Darwinian Evolution and God
Christian Fundamentalists reject Darwinian evolution wholesale because, they believe, it contradicts the Biblical creation story. On the other hand, some scientists and intellectuals reject God wholesale because of the truth of Darwinian evolution. Common to both parties is the assumption of that the truth of one implies the falsity of the other.
What if both claims were true? What if God exists and participates in the evolution of life? What if the truth of Darwinian evolution makes belief in God more reasonable? Join Andrew Kerr, Speaker of the Free Congregation, as he offers a theology he calls terra-theism, the idea that God is a unique and vital part of the ecological and evolutionary community of life.
