Publisher Description: A thinking person can hardly avoid developing some kind of pattern within which to express a personal reaction to both scientific and theological inputs. Bube works to clarify the identity of these possible patterns for relating science and the Christian faith, to give examples, and to provide a balanced critique of each. Such an understanding of the issues involved is essential for mature Christians living in a world dominated by the concepts and artifacts of science. Contents: A Look at the Issues; Authentic Science; Authentic Christian Theology; Pattern 1: Science Has Destroyed Christian Theology; Pattern 2: Christian Theology in Spite of Science; Pattern 3: Science and Christian Theology are Unrelated; Pattern 4: Science Demands Christian Theology; Pattern 5: Science Redefines Christian Theology; Pattern 6: A New Synthesis of Science and Christian Theology; Pattern 7: Christian Theology and Science: Complementary Insights; Epilogue: A Christian Philosophy of Science. |
