Deeper than Darwin : The Prospect for Religion in the Age of Evolution

In his book God After Darwin,Ó Haught argued that religious belief is wholly compatible with evolutionary biology. Now, he says that, while Darwin's vision is essentially correct, religious belief is even more revealing about life than Darwinism. Looks at the question of how religions may plausibly claim to be bearers of truth & not just of meaning. While he assumes the fundamental correctness of evolutionary biology, he firmly rejects the non-scientific belief that evolutionary biology amounts to an adequate explanation of living phenomena. Darwinism is illuminating, but it does not tell us everything we need to know about life. To find the deepest understandings of life & the universe, we may still profitably consult the religions of the world.Haught, John F. is the author of 'Deeper than Darwin : The Prospect for Religion in the Age of Evolution', published 2005 under ISBN 9780756796662 and ISBN 0756796660.
