Biology Through the Eyes of Faith
Biology through the Eyes of Faith
Richard T. Wright
This is an awesome book. It describes the outlook of biology not only through the eyes of faith, but from a Christian theistic point of view. In Biology through the Eyes of Faith, it explains the difference between a scientist’s perception of nature oppose to a Christian’s perception. Scientists say the world evolved which conflicts with the theistic view, which says the world came about through the creator God.
In chapter 1, Professor Wright speaks of the living world having many things to amaze us. Once nature catches out attention we realize that biology as a whole affects human life. Yet, many people still debate where life originated. He introduces two worldviews between the Natives and the Europeans who had two very different lifestyles. The European’s neglect to the land was the cause of the Native’s suffrage. Richard defines a worldview as a basic set of values to a way of living. As for Christians, the Bible provides their worldview.
In chapter 2, Professor Wright believes that someone’s knowledge of the relationship between God and his world is the foundation to truly understanding biology. People sometimes use terms to refer to the natural world such as cosmos, nature or creation. A naturalistic worldview believes nature came about through evolution. A theistic worldview believes God is the creator. Richard uses Genesis as a great witness to the maker of the world. Creation by his word and wisdom speaks of his great authority over the earth. The creation of life is a great example of God’s Supreme Being. Richard also speaks that creation is in obedience to God, and that the primary purpose of all creation is to bring glory to God. All creation should praise him.
In chapter 3, He describes an experiment to test natural bacteria in salt marshes with ribbed mussels. It demonstrated that scientists pay very little attention to the philosophical contours in their research. Richard believes most science
