A conference to celebrate and interact with Darwinism, on the 200th anniversary of Darwin’s birth and the 150th anniversary of On the Origin of Species.
What impact has evolution had on the world and on belief? How does Darwinism challenge traditional Christian faith? What does evolution really mean in a theological sense? How has evolution changed and challenged theology and what can theology contribute to the conversation surrounding human origins and meaning. University of Auckland Associate Professor Ruth Barton is among those presenting at the conference.
