The debate between science and religion is one of the most fascinating and enduring themes of the modern world.

In that debate - sometimes hostile, often harmonious, always complex - Christ's College has played a significant role.

Whether one looks to the Neoplatonist thinker Henry More (1614-1687), or to William Paley (1743-1805) and his divine 'watchmaker', or to Charles Darwin (1809-1882) and his revolutionary theory of evolution, or to the theologian and naturalist Charles Raven (1885-1964), the relationship between scientific understanding and religious belief has exercised some of Christ's College's greatest minds.

In a new exhibition held in the stunning period setting of the Old Library, the crucial contribution that these men, and others, have made to this ongoing debate is explored via the College's rich and diverse collections of printed books, manuscripts and photographs.

The exhibition will be on display from 5 December 2014 until 29 May 2015.
