08h45-11h00 God and Contemporary Science In
this Templeton Award-winning presentation, Philip Clayton
defends the continuing viability of theistic belief in an age of science.
Designed as an introduction to the field of religion and science, this book
covers many of the major topics and thinkers in the contemporary discussion. It
defends in particular a panentheistic doctrine of God as the theological
position that best reconciles divine action and contemporary science.
Panentheism, on Clayton’s view, is the doctrine that the world exists within
the divine, although God is also more than the world.
Philip Clayton is the Ingraham Professor at Claremont School of
Theology in Claremont, California. Clayton has taught or held research
professorships at Williams College, California State University, Harvard
University, Cambridge University, and the University of Munich. His research
focuses on biological emergence, religion and science, process studies, and
contemporary issues in ecology, religion, and ethics. He is the recipient of
multiple research grants and international lectureships, as well as the author
of numerous books, including The Predicament of Belief: Science, Philosophy,
Faith (2011); Religion and Science: The Basics (2011); Transforming Christian
Theology: For Church and Society (2009); and In Quest of Freedom: The Emergence
of Spirit in the Natural World (2009). He also edited The Oxford Handbook of
Religion and Science (2006). In books and lectures, Clayton works to formulate
constructive theological responses to developments in contemporary science and
philosophy. He has also been a leading advocate for comparative theology and
the internationalization of the science-religion dialogue. As P.I. of the
“Science and the Spiritual Quest” program and as Provost of a multi-faith
university, he worked to expand these fields to include Muslim and Jewish scholars,
the Dharma traditions of India, and the religious traditions of Southeast Asia.
Complexity” is therefore not
(yet?) the Grand Unified Theory of cosmic evolution, a single scientific
framework adequate to describe all physical processes. Complexity does not
increase in a simple, straight-line fashion, any more than entropy does. Nor
are all emergent properties more complex than the lower-level systems that
produced them. We recognize that simpler systems combine to produce new, more
complex systems. But we don’t currently have sufficiently general language to
describe and quantify this process. This is one of the great scientific puzzles
of our day.
