About this title

Synopsis

Are naturalistic evolution and Christian creation irreconcilable ideologies? In this collection of B B Warfield's writings, editors Mark A Noll and David N Livingstone demonstrate that theologians have not always thought so. Around the turn of the twentieth century, Princeton theologian B B Warfield believed that synthesizing his commitment to the scientific validity of evolution and to the inerrancy of the Bible was an attainable theological task. By drawing reasonable distinctions among Darwinism, Charles Darwin, and evolution, he was able to accept the probability of evolution while denying the implications of full-blown Darwinism. In the realm of inerrancy and evolution, Warfield's writings exemplify civil Christian scholarship and shrewd scientific discernment. His articles speak for themselves and inform the contemporary dialogue between science and theology.
