Frequently, alleged irreconcilable conflicts between science and religion are instead misdescribed battles concerning negotiable philosophical assumptions - conflicts between metaphysics and metaphysics. Hud Hudson provides a two-stage illustration of this claim with respect to the putative inconsistency between the doctrines of The Fall and Original Sin and the deliverances of contemporary science. The tension in question emerges through a study of the many forms the religious doctrines have assumed over the centuries and through a review of some well-established scientific lessons on the origin and history of the universe and of human persons. The first stage: After surveying various paths of retreat which involve reinterpreting and impoverishing Original Sin and minimizing and dehistoricizing The Fall, one version of moderate realism about the doctrines is articulated, critically evaluated, and found both consistent with contemporary science and suitable to play a crucial role in the theist's confrontation with the Problem of Evil. The second stage: Recent work in the philosophy of time and in the philosophy of religion provides intriguing support for a Hypertime Hypothesis (a species of multiverse hypothesis), distinctive for positing a series of successive hypertimes, each of which hosts a spacetime block. After arguing that the Hypertime Hypothesis is a genuine epistemic possibility and critically discussing its impact on a number of debates in metaphysics and philosophy of religion, Hudson reveals a strategy for unabashed, extreme literalism concerning The Fall and Original Sin which nevertheless has the extraordinary and delightful feature of being thoroughly consistent with the reigning scientific orthodoxy.

Die erste Frau in der Bibel (»EVA« Gen 1-3) ist in der christlichen Geschichte und Tradition weitgehend zu einer negativen Figur geformt worden, zum Symbol für die Unzuverlässigkeit von Frauen, zur Verführerin und Ursache allen Übels.Diese Tradition ist auch heute noch nicht verschwunden. Die abendländische Philosophie, die stark dualistisch geprägt war - etwa mit den Gegensätzen Himmel/Erde, Geist/Körper, stark/schwach, Mann/Frau - hat dem weiblichen Teil immer die schlechtere Seite zugewiesen, die bessere dem Mann. Feministische Theologie und Genderforschung haben mittlerweile aber zu einem ganzheitlichen Verständnis von Körper, Leiblichkeit, Sexualität und Geschlechterrollen beigetragen. So ist es an der Zeit, Eva vor diesem Hintergrund neu zu betrachten. An den Bibeltexten selbst hat sich nichts geändert, aber das Bewusstsein einer einseitig auf den Mann fixierten Auslegung und ihrer Folgen ist gewachsen. Nicht nur bei Frauen, auch bei Männern. Ein neuer Blick auf die Texte selbst zeigt, dass die biblischen Verfasser nicht so frauenfeindlich waren, wie es oft dargestellt wird. Nur eine tendenziöse Auslegung, die die Vormachtstellung des Mannes stärken sollte, hat sie dazu gemacht.

Around the turn of the fifth century, Christian theologians and churchmen contested each other's orthodoxy and good repute by hurling charges of "Origenism" at their opponents. And although orthodoxy was more narrowly defined by that era than during Origen's lifetime in the third century, his speculative, Platonizing theology was not the only issue at stake in the Origenist controversy: "Origen" became a code word for nontheological complaints as well. Elizabeth Clark explores the theological and extra-theological implications of the dispute, uses social network analysis to explain the personal alliances and enmities of its participants, and suggests how it prefigured modern concerns with the status of representation, the social construction of the body, and praxis vis--vis theory. Shaped by the Trinitarian and ascetic debates, and later to influence clashes between Augustine and the Pelagians, the Origenist controversy intersected with patristic campaigns against pagan "idolatry" and Manichean and astrological determinism. Discussing Evagrius Ponticus, Epiphanius, Theophilus, Jerome, Shenute, and Rufinus in turn, Clark concludes by showing how Augustine's theory of original sin reconstructed the Origenist theory of the soul's pre-existence and "fall" into the body.Originally published in 1992.The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.
