The Signal in the Noise : Another Kind of Theism (9781502706423)



This brief text challenges readers who believe religious faith is "belief without evidence" to critically test their assumptions. In doing so, an alternative view of theism is presented in which religion and science not only coexist but can be meaningfully connected, and questions about God could have surprising new answers.The book covers four broad topics. First, throughout the history of the Church theologians have presented a view of religious faith that complements rather than contradicts science, but does contradict many assumptions about faith common today. This is illustrated via a series of quotations. Exposure to this fact is essential for both critics of religion and for believers wrestling with the nature of their faith. Second, the relationship between science and faith is explored. Third, I attempt to provide a working definition of God that goes beyond just complaining about atheistic straw men. Finally, the feasibility of theism in the face of well-known theological problems, in particular the problem of evil, is discussed.I hope the book will be of use to two kinds of readers especially: atheists who are open to counter-arguments, and believers who are concerned that their faith seems to require them to believe irrational things.

Sea and Land : An Environmental History of the Caribbean (9780197555446)

Sea and Land provides an in-depth environmental history of the Caribbean to ca 1850, with a coda that takes the story into the modern era. It explores the mixing, movement, and displacement of peoples and the parallel ecological mixing of animals, plants, microbes from Africa, Europe, elsewhere in the Americas, and as far away as Asia. It examines first the arrival of Native American to the region and the environmental transformations that followed. It then turns to the even more dramatic changes that accompanied the arrival of Europeans and Africans in the fifteenth century. Throughout it argues that the constant arrival, dispersal, and mingling of new plants and animals gave rise to a creole ecology. Particular attention is given to the emergence of Black slavery, sugarcane, and the plantation system, an unholy trinity that thoroughly transformed the region's demographic and physical landscapes and made the Caribbean a vital site in the creation of the modern western world.
