Book Synopsis Evolution: Scripture and Nature Say Yes by : Denis Lamoureux
Download or read book Evolution: Scripture and Nature Say Yes written by Denis Lamoureux and published by Zondervan. This book was released on 2016-11-15 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christians throughout history have believed that God reveals himself both through Scripture and nature. The metaphor of God’s Two Books is often used to represent these two divine revelations. The Book of God’s Words is the Bible. Scripture reveals inerrant spiritual truths. These include, the God of Christianity is the Creator of the heavens and the earth, the creation is very good, and only humans are created in the Image of God (Gen. 1:1, 27, 31). The Book of God’s Works is the physical world. Nature declares God’s glory, eternal power, and divine nature (Ps. 19:1; Rom. 1:20). Through the gift of science, our Creator has blessed us with the ability to explore and understand the structure, operation, and origin of his creation. Together God’s Two Books offer us a complementary divine revelation of who created the world and how he created it. A majority of Americans view science and religion as being in conflict, according to the Pew Research Center. Christians and non-Christians alike share this view, yet if this perceived conflict misrepresents the relationship between modern science and Christian faith, then it is both unhelpful and unnecessary today. In Evolution: Scripture and Nature Say Yes, theologian and scientist Denis O. Lamoureux reviews several options for embracing biblical Christianity and findings of science, including biological evolution. Holding to a high view of Scripture alongside an expert appreciation for scientific discovery, Lamoureux further outlines a way to understand passages referring to the natural world in the Bible and also demonstrates how modern science can point toward God. Lamoureux shares his own story along the way, recounting struggles many readers will relate to on his journey toward PhDs in both theology and biology and a fruitful relationship between the two. Topics in this book include: A biblical model of intelligent design in nature based on Psalm 19 and Romans 1. Examination of the ancient science in Scripture, such as a flat earth and 3-tier universe. Comparison of different Christian views on origins—young earth creation, progressive creation (old earth creation), and evolutionary creation. Criticisms of the atheistic interpretation of evolution held by Richard Dawkins and his belief that intelligent design is merely an illusion. Galileo’s peaceful relationship between Scripture and nature, including his view that “the intention of the Holy Spirit [in the Bible] is to teach us how one goes to heaven, and not how heaven goes.” Darwin’s religious beliefs and evidence of the impact that intelligent design had on him throughout his life, along with his claim, “It seems to me absurd to doubt that a man may be an ardent Theist [personal God] and an evolutionist.” Believers wanting to honor God’s Two Books—Scripture and Nature—faithfully and without conflict will find an excellent introduction in Evolution: Scripture and Nature Say Yes.

Book Synopsis Christian Ethics and the Moral Psychologies by : Don S. Browning
Download or read book Christian Ethics and the Moral Psychologies written by Don S. Browning and published by Wm. B. Eerdmans Publishing. This book was released on 2006-05-17 with total page 264 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Interest in psychology permeates our culture, with psychological solutions advanced for a host of moral dilemmas. How should ethically minded Christians include insights from such disciplines as psychoanalysis, cognitive moral development, and neuroscience in their theological reflection? Don Browning offers a serious proposal for combining these disciplines with the best in ethical reflection from a Christian standpoint. Along the way, he introduces readers to the moral psychology work of Sigmund Freud, Carol Gilligan, Antonio Damasio, and others, opening up a dialogue between their work and the hermeneutics of Hans-Georg Gadamer and Paul Ricoeur. Browning also recognizes the potential limits of the conversation between Christian ethics and the moral psychologies, pointing out where they must diverge.
Book Synopsis Where Darwin Meets the Bible by : Larry A. Witham
Download or read book Where Darwin Meets the Bible written by Larry A. Witham and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2002-11-07 with total page 339 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The conflict between creationists and evolutionists has raged ever since the publication of On the Origin of Species in 1859. And yet, even as generations of Americans have fought and re-fought the same battles, the contours of the debate have in recent years shifted dramatically. Tracking the dizzying rhetorical heights and opportunistic political lows of this controversy, Larry Witham travels to America's churches, schools, universities, museums, and government agencies to present creationists and evolutionists in their own unfiltered voices. We meet leading creationists and proponents of Intelligent Design such as Michael Behe; evolutionists such as Richard Dawkins; and theistic scientists who describe how they reconcile God and Nature. Today, Biblical literalism is tempered by the Intelligent Design movement, which finds evidence of God's presence in nature's patterns. The once-dominant "young earth" school has been replaced by a creationism that conscripts the language of science to advance the creationist cause. Meanwhile, evolutionary scientists hesitate to point out gaps in their theories for fear that such self-scrutiny could serve as fodder for anti-evolution propaganda. In an age marked both by a rising religious tide and daily scientific breakthroughs, Where Darwin Meets the Bible provides the standard account of this lasting conflict.

