Contents:
Summary: This coherent collection of original papers marks the 150 year anniversary since the publication of Charles Darwin's Origin of Species (1859). Although the area of evolution-related publications is vast, the area of interaction between Darwinian ideas and specifically Catholic doctrine has received limited attention. This interaction is quite distinct from the one between Darwinism and the Christian tradition in general. Interest in Darwin from the Catholic viewpoint has recently been rekindled. The major causes of this include: (1) John Paul II's 'Message to the Pontifical Academy of Sciences
Introduction -- From the Origin to Humani Generis: Ireland as a case study -- Darwinism from Humani Generis to the present -- Aquinas and Darwin -- Teilhard de Chardin: evolution for a believing scientist -- Bernard Lonergan's transformation of the Darwinian worldview -- On evolution and intelligent design -- Weak Darwinism -- Darwin, ethics and evolution -- Darwinism, mind and society -- Darwinism and economics -- Intelligent design: science or faith? -- Evolution and the doctrine of creation -- Darwinism and moral theology -- Darwin, divine providence and the suffering of sentient life.
