Evolution
An eager reader has been pressing us to feature a discussion on evolution. I tell him I am more than willing -- the topic represents such a timely and fascinatingly complex conjunction of theology, philosophy and science -- but I myself am not qualified to write on the subject. There have been several articles, papal statements and books written on Darwinism recently, any one of which could serve as a handy starting point for a great Concourse conversation. Might there be any science majors or professors out there willing to give it a try?
