Religious Views on Science: FROM CREATION TO EVOLUTION (Faith and reason)

By: Carl, Charles C.

RELIGIOUS VIEWS ON SCIENCE
From Creation to Evolution
(Faith and Reason)

For centuries, faith and science have walked a complex and fascinating path-sometimes in harmony, sometimes in conflict. Religious Views on Science explores how the world's major religions have understood, challenged, and adapted to scientific discoveries, from ancient cosmologies and creation stories to modern debates over evolution, genetics, and the origins of the universe.

Readers will discover how Christianity wrestled with the ideas of Galileo and Darwin, how Islam's Golden Age fostered scientific inquiry alongside faith, how Hinduism and Buddhism integrate cosmology within cycles of creation and rebirth, and how Judaism continues to interpret the Torah in light of modern knowledge. The book examines moments of tension-such as the trial of Galileo or the rise of evolutionary theory-while also highlighting times when faith inspired scientific curiosity and moral responsibility.

Written in clear and balanced language, Religious Views on Science shows that the relationship between faith and reason is not simply one of opposition but of dialogue. It explores how religious thinkers, philosophers, and scientists have sought to understand the mysteries of life and the universe through both revelation and observation.

Ideal for students, educators, and curious readers, this book offers an engaging overview of how belief systems evolve in response to new discoveries. It invites reflection on one enduring question: can faith and science coexist as partners in humanity's search for truth?
