John F. Haught’s Views on Relation Between Science and Religion
Journal Title: Filozoficzne Aspekty Genezy - Year 2008, Vol 5, Issue 0
Abstract
Author discusses the theory proposed by John F. Haught who, cutting himself off from creationism and criticizing metaphysical materialism, tries to reconcile evolution with Biblical vision of the world. Considered here are the main suppositions of Haught’s theistic evolution: hierarchical vision of the world which in connection with hierarchy of explanations is supposed to account for necessity of combining the evolutionary theory with religious faith; metaphysics of the future which should explain theodicy problem; and aesthetic cosmological principle understood as an alternative to sociobiology and psychophysical dualism in the fields of ethics and ecology.
