John F. Haught, Making Sense of Evolution: Darwin, God, and the Drama of Life

“Why does it fail? Because evolutionary materialism is compelled by the logic of its own belief system to make cosmic mindlessness the ultimate foundation and explanation of the human mind. In doing so, it provides no good reason for a materialist such as Crews to trust his own mind, as in fact he does whenever he makes any of his confident claims, including his declaration that materialism is the real truth of Darwinian science.”
John F. Haught, Making Sense of Evolution: Darwin, God, and the Drama of Life

“Christianity itself rose up from the ashes of a kind of design death. To his friends, Jesus’ own execution seemed, at least at first, to prove only the powerlessness of God to carry out the divine plan. Nevertheless, the early Christian community eventually came to interpret Jesus’ death by crucifixion as the decisive opening onto the final victory of life over death.”
