Evolutionary theology
Evolutionary theology explores the idea that biological evolution and religious belief can coexist by seeing evolution as a process through which a divine or spiritual presence guides or sustains creation. It views evolution not as conflicting with faith but as a means through which a higher power brings about life’s diversity and complexity. This perspective encourages examining scientific findings alongside spiritual beliefs, suggesting that God's creative influence can operate through natural processes like evolution, blending scientific understanding with theological reflection.
