For millennia plant and animal species have received little
sustained attention as subjects of Christian theology and ethics in
their own right. Focused on the human dilemma of sin and redemptive
grace, theology has considered the doctrine of creation to be
mainly an overture to the main drama of human being`s relationship
to God. What value does the natural world have within the framework
of religious belief? The crisis of biodiversity in our day, when
species are going extinct at more than 1,000 times the natural
rate, renders this question acutely important.Standard perspectives
need to be realigned; theology needs to look out of the window, so
to speak as well as in the mirror. Ask the Beasts: Darwin and the
God of Love leads to the conclusion that love of the natural world
is an intrinsic element of faith in God and that far from being an
add-on, ecological care is at the centre of moral life.
