Source:Science & Christian Belief, Volume 18, Number 2, p.169-179 (2006)ISBN:09544194URL:http://search.ebscohost.com.proxy.library.cornell.edu:2048/login.aspx?direct=true&db=aph&AN=22322057&site=ehost-liveKeywords:GOD; INTELLECT; NATURAL theology; RELIGION & science; THEOLOGYAbstract:The article focuses on the existence of modern natural theology. Natural theology can be defined as the attempt to learn something of God from reflection on general experience rather than from specific revelatory events. The new natural theology is modest about its relationship to science as well as modest in its account of its relationship to the total body of theological thought. Natural theology is able to place science's laws of nature in a wider context of intelligibility.Notes:J1: Science & Christian Belief; M3: Article; Polkinghorne, John; Source Information: Oct2006, Vol. 18 Issue 2, p169; Subject Term: GODSubject Term: INTELLECTSubject Term: NATURAL theologySubject Term: RELIGION & scienceSubject Term: THEOLOGY; Number of Pages: 11p; Document Type: Article |
