求索于理性与信仰之间——德日进的进化论

Pilgrim between Reason and Faith:Teilhard and His Evolutionism

德日进既是一位成就卓著的科学家,又是一位重要的天主教神学家。他试图破除理性与信仰、科学与宗教、物质与精神间的壁垒,为人类的文明探索一条出路。德日进思想的核心是一种以基督为宇宙中心的进化论。他提出了复杂性—意识定律,认为复杂性和意识是同一个现象的两种表现。宇宙按照这一定律向着越来越复杂也越来越具有意识的方向演进,最终达到其最终的Ω点:基督。他还根据这一进化论的思想提出他自己的神义论观点。

Pierre Teilhard de Chardin is a famous scientist, and an important Catholic theologian as well. He commits himself to break the obstruction between reason and faith, science and religion, matter and spirit, thereby to find a new way for mankind. In the central of Teilhardianism is an evolutionism with Christ as the center of the universe. He alleges a Law of Complexity-Consciousness, holding that complexity and consciousness are two aspects of the same process： the Evolution. According to this law, the universe moves toward its final Ω point： Christ. Based upon this evolutionism, Theilhard developed his theodicy.
