Abstract

ABSTRACT

Inter-religious discussion on science and religion can help focus on neglected theological and metaphysical aspects. Here, I consider two examples of this: (1) the effect of models of divine action on design arguments, and (2) the effect of theological hermeneutics on the creation-evolution debate. Regarding design arguments, I analyze and respond to Shoaib A. Malik’s four Ashʿari criticisms of the design argument. Regarding theological hermeneutics, and building on Malik’s analysis, I use the debates over the Age of the Earth and the Flood as a test case of the differences between Christian and Muslim ways of interpretation.

神的设计和创造-进化辩论作为基督教-穆斯林对话的问题

摘要宗教间对科学和宗教的讨论有助于关注被忽视的神学和形而上学方面。在这里，我考虑两个例子:(1)神的行为模型对设计论证的影响，(2)神学解释学对创造-进化辩论的影响。关于设计论证，我分析并回应了Shoaib A. Malik对设计论证的四个Ash - al批评。关于神学解释学，在Malik分析的基础上，我用关于地球时代和洪水的争论作为基督教和穆斯林解释方式差异的测试案例。

期刊介绍： Membership of The Center for Theology and the Natural Sciences (CTNS) includes a subscription to Theology and Science . To become a member, please click here to view the current options. The primary editorial goal of Theology and Science is to publish critically reviewed articles that promote the creative mutual interaction between the natural sciences and theology. While the journal assumes the integrity of each domain, its primary aim is to explore this interaction in terms of the implications of the natural sciences for constructive research in philosophical and systematic theology, the philosophical and theological elements within and underlying theoretical research in the natural sciences, and the relations and interactions between theological and scientific methodologies. The secondary editorial goal is to monitor and critically assess debates and controversies arising in the broader field of science and religion. Thus, Theology and Science will investigate, analyze, and report on issues as they arise with the intention of prompting further academic discussion of them.This editorial policy is formulated with the guiding confidence that a serious dialogue between science and theology will lead to a variety of new and progressive research programs, and that these in turn will yield new insights, deeper understanding, and new knowledge at the frontiers of science and religion.
