About the BioLogos Forum
Favorites
The BioLogos Forum is designed to foster a serious and comprehensive discussion of Christian faith and the sciences. We believe that charitable engagement of different perspectives within the Church helps sharpen our thinking and deepen our commitment to the truth that is hidden in Christ. So while many of the articles and videos under the distinctive Forum banner come from BioLogos staff and Senior Fellows, we feature a range of voices, including those that disagree with us and with each other. Unless otherwise noted, views expressed are those of the authors, not necessarily of The BioLogos Foundation. You can read more about what we believe here, and join the conversation in the comments section at the end of each post.
Southern Baptist Voices: Teleological Arguments,Theistic Evolution and Intelligent Design
Dr. James Dew expresses three main concerns about theistic evolution in the initial post in this series: Is macro evolution actually true? How does theistic evolution portray God's creative activity? Is it consistent to reject ID but to affirm the anthropic principle? Dr. Ard Louis responds to these concerns in two follow-up posts.

Southern Baptist Voices: Teleological Arguments, Theistic Evolution, and Intelligent Design
Even though Southern Baptists are generally more comfortable with ID than we are with theistic evolution, we deeply respect the scientists and theologians who are trying to reconcile their faith with science in a way that is consistent and meaningful. In the end, we believe that what is actually true of the physical world will be perfectly consistent with Scripture.
Southern Baptist Voices: A Response to James Dew, Part 1
"In much the same way as earlier generations encountered evolution through a particularly ugly form of Social Darwinism, and not surprisingly then rejected it, many today, it seems, associate it with an amoral, materialist, hopeless, selfish outlook on life, which they are extremely reluctant to countersign and which turns them firmly against the theory."
Southern Baptist Voices: A Response to James Dew, Part 2
I can happily research the natural world and do normal science because science studies the regular ways that God sustains the universe, the “customs of the creator" to use some old-fashioned language. Besides, science derives its power precisely by limiting itself to studying things that are repeatable, or controllable. And you can’t control God.
