Quotes by John F. Haught (?)

“A greedy insistence that the whole of nature and life must present itself to our voracious demand for instantaneous intelligibility is a symptom of all world-shrinking ideology, whether religiously fundamentalist or scientifically materialist. In”

“This is the God of evolution— one who honors and respects the indeterminacy and narrative openness of creation, and in this way ennobles it.”

“Cardinal John Henry Newman (1801–90) expressed an exceptionally strong distaste for any theology that supports itself by leaning on the vapid criterion of design. Even before Darwin published the Origin of Species, Newman had written in 1852 that William Paley’s design-oriented natural theology could “not tell us one word about Christianity proper,” and that it “cannot be Christian, in any true sense, at all.” Paley’s brand of theology, Newman goes on, “tends, if it occupies the mind, to dispose it against Christianity.” For Newman, in other words, it is not the task of theology to discover a divine designer lurking immediately beneath or behind the data of biology or physics.7”
