Sunday October 23rd in person at James Bay New Horizons and on Zoom - Sepideh Heydari - "We follow the science"

The covid-19 pandemic had many people debating “the science” as each new shred of data hit the news and social media.  Politically, ‘science’ was often stated as the chief reason for important policy decisions.  What is science, though?  One of the sources of UUism is “Humanist teachings which counsel us to heed the guidance of reason and the results of science, and warn us against the idolatries of the mind and spirit.”  Dr. Sepideh Heydari has been a neuroscientist at UVic and is now an IT analyst at Island Health.
