In the beginning, God designed. Not with blueprints or building codes, but with breath, beauty, and boundless compassion. Mountains were shaped, birds were feathered, whales were weighed in oceans of purpose. Every creature, from the lion to the ladybird, was part of this divine composition—made not for utility, but| Sarx
The Patristic Understanding of Creation encapsulates what the Church Fathers had to say, in their own words, on the topic of creation. Going back to Roman and Byzantine times, the writings of the Church Fathers are basic to Christian theology and provide a benchmark for how Christians have traditionally understood creation. This understanding of creation, however, faces tremendous challenges in Read More ›Source| Books – Discovery Institute
The scientist who has been dubbed the “Father of Intelligent Design” and author of the groundbreaking book Darwin’s Black Box contends that recent scientific discoveries further disprove Darwinism and strengthen the case for an intelligent creator. In his controversial bestseller Darwin’s Black Box, biochemist Michael Behe challenged Darwin’s theory of evolution, arguing that science itself has proven that intelligent design is a better Read More ›Source| Books – Discovery Institute
Four Views on Creation, Evolution, and Intelligent Design presents the current “state of the conversation” about origins among evangelicals representing four key positions: The contributors offer their best defense of their position addressing questions such as: What is your position on origins – understood broadly to include the physical universe, life, and human beings in particular?

To show the substantial incompatibility (contradiction) between Thomas Aquinas’s teachings and theistic evolution we need to refer to the two levels of his intellectual enterprise. One is the level of philosophy (metaphysics); the other is the level of theology. Whereas philosophy is based entirely on the principles of natural reason and being (reality) without the help of revelation, theology is Read More ›Source| Books – Discovery Institute
By John W. Kleinig I am fascinated by the slogans that people wear on their sweatshirts. They tell us a lot about them and their convictions. There are two that caught my eye at an airport some years ago. The first, which has since become quite common, was: “My body, my choice!” The second, which is far too long to become popular, was even more telling. It ran: “Your body may be a temple, but mine’s an amusement park!” These slogans show how many people regard their bodies in our so...| The Lutheran Witness

When Paul wrote his first letter to the believers in the city of Corinth which is recorded in the New Testament portion of the Bible, there was a common heretical teaching within Judaism that claimed there was no resurrection of the dead. This teaching originated from the party of the Sadducees, who would have been considered the "liberal" wing of Judaism then, while the Pharisees would have been considered the "conservative" wing. As the New Testament Jews began to embrace the Gospel and the...| Health Impact News

One objection to theistic arguments from design is that it seems as though God could have achieved most (if not all) of the goods of creating finite beings without bothering to make a physical world, complete with finely-tuned constants, life-permitting laws, and so on. As Neil Manson puts the objection:The problem here for proponents of the fine-tuning argument is that, if God| Jim Reilly's Philosophy Blog

While perusing Alexander Pruss' blog, I came across a post in which he offers this quote from Aquinas:Hence we must say that the distinction and multitude of things come from the intention of the first agent, who is God. For He brought things into being in order that His goodness might be communicated to creatures, and be represented by them; and because His goodness could not be adequately represented by one creature alone, He produced many and diverse creatures, that what was wanting to one...| Jim Reilly's Philosophy Blog

Michael Huemer is an interesting guy. I don't have hard data on this, but I'm fairly confident that he's the only philosopher working today who simultaneously advocates veganism, anarcho-capitalism, agnosticism, and substance dualism. As such, it was not terribly surprising to find that he also believes in reincarnation, having defended the idea in a (very interesting) 2019 paper in Nous. The gist of Huemer's argument is as follows:If you were to live at most once in the history of the univer...| Jim Reilly's Philosophy Blog
