THE CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST OF LATTER-DAY SAINTS AND SCIENCE (eBook, ePUB)

A TRILOGY OF RECONCILIATION APPROACHES

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

The first section of the trilogy deals with epistemology. The approaches to determine what is true in the author's religion and science use are discussed, and shown to be somewhat similar. The fundamental beliefs of both religion and science are based on metaphysical assumptions that cannot be proven true with empirical evidence. In the second part of the trilogy, seven essential metaphysical assumptions of the author's faith are discussed. They are shown to be reasonable beliefs based on respected theories of quantum physics, relativity, the big bang, superstrings, evolution, psychology, geology and anthropology. The third section of the trilogy deals with beliefs about the creation of the earth. Each of the seven days of the creation story in Genesis are reinterpreted based on the finding of science, and beliefs of the LDS Church. This includes a form of evolution and pre-Adamic man. It is consistent with the writer's religious faith.
