| Summary: | “My first concern will be to show that present knowledge has not precluded reflection about the universe. My second concern will be to show that our inability to determine whether the universe is dependent, taken in isolation, is of not particular importance. It is not therefore surprising that theologians today neglect reflection on the natural universe. But when the question of the status of the universe is considered in conjunction with other matters, there is good reason to affirm that the universe is dependent on God. Such an affirmation forms an indispensable basis for theological reflection on history, society, and the nature of man.” |
