| Summary: | This paper owes much to the ideas, insights and inspiration of a group of people brought together in Mexico City in August 1975 at the behest of the World Council of Churches for a consultation on the Christian Faith and the Changing Face of Science and Technology. I have drawn freely on their written papers and their report (published in Anticipation No. 22) believing that this important work needs to be interpreted and made much more widely known. I have also drawn on the fertile ideas of a number of British scientists and philosophers, notably Sir Bernard Lovell the astronomer, and Professor Derek Bryce-Smith the chemist, who have given us, from their studies of the incomprehensibly vast universe and the infinitesimally small atom, a picture of a universe with a truly remarkable property: the ability to produce life. |
