Résumé: | This review article will evaluate two companion volumes on the continuing dialogue between the natural sciences and Christian theology, particularly how the two disciplines mutually complement and reinforce one another because they are not in fundamental disagreement even though they have ultimately different subject matters, that is, the Triune God and his creation/natural world. We agree with the contributors that the disciplines of the natural sciences and Christian theology integrate well but not to the extent of an ultimate synthesis wherein they lose their distinct methodologies, epistemologies, and ontologies. Moreover, we will argue that even though Darwinian evolutionary theory is the reigning scientific paradigm, as accepted by the contributors, we believe that it is not the only one available to Christian theologians and thus other paradigms should have been given a voice in these volumes. |
