Faith in Science

Faith in Science

There is growing academic interest in addressing the relationship of religion and science. There are also very generous funding sources that encourage scientists to demonstrate the reality of purpose in the world. Still there are organizations offering support to community groups dedicated to discussing religion and science. Contributors explore this development in Faith in Science. The intellectual initiatives analyzed here seem far removed from the deep religious and cultural divisions that dominate the contemporary geopolitical landscape. This emerging industry however originates in a cultural debate that set the evolutionary view of Nature against revelation's conception of Nature as the fulfillment of God's creation. The two worldviews are hopelessly mismatched although scientific creationism purports to have uncovered scriptural evidence that invites another look. Along the way the imposition of theological themes onto the geological record became a tendency for many naturalists. Peter Medawar's scathing review of Teilhard de Chardin's The Phenomenon of Man in 1961 remains as a warning for those who mix Darwinian orthodoxy and theological parlance. The challenge Medawar would have us believe is not to abandon the exacting methods and logic of science in favor of a poetic dream of how consciousness is a manifestation of energy. But does this mean that science and religion are only methodologically demarcated? Must we insist on the traditional boundaries instituted by scientific conventions and religious beliefs? From various historical religious and scientific vantage points contributors to this volume who include Guy Consolmagno Donald Kraybill David Ray Griffin Gerald L. Schroeder Robert Pollack Robert Pennock Carol Wayne Wright Bill Durbin Kathleen Duffy and Anthony Matteo take up these challenges.

Democracy In Poland Second Edition

Democracy In Poland Second Edition

Ever-changing election rules a highly fluid party system a constitution considered illegitimate by more than one major political actor polarized political elites and a system of corruption that has grown up together with the young democracy itself -these characterize contemporary Polish politics. At the same time Poland is frequently identified as the most successful example of a transition from communism to capitalism having led this series of world-changing transitions. It has distanced itself from a turbulent history as pawn in Eastern Europe's international politics to become a leading candidate for membership in the exclusive European Union club. As Polish democratic politics evolves it is taking unexpected forms and producing equally unexpected results. Through a comprehensive analysis of politics in this young European democracy Marjorie Castle and Ray Taras explain the complexity and uncertainty of political processes and outcomes in Poland. Poland'spast -the flawed Second Republic established after World War I as well as the imperfect independence in the Soviet shadow following World War II's devastation - dramatizes the unique historic opportunity it was given in 1989 to determine its own political future and perhaps eventually become a major European power. Choices made in 1989 and thereafter would not only construct a new democracy but shape and limit its possibilities. The primary focus here is on contemporary politics: what the fundamental political cleavages are whether parties adequately represent popular interests who the political elites are and what games they play whatinfluence the Catholic Church still holds in an aspiring Western-style secular republic and what policy challenges face Poland in the future. Inimitable political leaders changing political arenas and complexpolicy-making processes come to life through a fascinating narrative characterized by an insider's insight. | Democracy In Poland Second Edition
