financial aid purpose in thinking about these things, or is it completely irrelevant?
