Evolutionary Theology

From Salon:

Evolution remains the thorniest issue in the ongoing debate over science and religion. But for all the yelling between creationists and scientists, there's one perspective that's largely absent from public discussions about evolution. We rarely hear from religious believers who accept the standard Darwinian account of evolution. It's a shame because there's an important question at stake: How can a person of faith reconcile the apparently random, meaningless process of evolution with belief in God?


It's a good interview and the book looks interesting. Check it out.

I often wish you would blog more. Thanks for your words of encouragement. I do plan to still wear leather shoes and belts and such. I think I'll walk down and get some vegan toothpaste today, though.

We hear a lot more from devoted religious people these days who accept that evolution is fairly valid narrative of how we came about. I'm glad for that.
