Cosmology and theology share a long held relationship with one
another, explaining as they do the constitution of the World and
the interaction of forces. The author explores the history of this
relationship, from ancient pre-scientific and theological,
explanations through to contemporary science and philosophy. In
this history, a particular problem is highlighted by the author:
the prevalence of dualism; from Aristotelian philosophy to modern
mechanistic conceptions, many of these accounts presume a sharp,
absolute dichotomy between matter and spirit, and the material
world and the divine. Increasingly, dualistic conceptions are
called into question by contemporary science, theology, and
philosophy. The author argues that a particular trajectory stemming
from Greek Heraclitian and Platonic philosophy to non-orthodox and
early Christian theologies provides a fruitful resource for
contemporary discussions. This is the Logos theology and its
attendant language of light. The author brings this tradition into
dialogue with contemporary science and theology to construct an
integrative account.
