St. Albert the Great: Where Science and Faith Meet

November 15 is the feast day of St. Albert the Great in the Roman Catholic Church. Albert was a Dominican friar and bishop who died in Cologne on November 15, 1280. He studied plants, animals, rocks and stars, and he taught the young Thomas Aquinas. Albert believed the same God wrote both Scripture and the book of nature, so careful science and faithful prayer can never truly contradict. The Church named him patron saint of scientists. Science and faith can complement and strengthen one another, because both help us seek the truth.
