""Creation" is conflicted territory lately. Scientific accounts of evolution are assailed by biblical literalists. Literalists are contradicted by biblical scholars, theologians, and scientists. And evolutionary theory itself has been revisited by more recent developments in science, notably chaos theory." "Scientist and theologian Sjoerd Bonting here offers a new overarching framework for thinking about these issues. His book first offers an original model for the religion-science discussion, then looks at the creation controversy itself, including biblical perspectives, traditional doctrines, and the particular potential contribution of chaos theory. Finally, Bonting extends this perspective, a combination of chaos theory and chaos theology that he calls "double chaos," into a framework that addresses traditional questions about evil, divine agency, soteriology, the understanding of disease, the possibility of extraterrestrial life, and the future."
