The Biologos Foundation

[Jetavan]

Introducing the Biologos Foundation:

Dr. Francis Collins established The BioLogos Foundation to engage America’s escalating culture war between science and faith. On one side of the conversation, the “new atheists” argue that science removes the need for God. On the other side, religious fundamentalists argue that the Bible requires us to reject much of modern science. Many scientists, believers, and members of the general public do not find these options attractive.

There is therefore a great need to contribute to the public voice that represents the harmony of science and faith. BioLogos addresses the core themes of science and religion, and emphasizes the compatibility of Christian faith with what science has discovered about the origins of the universe and life.  In order to communicate this message to the general public, The BioLogos Foundation has created BioLogos.org.

Seems sort of interesting.  I really don't hold a position on evolution and creationism anymore; I kind of stopped caring.  I'm sure at some point that I will have to examine if there is any real friction between the two.  I guess at this point I would classify myself as a non-committed theistic evolutionist.  I have a suspicion that there must be some component of the implications of evolutionary biology that I am missing; that it somehow profoundly undermines the idea that man was especially created in God's image and not an "accident", but I really haven't explored the issues in any depth.
