Does Evolution Really Threaten Religion? John Ostrowick 10.6084/m9.figshare.769334.v1 https://figshare.com/articles/journal_contribution/Does_Evolution_Really_Threaten_Religion_/769334 <p>Many proponents of the Abrahamic religions assume that the Theory of Evolution is ipso facto opposed to religion, and therefore, since religion derives from scripture, which is the divinely inspired word of an infallible God, the Theory of Evolution must be false. This paper argues that not only is this view incorrect, but that religion can be helped by accepting the Theory of Evolution. The paper will present a specific variety of the Problem of Evil known as Rowe’s ‘E2’, and try to show why existing responses to it fail. The paper argues, however, that Rowe’s E2 can be answered by the Theory of Evolution. --This is a prepublication edition.
