theology of science, Michael HellerAbstract
The article deals with a concept which was proposed by Michael Heller, who argues that a new theological discipline should be created to deal with sciences and their results. The primary taks of the theology of science – it is the name of this new discipline – is to theologically analyze the fact of the existence of science and its results. The very idea of the theology of science is presented in the first part of the paper, then some issues that may interest this discipline are discussed. Special attention is paid to the problematics of creation, and to some strictly scientific issues that are directly related to this topic (e.g. the beginning of the universe, the evolution of life, the rationality of the world, the antropic principle, the existence of other intelligent beings in the universe).
