Description
Summary:Continuous creation refers to a theological concept at the frontier between philosophy and theology. It takes into account the dynamism of the creative act in time, seeking to give meaning to natural novelty that the modern sciences can help to describe. The concept of continuous creation renews the theology of creation in order better to dialogue with culture and meet the challenges of our times, but also in order to give the believer tools for seeking inspiration for living according to the integral ecology and thus being good stewards of our common home. This article therefore explores the theological possibility of thinking continuous creation in a cosmological perspective leading to anthropology within the contingency of natural phenomena.
