Journey of the Universe

Q&A Mary Evelyn Tucker and John Grim

Five years ago we hosted a memorable evening with two remarkable thinkers out of Yale: Mary Evelyn Tucker and John Grim. They brought with them their Emmy Award-winning film Journey of the Universe, and we all had an opportunity to explore a vision of the cosmos that bridged science and spirituality in a fresh and exciting way. Their film traces the ideas of evolutionary philosopher Brian Swimme and ecotheologian Thomas Berry, and takes us through the 14 billion year history of the universe, weaving a tale that wonders whether life isn’t an essential and elemental dimension of its history. We invited them back for a return visit, with a screening of their beautiful hour-long film followed by a discussion of where they see developments in biology, ecology, physics, and astronomy moving, and what perhaps has changed in the five years since we first spoke.
