Where does life come from? Is it caused by God? Or does it result from a vast and complex interaction of causes within the world? Could the answer be: both? In this episode of Aquinas 101: Science and Faith, join Fr. Dominic Legge, O.P., a Dominican friar from the Province of St. Joseph, as he examines evolution and the emergence of life in light of the Biblical accounts of creation and Thomistic philosophical principles about creation and divine governance.

The topic of evolution, especially as it relates to the human person, is complex and can be difficult to navigate. To better understand a sound Thomistic approach to the question, please visit this page: https://aquinas101.thomisticinstitute.org/theory-of-evolution

This video is an excerpt from Lesson 43: Evolution and the Emergence of Life (Aquinas 101) by Fr. Dominic Legge, O.P. To explore the complete module, including supplemental readings and lectures, click here: https://aquinas101.thomisticinstitute.org/evolution-and-the-emergence-of-life
