Nancy Pearcey: We’re not in Kansas Anymore
For the more theologically inclined, there also appears an article on the impact of Darwinism on theology and philosophy, “Your Darwin Is Too Large: Evolution’s significance for theology has been greatly exaggerated.” Writer John Wilson concludes, “Much of the debate over Darwin and God has focused on the conflict between the naturalistic worldview of the Darwinian establishment (and of Darwin himself) and Christianity. That conflict is real, and urgent, and likely to grow more intense. But perhaps—perhaps—the implications of evolution for theology have been exaggerated by both sides. The arguments go back a long way, long before Charles Darwin set sail on the Beagle” (p. 56).
