Description

Mike, Nate, and Jessica start a new series on Catholic scientists, starting with one that most everyone learns about in school, Gregor Mendel. He was a meteorologist, mathematician, biologist, Augustinian friar and abbot.  He was raised by farmers, worked as a bee keeper and farmer, studied practical and theoretical philosophy and physics, became an Augustinian friar, wrote scientific papers, taught and was an Abbot.   Along with talking about his life and contribution to science we discus: how being abbot cuts into science time, monks and higher education, genes,  failed scientific theories, lost information and Hawkweed, so so much Hawkweed!
