Elements in the problems of God, |x2754-8724 500 Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 21 Mar 2025). 520 This Element explores the relevance of non-human animals to theology. It suggests that while Christian theology has so far been a thoroughly anthropocentric discipline, there are good reasons for treating animals as subjects worthy of theological reflection in their own right. The Element considers animals in the context of Christian ethics, investigates whether the violence and suffering found in evolutionary processes can be reconciled with a good God, and surveys some of the ways key theological doctrines may need to be altered in the light of what contemporary science teaches about human animals and non-humans. 650 0 Animals |xReligious aspects |xChristianity. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2008117592 650 0 Animal welfare |xReligious aspects |xChristianity. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh2019001157 650 0 Human-animal relationships |xReligious aspects. |0http://id.loc.gov/authorities/subjects/sh99010913 776 08 |iPrint version: |z9781009598392 830 0 Cambridge elements. |pElements in the problems of God |x2754-8724. 956 40 |uhttps://doi.org/10.1017/9781009296205
