God is love" is the fundamental revelation of Christianity. Therefore, creation must be God's gift. The gift is his God's Word that is God but because God gives his Word away to creation, it belongs to creation- creation can do with it whatever nature "decides" to do with it. As a consequence, nature is capable of constructing itself,. This, however, is the main result of modern science. Nature brings forth novelties from "matter" to consciousness and self-consciousness in human beings. Mind emerged like anything else in the universe through the essentially historical (probabilistic) process of general evolution. Throughout the entire universe it is unification of diversity into unity that brings forth new existence. It is the old insight that all existence depends on being united into one. Unification of diversity (quantitative or qualitative) into unity brings forth new existence. This has been described as the Gestalt phenomenon, that the whole is more, quantitatively and qualitatively, than its parts. Actually, this basic phenomenon is no better known as the phenomenon of emergence; synthesis brings forth emergent novelties. Synthesis, however, is creative not only in nature but also in art. In the present writing this is illustrated with two examples, one from the history of music, from Gregorian chants to J.S. Bach, the other from the life history of the painter Vasilly Kandinsky. Synthesis, the unification of diversity into unity brings forth new existence universally. This ontological structure of all created being is interpreted as the watermark of the Triune Word of God in the absolute difference of creation. Therefore, the thesis of this booklet is that God can be God in that which is not God. The eyes of faith can see this illogicality also in the Eucharist and in the Christmas event. There too, God proves that he can be God in that, which is not God; in the Eucharist bread and wine, and a human being in the mystery of Christmas. For our logic, something cannot be that, which it is not but this is no obstacle for God's logic of incarnation.
The Art and Science of Analyzing Software Data provides valuable information on analysis techniques often used to derive insight from software data. This book shares best practices in the field generated by leading data scientists, collected from their experience training software engineering students and practitioners to master data science. The book covers topics such as the analysis of security data, code reviews, app stores, log files, and user telemetry, among others. It covers a wide variety of techniques such as co-change analysis, text analysis, topic analysis, and concept analysis, as well as advanced topics such as release planning and generation of source code comments. It includes stories from the trenches from expert data scientists illustrating how to apply data analysis in industry and open source, present results to stakeholders, and drive decisions. - Presents best practices, hints, and tips to analyze data and apply tools in data science projects - Presents research methods and case studies that have emerged over the past few years to further understanding of software data - Shares stories from the trenches of successful data science initiatives in industry
For all the discussion in the media about creationism and 'Intelligent Design', virtually nothing has been said about the evidence in question - the evidence for evolution by natural selection. Yet, as this succinct and important book shows, that evidence is vast, varied, and magnificent, and drawn from many disparate fields of science. The very latest research is uncovering a stream of evidence revealing evolution in action - from the actual observation of a species splitting into two, to new fossil discoveries, to the deciphering of the evidence stored in our genome. Why Evolution is True weaves together the many threads of modern work in genetics, palaeontology, geology, molecular biology, anatomy, and development to demonstrate the 'indelible stamp' of the processes first proposed by Darwin. It is a crisp, lucid, and accessible statement that will leave no one with an open mind in any doubt about the truth of evolution.
A defense of the scientific view of creationism.
With the explosive increase in availability of English Bible translations, the question can easily be asked, "Why bother with the hard work of biblical exegesis?" Computers can translate foreign languages and our English texts can take us very close to the original meanings, so why exegete? Answer: because the deepest truths of the Bible are found through the deepest study. This book teaches the principles, methods, and fundamentals of exegeting the New Testament. It also has examples of textual exegesis that clearly and helpfully show the value of exegeting a text well. Any serious student of Scripture would benefit from utilizing this book in the study of the Bible.
Theologian Brun examines evolution, natural religion and art to develop a doctrine of creation. Examples of polyphonic music and art by Vasily Kandinsky are included to illustrate Brun's thesis.
Peter Harrison takes what we think we know about science and religion, dismantles it, and puts it back together again in a provocative new way. It is a mistake to assume, as most do, that the activities and achievements that are usually labeled religious and scientific have been more or less enduring features of the cultural landscape of the West. Harrison, by setting out the history of science and religion to see when and where they come into being and to trace their mutations over timereveals how distinctively Western and modern they are. Only in the past few hundred years have religious beliefs and practices been bounded by a common notion and set apart from the secular. And the idea of the natural sciences as discrete activities conducted in isolation from religious and moral concerns is even more recent, dating from the nineteenth century. Putting the so-called opposition between religion and science into historical perspective, as Harrison does here for the first time, has profound implications for our understanding of the present and future relations between them.
