Spiritual Evolution

Spiritual Evolution: Scientists Discuss Their Beliefs describes the intellectual and emotional journeys traveled by esteemed scientists worldwide. Authors share the personal steps they have taken to blend an understanding of the Divine with their scientific perspectives. Charles Birch, S. Jocelyn Bell Burnell, Larry Dossey, Owen Gingerich, Peter E. Hodgson, Stanley L. Jaki, Arthur Peacocke, John Polkinghorne, Russell Stannard, and Carl Friedrich von Weizsacker offer accounts of their spirituality and scientific inquiry. Noting the impact of religious upbringing, academic and spiritual mentors, personal devotional practice, and study, these authors make a compelling case for the blending of both scientific and spiritual worlds. They share insights that keep them attending church, engaging in prayer, and continuing the search to understand the Infinite. "We learned that there are physical laws and moral laws. If you disregard the law of gravitation, you get hurt. If you ignore the Church's moral teaching, then you also get hurt." -Peter E. Hodgson "The universe has a stunning set of specificities whose investigation is our great intellectual stepping stone to the recognition of the One who IS." -Stanley L. Jaki "Belief structures are affairs of the head as well as the heart." -S. Jocelyn Bell Burnell Highlights A reconciliation between science and faith Statements from famous scientists about their personal journeys "'Belief in God does not conflict with the rigid principles by which men and women of science must test the truths of their scientific discoveries, asserts Templeton. Ten top scientists, including biologists, chemists, and physicists, offer testament to that statement." -NAPRA Review
