Abstract

This book, first published in 2000, adopts a balanced perspective on the subject to offer a serious examination of both Darwinism and Christianity. He covers a wide range of topics, from the Scopes Monkey Trial to claims about the religious significance of extraterrestrials. He deals with major figures in the current science/religion debate and considers in detail the claims of the new creationism, revealing some surprising parallels between Darwinian materialists and traditional thinkers such as St. Augustine. Michael Ruse argues that, although it is at times difficult for a Darwinian to embrace Christian belief, it is by no means inconceivable. At the same time he suggests ways in which a Christian believer should have no difficulty accepting evolution in general, and Darwinism in particular.

Abstract

In this long-awaited book, pre-eminent analytical philosopher Alvin Plantinga argues that the conflict between science and theistic religion is actually superficial, and that at a deeper level they are in concord.

Abstract

In this book, first published in 2004, William Dembski, Michael Ruse, and other prominent philosophers provide a comprehensive balanced overview of the debate concerning biological origins - a controversial dialectic since Darwin published The Origin of Species in 1859. Invariably, the source of controversy has been 'design'. Is the appearance of design in organisms (as exhibited in their functional complexity) the result of purely natural forces acting without prevision or teleology? Or, does the appearance of design signify genuine prevision and teleology, and, if so, is that design empirically detectable and thus open to scientific inquiry? Four main positions have emerged in response to these questions: Darwinism, self-organisation, theistic evolution, and intelligent design. The contributors to this volume define their respective positions in an accessible style, inviting readers to draw their own conclusions. Two introductory essays furnish a historical overview of the debate.

Abstract

L'origine de la vie et l'évolution des espèces ont toujours agité les esprits. Certains animaux peuvent-ils surgir du néant, comme le croyaient les adeptes de la génération spontanée? L'homme est-il un produit du hasard et d'une sélection naturelle, comme le pensent aujourd'hui les biologistes darwiniens? Une vague odeur de soufre plane encore sur ces questions difficiles. Un simple coup de pouce d'un créateur omniscient ne suffirait-il pas à les résoudre? La tentation d'hybrider la science et la religion n'est pas nouvelle. Elle motive aujourd'hui des mouvements tels que le créationnisme et, aux États-Unis, l'" Intelligent Design". Présente bien avant Darwin et sa théorie de l'évolution, elle resurgit régulièrement tel un infatigable serpent de mer. Chacune de ses réapparitions est l'occasion d'opposer à nouveau la raison et la foi, deux domaines moins étanches qu'on ne le croit - en tout cas assez équitablement visités par les vieux démons de l'intolérance.
