Torrey Nommesen's "De Revolutionabus"

This work is a comment on Science and its battle with Religion. Some call the science-religion debate the fundamental crisis of our time. This debate started as the first copy of “De revolutionibus” was placed in the hands of Copernicus as he lay on his death bed and started a scientific revolution that continues to this day. Current news stories focus on whether Intelligent Design should be taught as an alternative to evolution theory. Debates on abortion issues raise questions about the definition of life itself, asking when and whether a mother and her child are one or two people. Stories about how the FDA works with drug companies brings up questions about the motivations of producing medicine. The Baby Boomers are aging, making questions of health care technology more urgent. Our President claims that he has a personal relationship with God. This work will use lines painted in black with fields of pure color in between the lines.
