Discussion: Topic: Why Not Advancement?
Naturalistic evolution, process theology, and the idea of inevitable progress have dominated much of the cultural and intellectual landscape. These concepts believe that biological life is evolving into something better, science will one day solve all of our problems, and progress is inevitable. L.
