The Frontiers of Science and Faith John Jefferson Davis Published by Science

Description:
Fascinating. No other word more accurately describes The Frontiers of Science and Faith by John Jefferson Davis. He looks at several cutting-edge scientific theories from a decidedly conservative theological mindset, and finds that, when properly understood, many scientific theories offer no real threat to Christian doctrine. Davis is neither too critical of science (he acknowledges the successes and validity of science), nor is he too enamored with science (he repeatedly affirms that science alone cannot answer human existential questions).

Most of the scientific terms will be familiar to readers, including: Big Bang; quantum mechanics; chaos theory; artificial intelligence; progressive creation; the anthropic principle; extraterrestrial life; the ultimate fate of the universe. While the terms are familiar, the science behind those terms may not be quite as familiar to readers, so Davis analyzes them from his background in physics. His analysis shows that none of these controversial issues directly contradict any major Christian doctrines.

Davis does a masterful job of balancing his Reformed faith with his knowledge as a scientist (he was a physics major at Duke University). He is uncompromising in his support for Christian doctrines of creation, salvation, and personhood. But he is also willing to accept that science, when properly directed, is a search for truth, as is theology. So he does not view science as wrong or anti-Christian; he sees science and religion as complementary fields of study seeking the same goal of truth.

Davis maintains his biblical principles, and argues that we do not have to choose between the Bible and science. Scientific integrity and honesty is not, as some would argue, in conflict with the revealed truths in Scripture. Davis shows us a broad knowledge of both science and theology, and his love for God as seen through both the Bible and through science is clearly seen in every sentence. Thus he offers us a truly fascinating look at the theological implications of science and the scientific implications of theology.
