I Very Much Enjoyed My Career In

I Was Very Much On The Mathematical Side, Where You Probably Do Your Best Work Before You're Forty-five. Having Passed That Significant Date, I Thought I Would Do Something Else.

Of Course, Nobody Would Deny The Importance Of Human Beings For Theological Thinking, But The Time Span Of History That Theologians Think About Is A Few Thousand Years Of Human Culture Rather Than The Fifteen Billion Years Of The History Of The Universe.

Science Cannot Tell Theology How To Construct A Doctrine Of Creation, But You Can't Construct A Doctrine Of Creation Without Taking Account Of The Age Of The Universe And The Evolutionary Character Of Cosmic History.

The Remarkable Insights That Science Affords Us Into The Intelligible Workings Of The World Cry Out For An Explanation More Profound Than That Which Itself Can Provide.

The Dialogue Between Them Can Only Be Mutually Enriching.
