The concept of a divine design has traditionally been based on the
assumption of a world order. If there is order in creation, this
proves there is a God: if disorder, then no God. Or so it has been
assumed by design proponents as well as their critics. This volume
questions the picture. The sciences of complexity show how nature
abounds with fluid and semi-stable patterns which are essential for
the emergence and further propagation of evolutionary order. Order
and disorder seem to wander together. The fact that fundamental
physics, chemistry and mathematics appear as if tuned for the
emergence and harbouring of life, for the support and channelling
of the evolutionary processes of creation and selection, continues
to trigger religious awe and reflection. It is also argued that a
Christian theology has the potential of affirming instability and
transient orders as part of the "grandeur" of creation. Authors of
the essays in this work include prominent voices from the secular,
the Protestant, the Catholic and the Orthodox traditions.
