Is Intelligent Design Science, Religion or ?
Dr.
S. Brian Stratton, associate professor of religion and philosophy and
an ordained minister in the Presbyterian Church (USA), frequently
delivers presentations on Intelligent Design. While sympathetic to some
of the goals of the Intelligent Design Movement, Stratton questions
whether intelligent design threatens to undermine the intellectual
credibility of Christian faith.
He has written numerous articles on the relationship between science and religion. He is author of Coherence, Consonance, and Conversation: The Interaction of Theology, Philosophy, and Natural Science in the Quest for a Unified World-View (University Press of America, 2000).
Stratton presented “Intelligent Design: Science, Religion, Or ... ?” as the second of three major lectures sponsored by the Rhodes-Memphis Colloquium on Religion and Science at Rhodes College in Tennessee. He recently presented at the Einstein, God and Time Conference in Oxford, England.
At Alma College, Stratton teaches an annual course in religion and science and his research interests include philosophical theology, the relationship between theology, philosophy and natural science, and constructive theology. He earned his bachelor of arts degree from Pikeville College and his M.Div. and a Ph.D. from Princeton Theological Seminary.
