Summary

In Chapters 1 and 2, we described how we will approach the intersection of Christology and biology. We located our exploration within the larger theology–science debate, indicating our realist assumptions about both theology and science. We also examined different models of the theology–science relationship, ahead of exploring the prospect of integration between Christology and biology. In this chapter and the next (Chapter 4), we review the relevant claims in these two areas, respectively: the Christian doctrine of the Incarnation and the findings of evolutionary biology.
