Heart of Matter: “Ideas of the Sacred”

“Teilhard understood that our idea of nature has changed along with our ideas of the sacred largely because science and technology have redefined our world. The scientific and technological transformation of nature belongs to the new story of religion.”

 “Teilhard supo entender que nuestra idea de la naturaleza ha cambiado, así como nuestras concepciones de lo sagrado. Ello se debe en gran parte a que la ciencia y la tecnología han redefinido nuestro mundo. La transformación científica y tecnológica de la naturaleza forma parte de una nueva historia de la religión.”
