"I'm an evolutionary biologist and a Christian," claims Stanford teacher Joan Roughgarden first of her groundbreaking new booklet, Evolution and Christian Beliefs: Reflections associated with an Evolutionary Biologist. From that perspective, she offers an elegant, deeply gratifying reconciliation of the theory of evolution and the wisdom of the Bible.
Perhaps only someone with Roughgarden's unique educational standing could examine so well controversial issues including the teaching of wise design in public universities, or the potential flaws in Darwin's theory of evolution. Certainly Roughgarden is distinctively suited to guide both the minutiae of scientific techniques and the implication of Biblical verses. If the matter is mutation rates and lizards or the concealed meanings behind St. Paul's characters, Evolution and Christian Beliefs distils sophisticated arguments into day-to-day understanding. Roughgarden has scoured the Bible and scanned the natural world, finding illustrations time and again, not of conflict, but of harmony.
The consequence can be an accessible and wise framework for a Christian perspective of the world that embraces science. In the ongoing debates over creationism and evolution, Evolution and Christian Beliefs will be seen as a work of major significance, written for modern day readers who speculate how-or if-they can accept scientific advances while preserving their traditional values.
