520 |a Peter Hodgson, a nuclear physicist and fellow of Corpus Christi College, Oxford, has written a distinctive account of the interaction between theology and physics from ancient times to the present day. His central thesis is that it was in the Christian West that conditions were ripe for the development of science. Whilst it is an empirical fact that modern science did develop here, Hodgson gives plausible reasons why. Thus Christian theology emphasizes that the universe is the free creation of God and is good. It is contingent, so requiring experiment to discover its rational laws. Moreover, Christianity has a linear view of time, with the incarnation a unique event which serves further to ‘ennoble the creation’.
