Can a Christian believe what the scientists say? This book considers the big issues around human consciousness, the origins of the universe, evolution and intelligent design. We can look at science and religion and see conflict; or we can separate them into different worlds. This book helps the reader understand both sides of this 'conflict' and how they throw light on each other's approach. Of particular interest is what we are learning about personality, mind and psychology, and where consciousness comes from. This book suggests several different paths through the debates that surround science and religion. These paths offer ways of holding a rational interest in the world and scientific attempts to understand it and a lively and questioning faith in God which takes the Bible seriously.
Science and religion have always been at each other's throats, right?
Unique graphic introductions to big ideas and thinkers, written by experts in the field.
The relationship between religion and science is undoubtedly one of the key issues of our times. Suitable for undergraduate students, this book examines the many complexities of the relationship between religion and science.
