Cynthia Crysdale and Neil Ormerod present a robust theology of God in light of supposed tensions between Christian belief and evolutionary science. Those who pit faith in an almighty and unchanging God over against a world in which chance is operative have it wrong on several accounts, they insist. Creator God, Evolving World clarifies a number of confused assumptions in an effort to redeem chance as an intelligible force interacting with stable patterns in nature.
A proper conception of probabilities and regularities in the worlds unfolding reveals neither random chaos nor a predetermined blueprint but a view of the universe as the fruit of both chance and necessity. By clarifying terms often used imprecisely in both scientific and theological discourse, the authors make the case that the role of chance in evolution neither mitigates Gods radical otherness from creation nor challenges the efficacy of Gods providence in the world. This view of God and the evolving world yields implications for our understanding of human action. Moral agency, even Gods work of redemption, unfolds according to an ethic of risk rather than by the quick fix of determinative control.
