God and Evolution

April 29, 2008

Check out this article in the New York Times today called “Roving Defender of Evolution, and Room for God.” The subject of the article is scientist and former Dominican priest, Francisco J. Ayala, who argues that belief in God and evolutionary theory are completely compatible.

This article reminded me of a paper I wrote not long ago on various views of the relationship of science and religion, based on the work of Templeton Prize winner Ian Barbour.

I’ll begin posting sections of that paper later today.
