COLLINS: There are sincere believers who interpret Genesis 1 and 2 in a very literal way that is inconsistent, frankly, with our knowledge of the universe's age or of how living organisms are related to each other. St. Augustine wrote that basically it is not possible to understand what was being described in Genesis. It was not intended as a science textbook. It was intended as a description of who God was, who we are and what our relationship is supposed to be with God. Augustine explicitly warns against a very narrow perspective that will put our faith...
...claim to be useful.”A SMASHING SUCCESSThe red crane-like structure from which Ross fell is a primary example of the concept of usable—but not necessarily useful—art. Combining concepts of physics and simple machines to re-interpret a reliable playground staple, “Leverage,” is an asymmetrical ten-person seesaw. Due to its configuration, one person is able to counterbalance the weight of nine others. Reyes asserts that multiple readings are possible for such a piece.“You could say it is inequity, or hierarchy...
...enough of what is being made to have any idea what is going on. You can pretend to know...but no one really does,” Lowry said. He said that despite the onslaught of art available for the public, art institutions should not feel obligated to interpret...

Responding to questions from the audience, Gillespie said that failure in Iraq wasn’t a foregone conclusion and added that American national security hinged on the outcome of the war. A safe situation for Iraqi citizens, he said, would be “a positive byproduct of what...
...labs students learn how to interpret fossils, and how to use DNA sequences to determine evolutionary relationships. I also lecture on how advances in our understanding of the genome, for example the discovery of the Hox genes, bear on our understanding of morphological evolution. Finally, I discuss how we, Homo sapiens, fit into the tree of life, how our anatomy is largely a consequence of our early vertebrate heritage, and how our history fits into that of our planet. And I have been able to make this fundamental and rigorous science course popular...
