Hi all--

While meandering on the Web, I came across a site concerned with "The
Ongoing Debate on Critical Realism and Theology."  It's associated with a
book entitled _God, Humanity and the Cosmos_, and evidently some of the
contributors maintain that theology is "a critical realist discipline."  I
didn't see RB mentioned anywhere (there are a lot of pages though), but the
explanations of CR seem on the mark, albeit very brief.  Some of the names
that do turn up are Ian Barbour and Arthur Peacocke, neither of which I
know.  Has anyone heard about this?  Has RB joined some larger current of
critical realist theology (of which many of us were unaware)?  Or is this
just a coincidence of other uses of the phrase "critical realism"?

The site is located at:

Thanks, T.