Book Synopsis Human Sin Or Social Sin by : Paul Dachslager
Download or read book Human Sin Or Social Sin written by Paul Dachslager and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-05-20 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: --The Book That Caused a Scientific Revolution-- Is the West today a unified or diverse culture? The orthodox position is that we should be strictly unified around the ideal of diversity. The idealistic vision is that we achieve redemption by angrily rejecting our immoral, fallen history, and lovingly embrace the sunny future of diversity. Heaven is Nature and the perfectly loving and diverse future; Hell is the disdainful and divisive past. Today, ethical and scientific facts that imply hellish disdain, and not love, are experienced as domineering or a "hegemonic discourse" and are worthy of attack: "Subvert the Dominant Paradigm!"-Walter Burkert, the eminent historian of religion said of this model, "Many thanks for the startlingly insights." The nineteenth century was unified by exalting high culture and disliking nature and diversity. We today have inverted this; we are unified by disdain for high culture, and love for nature and diversity: so joyful, altruistic feelings exist between those in the group who embrace the new unity-but they direct antagonism toward outsiders. Today's new unity, as described in Human Sin or Social Sin, inspired evolutionary psychologists to reconsider the theory of group selection for altruism. Two of the central theses in the book have passed peer review by the Human Behavior and Evolution Society. Appendix one contains two paper abstracts that can be cited. "For the select few who appreciate a masterful weaving of history, philosophy and the arts (from grand opera to the movies) the book is a tour de force. Reading it is like a return to college. For those concerned about the state of modern life, it is a must read." -Robert Weissberg, Ph.D., Professor of Political Science, New York University. "Modern sleep and dream science teaches us, as does Human Sin or Social Sin that all human activity, including art and politics are products of the human brain and that each of us has the privilege and responsibility of using it actively and communicating its creations." -Dr. J. Allan Hobson, Professor of Psychiatry, Emeritus, Harvard Medical School, author of Dreaming: An Introduction to the Science of Sleep (Oxford University Press, 2004). "Paul Dachslager might as well have added the subtitle to his book "The Changing Nature of Western Symbolism." The author focuses on the shifts in the meanings of Western symbols, be they of ethical or aesthetical nature, and he explains their different interpretations within different socio-political epochs. The author displays considerable erudition as he puts his description into a wider historical perspective. The work is backed by solid bibliography and numerous quotations from classics. The Western man's obsession with the feelings of guilt and self-hate, which the author depicts in a very succinct manner, might qualify his book as a sequel to Spengler's and Toynbee's premonitions of the final death of the West." - Dr. Tom Sunic, Author of Postmortem Report: Cultural Examinations from Postmodernity.
Book Synopsis Biblical Love Psychology by : Funom Theophilus Makama
Download or read book Biblical Love Psychology written by Funom Theophilus Makama and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2013-04-24 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating Psychology which is applicable to all love relationships; its uniqueness is centered on its practical revelation and timeless application in real life. This book is hence, in no way a relationship manual or guide but an eye opener to love, which complements other psychologies already in place by including other elements such as "the perfect square formula" and the "Agape Graph". It doesn't just stop there, it also brings to light, love as an evidence of God's manifestation to man, while also addressing controversial issues such as God's existence (since He is love); the love of Animals and material things such as money and as well, the falsehood of Love's role in the Bible, in the provocation of the 21st century feminism. It also extensively addresses love's significance in issues of Hell or the Lake of Fire and why God, who is Love is capable of sending some of His creation there. We did not stop here but went further to further buttress its significance in the trinity, the seemingly "submit to your husband" and "weaker vessels" controversy, also clearing the air on the issue of Blasphemy.Take a journey through this book and get yourself richly informed and blessed.

Book Synopsis Evolutionary Theories and Religious Traditions by : Bernard Lightman
Download or read book Evolutionary Theories and Religious Traditions written by Bernard Lightman and published by University of Pittsburgh Press. This book was released on 2023-11-21 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before the advent of radio, conceptions of the relationship between science and religion circulated through periodicals, journals, and books, influencing the worldviews of intellectuals and a wider public. In this volume, historians of science and religion examine that relationship through diverse mediums, geographic contexts, and religious traditions. Spanning within and beyond Europe and North America, chapters emphasize underexamined regions—New Zealand, Australia, India, Argentina, Sri Lanka, Egypt, and the Ottoman Empire—and major religions of the world, including Christianity, Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, and Islam; interactions between those traditions; as well as atheism, monism, and agnosticism. As they focus on evolution and human origins, contributors draw attention to European scientists other than Darwin who played a significant role in the dissemination of evolutionary ideas; for some, those ideas provided the key to understanding every aspect of human culture, including religion. They also highlight central figures in national contexts, many of whom were not scientists, who appropriated scientific theories for their own purposes. Taking a local, national, transnational, and global approach to the study of science and religion, this volume begins to capture the complexity of cultural engagement with evolution and religion in the long nineteenth century.
