Summary

Rather than approaching the divine action debate in abstract philosophical terms, Part 2 of this book has been devoted to exploring specific versions of theistic naturalism that are representative of the theological turn in science and religion. To that end, this chapter focuses on what I will call “panentheistic naturalism” – and particularly on the work of Orthodox theologian Christopher C. Knight. As Knight recognises, many of those who debate questions in the science-and-religion dialogue fail “to recognize fully the way in which the distinctive perspectives of particular theistic traditions might affect the answers given to those questions.”1
