Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book traces the relationship between evolution as a scientific doctrine and religious thought over the last 160 years. The author examines how the conflict between Darwin's theory of evolution by natural selection in the mid 19th century and the doctrines of the Christian church led to a period of hostility and suspicion. Through a survey of theologians, naturalists and philosophers, amongst them Charles Babbage, Lyell, Strauss, Lecky and Darwin himself, the book reveals how this caused a reassessment of traditional religious views. The author argues that, although for a time the theory of evolution appeared to be incompatible with theism, over time a more nuanced understanding developed. Evolution came to be seen not as a threat to religion, but as a revelation of the scientific processes employed by a creative, intelligent and personal being. The conflict faded as theology and science were reconciled, each recognizing the other's necessary contribution to our understanding of the world and the human experience. This book is a valuable resource for readers interested in the historical intersection of natural science and religion.
