Editorial Review Product Description By the twentieth century, science had become so important that religious traditions had to respond to it. Emerging religions, still led by a living founder to guide them, responded with a clarity and focus that illuminates other larger, more established religions’ understandings of science. The Hare Krishnas, the Unification Church, and Heaven’s Gate each found distinct ways to incorporate major findings of modern American science, understanding it as central to their wider theological and social agendas. In tracing the development of these new religious movements’ viewpoints on science during each movement’s founding period, we can discern how their views on science were crafted over time. These NRMs shed light on how religious groups—new, old, alternative, or mainstream—could respond to the tremendous growth of power and prestige of science in late twentieth-century America. In this engrossing book, Zeller carefully shows that religious groups had several methods of creatively responding to science, and that the often-assumed conflict-based model of “science vs. religion” must be replaced by a more nuanced understanding of how religions operate in our modern scientific world. |
88. Render Unto Darwin: Philosophical Aspects of the Christian Right's Crusade Against Science by Ph.D. James H. Fetzer | |
Paperback: 220

list price: US$24.95 -- used & new: US$1.20 (price subject to change: see help) Asin: 0812696050 Canada | United Kingdom | Germany | France | Japan | |
Editorial Review Product Description In this exceptionally clear analysis, a leading philosopher and public intellectual lays out the evidence and logic relating to evolution and Creation.Professor Fetzer exposes the philosophical issues at the core of passionate public debates.He demonstrates that, while God's Creation of the universe can be reconciled with the scientific evidence, the literal account in Genesis cannot be so reconciled. Render Unto Darwin unravels some of the muddled thinking inherent in present-day evolutionary discussions, but shows that any Creationism which denies the great truths disclosed by Darwin is a lost cause.Fetzer explains that morality can be objectively validated independently of religion, and that only a deontological standard of ethics passes the essential tests. In the most provocative part of this provocative book, Fetzer argues that an unholy alliance of fundamentalist propagandists and rightwing politicians is playing its part in the rise of a new American fascism based on the domination of civic life by unscrupulous business corporations. |

Editorial Review Product Description In a Darwinian world, religious behavior - just like other behaviors - is likely to have undergone a process of natural selection in which it was rewarded in the evolutionary currency of reproductive success. This book aims to provide a better understanding of the social scenarios in which selection pressure led to religious practices becoming an evolved human trait, i.e. an adaptive answer to the conditions of living and surviving that prevailed among our prehistoric ancestors. This aim is pursued by a team of expert authors from a range of disciplines. Their contributions examine the relevant physiological, emotional, cognitive and social processes. The resulting understanding of the functional interplay of these processes gives valuable insights into the biological roots and benefits of religion. |

Editorial Review Product Description At the beginning of the twenty-first century, Christians continue to wonder whether faith and science are partners or opponents.In this book six Christian scholars help us sort through the issues as they present four views on the relationship of science and Christianity. The four views and their proponents are [] "Creationism: An Inerrant Bible & Effective Science," Wayne Frair, King's Collge, and Gary D. Patterson, Carnegie Mellon University[] "Independence: Mutual Humility in the Relationship Between Science & Christian Theology," Jean Pond, Whitworth College[] "Qualified Agreement: Modern Science & the Return of the 'God Hypothesis,'" Stephen C. Meyer, Whitworth College[] "Partnership: Science & Christian Theology as Partners in Theorizing," Howard J. Van Till, Calvin College Each of the contributors responds to the other essayists, noting points of agreement as well as disagreement. The editor also provides an introduction to the contemporary debate and a conclusion that helps readers evaluate the relative strengths and weaknesses of each view. Customer Reviews (5)
Are Science and Religion Separate or Interacting Spheres?
Dissappointing- Creationist position not represented well
Absence of true Creationist position made this dialog bland 1. The Creationism position (for some reason the only position that is an "ism") was blandly proclaimed in a lengthy and mostly uninspired essay by Wayne Friar and Gary D. Patterson. Although I had never heard of them, I suspect they are part of some mutual admiration society overusing phrases in their supposedly critical response essays like "we commend", "we join", "we agree that" and "we share." They sacrificed the sharp sword of intellectual debate for the blunt instrument of patronizing accolades. All of the contributors to this volume, including the editor, for the most part ignore important points in the first few chapters of Genesis. 1) God speaking the creation into existence; 2) the Fall and it's ramifications (the various curses and introduction of death); 3) the supposedly historically accurate reports of great life spans prior to the Flood; 4) the Judgment of Yahweh on sin in the Flood (and by extension the Apostle Peter's reminder of a future judgment by fire); and 5) the divine origin of human languages. One item worth noting is the simple, yet interesting, chart on the classification of the sciences by Arthur Peacocke (Theology for a Scientific Age) as modified by Nancey Murphy (Reconciling Theology and Science) -- perhaps their books will shed more light on the topic of Science and Christianity than this work compiled by Richard F. Carlson.
Great views!!
A very helpful dialogue...whatever your view. |
