Description: |
Arguing that Christians and Darwinists both mistakenly seek an underlying design and order in the universe, John Haught suggests that both premises lack the notion of novelty, a necessary component of evolution and the essence of the divine mystery. |
Synopsis: |
Argues that both evolutionism and creationism rely too heavily on notions of underlying order and design. Instead of focusing on the idea of novelty in human experiencenovelty as a necessary component of evolution, and as the essence of divine Mystery.. In God After Darwin , John Haught argues that the ongoing debate between Darwinian evolutionists and Christian apologists is fundamentally misdirected: both sides persist in focusing upon an explanation of underlying design and order in the universe. Haught suggests that what is lacking in both of these competing ideologies is the notion of novelty, a necessary component of evolution and the essence of the unfolding of divine Mystery. He argues that Darwins disturbing picture of life, instead of being hostile to religion - as scientific skeptics and many believers have thought it to be - actually provides a most fertile setting for mature reflection on the idea of God. Solidly grounded in scholarship, Haughts explanation of the relationship between theology and evolution is both accessible and engaging. |
