COMING ALIVE—PART 3
The Roots of our Vitality, Ingredients for a
Contemporary Theology of Evolution.
Does our ever-increasing knowledge about the interdependence
of all things lead us towards a more compassionate civilization?
What makes sociability possible? What makes us come
alive? What are the implications for the future if we allow the
springs of our psychic zest to dry up, to wither and die? How
will we respond to the evolutionary impulse to evolve that is the
unmistakable sign of life? The key reading is Making Sense of
Evolution: Darwin, God, and the Drama of Life by J. F. Haught.
This course acts as a follow-up to Parts 1 and 2, and builds on the
insights of the previous parts.
