New Blackfriars, 1977
The general credibility of theology was once widely held by theologians to depend on a successful natural theology. Today things are different. There are certainly some contemporary advocates of natural theology—and a few of these are even theologians; but it is presently fashionable to reject natural theology in the name of theology itself.

Blackfriars, 1954
Those who consider theology worth talking about, form perhaps a very small minority in the country; but at least, apart from Marxists, or humanists at our older Universities, very few of them would still maintain that it has finally been disposed of by science. Against the background threat of total destruction, modem efforts are preferably directed to

It is not a universally accepted view, but neither is it a shocking or novel one, that Hobbes was a critic of religion. So far from being novel, this was the view of many of Hobbes’s contemporaries, some of whom regarded him not just as a critic of religion but as a bitter enemy of it.

Natural theology aims at establishing truths or acquiring knowledge about God (or divine matters generally) using only our natural cognitive resources. The phrase ‘our natural cognitive resources’ identifies both the methods and data for natural theology: it relies on standard techniques of reasoning and facts or truths in principle available to all ...

Although Faraday’s early biographers emphasised his empiricism, historians of science have more recently sought to understand Faraday in terms of his theoretical commitments and have argued that his success resulted from his rich and insightful use of theoretical constructs such as the lines of force which he conceived permeating space.

It has been claimed that Natural Theology has been an incentive to the scientific investigation of nature and that, conversely, this investigation yields arguments in favour of it. Certainly some of the greatest scientists (Kepler, Boyle, Newton, Hutton) used their discipline to point to the power, wisdom and goodness of the Creator of all things.
