Specificatii
In the century and a half since Darwin's Origin of Species, there
has been an ongoing--and often vociferously argued--conversation
about our species' place in creation and its relationship to a
Creator. A growing number of academic professionals see no conflict
between Darwin's view of life and the Christian faith. Dubbed
theistic evolution, this brand of Christianity holds that God has
used processes like Darwinian evolution to achieve his creation.
But is that true? Can Darwin's mechanism of natural selection
acting on chance mutations be reconciled with God's intentionality
in producing particular outcomes? Does humanity represent the apex
of his creation, or just an erasable and ephemeral signpost along a
path still being revealed? Does theistic evolution permit God to
intervene supernaturally in the workings of his creation? Can we as
humans be made in the image of God if we are just one of the
millions of products of evolution? Can we salvage concepts like
freewill, meaning, purpose, or an eternal soul within theistic
evolution? In this book, Wayne Rossiter assess theistic evolution,
and whether or not it is consistent with Christianity and secular
science. His conclusion is that it bears little resemblance to
classical Christianity, and promotes a century-old understanding of
evolutionary theory. Theistic evolution renders God a passive
player in creation, so far removed and undetectable that he
resembles a mere shadow of the Creator described in Christianity.
As if the thorny terrain separating Darwinism from Design were not
intimidating enough, Wayne Rossiter has parachuted into the
thickest patch, where people of faith are contending with one
another for the future of their faith. Loppers in one hand and a
machete in the other, he wastes no time. You may not agree with
every cut, but you have to admire his courage and you can't ignore
his arguments. --Douglas Axe, Director, Biologic Institute
Professors everywhere are pressuring students into accepting the
false view that neo-Darwinian evolution is scientifically correct
and friendly to Christianity. Shadow of Oz will give students--and
any other reader--the intellectual arguments to stand up and
explain why theistic evolution is poor philosophy, illogical
theology, and outdated science. --Casey Luskin, Research
Coordinator, Discovery Institute I highly recommend this book for
anyone who is seriously engaged in the question of how God
interacts with our world, typically cast as the debate between
theistic evolution and intelligent design. Just as C. G. Hunter's
book Darwin's God examined at length the theology of
nineteenth-century evolutionists, Rossiter's book takes a focused
and iconoclastic look at the theology of current theistic
evolutionists such as Kenneth Miller, Karl Giberson, Francis
Collins, and John Polkinghorne. Rossiter approaches the subject as
an expert in biology, well aware of the nuances of the arguments.
While I may disagree with some of his points, this book deserves to
take its place as one of the key review texts of the modern debate.
--David Snoke, Professor of Physics, University of Pittsburgh Wayne
Rossiter is Assistant Professor of Biology at Waynesburg
University.
