Minds, Brains, Souls and Gods

Minds, Brains, Souls and Gods,Do I have a soul?How free am I?What makes me uniquely human?Does my brain have a &quote;God spot&quote;?In this hypothetical correspondence with a student, Jeeves argues that we must avoid false choices in the relation between Scripture and science. Christians need not choose between a &quote;God of the gaps&quote; that competes with science, a &quote;neurotheology&quote; that bases our understanding of God on the latest scientific theory, or a scientific reductionism that claims to have explained God away as a mere function of the brain. Students encountering the brave new world of neuroscience need not view such research as a threat to the faith. With the wisdom of a seasoned scholar, Jeeves guides us down the road less-traveled-the way of integration.
