Tackles thorny questions and tensions at the intersection of
Scripture and science What does it mean for the Christian doctrine
of the Fall if there was no historical Adam? If humanity emerged
from nonhuman primates-as genetic, biological, and archaeological
evidence seems to suggest-then what are the implications for a
Christian understanding of human origins, including the origin of
sin? This book gathers a multidisciplinary, ecumenical team of
scholars to address these difficult questions from the perspectives
of biology, theology, history, Scripture, philosophy, and politics.
After mapping the territory of challenging questions surrounding
human origins and the Fall, the contributors delve into biblical
sources and traditional theological accounts as resources for
understanding, consider broader cultural implications of the Fall,
and propose ways of reimagining the conversation so as to move
forward faithfully.
