In 2019, Michal Chaberek, O.P. raises the question, “Why are classical metaphysics and theistic evolution incompatible?”
His inquiry appears in the journal Studia Gilsoniana (volume 8(1), pages 47-81).
These comments re-articulate Chaberek’s arguments in light of prior works, including ‘Speculations on Thomism and Evolution’ and ‘Comments on Dennis Venema and Scot McKnight Book’s (2017) “Adam and the Genome”’. These works rely on the category-based nested form, derived from the philosophy of Charles S. Peirce.
The results are striking. Chaberek’s barbs pass through theistic evolution and strike atheistic materialism, as well as necessity and chance. Over the course of his argument, a new image of ‘species in theory’ and ‘species in observation’ appear on the philosophical and scientific levels of a three-level interscope.
In sum, Chaberek accomplishes what theistic evolutionists have not. He exposes the current normal contexts and potentials of biological evolution and opens the door to their replacement. Theistic entanglement replaces atheistic materialism. Divine providence replaces necessity and chance.
