Discussion #7. Discussion Creation and Fractals

The Secret Code of Creation [Fractals]

Dr. Jason Lisle, an astrophysicist and research scientist, presents the Mandelbrot fractal in the context of creation.  Throughout the presentation, he discusses his Christian worldview, that God is the creator of the universe as well as many mathematical concepts that we have discovered and makes comparisons to secular worldviews.  As you watch the video, reflect on your own worldview and how it relates to mathematics and creation.
