Why would anyone ask such an odd question about a possible connection between Christology and biology? Of course, here we mean the classic Christian doctrine of the Incarnation, as formulated by the Great Councils of the historic church, and the best information in contemporary biology, as presented in the best peer-reviewed scientific journals and texts. But, again, why would anyone be interested in pursuing answers to this very specific question? One reason is that both important areas, Christology and biology, have much to say about the nature of humanity. We must see if the respective narratives are compatible or incompatible. Another reason is that we seek a comprehensive worldview and must explore how Christology and evolutionary biology might fit in that overall conceptual framework.
