by John F. Haught
Paperback / softback
Description
Esteemed theologian John Haught brings his considerable experience to a controversial and thought-provoking topic: evolution.
Writing within the formula of the well-known Responses to 101 Questions series, he gathers here questions that have arisen from conversations over the years with a variety of people-believers and scientific skeptics, those who embrace evolution and those who disdain it, and scholars and the scientifically uneducated. The questions fall into seven categories: Darwin's Revolutionary Idea; Darwin and Theology; Creationism; Darwin and Design; Divine Providence and Natural Selection; Evolution, Suffering and Redemption; and Teilhard de Chardin and Alfred North Whitehead.
They range from "Could life have originated by chance? to "What is creationism? and "What does our hope for 'redemption' really mean in the context of evolution?"Haught's responses, while addressed from the perspective of Christian tradition, can be useful to persons of other traditions as well.
The questions and answers, while following a progression, can be read separately and in random sequence for ease of use.
With this thoughtful and concise book, Haught makes a significant contribution to the ongoing conversation on this controversial and often explosive topic.
