Science, Theology, and Ethics

Science challenges faith to seek fuller understanding and faith challenges science to be socially and ethically responsible. This book begins with faith in God the Creator of the world and then expands our understanding of creation in light of Big Bang cosmology and new discoveries in physics. Examining the expanding frontier of genetic research, Peters draws out implications for theological understandings of human nature and freedom. The dialogue model of relationship between science and religion, proposed in this book, provides a common ground for the disparate voices among theologians, scientists and world religions. .
