"Chance
and Order in Science and Theology," S. Paul Schilling, Boston
University School of Theology. Theology Today, 1991.
- "If randomness alone were in the saddle, the horse would gallop in all directions, or remain in the stall. If chaos is to be averted or overcome, there needs to be some unitary principle, some overall order, some ground of stability, within which new species emerge and development takes place. Utterly unrestrained chance could not account for the connectedness, the interrelationships, or the dependable order of the world we know. That world exhibits determinateness as well as uncertainty, law as well as randomness. A view that takes account of both features is both more rational and more in accord with the facts."

Demons: Jewish Demonology in Biblical, Talmudic and Medieval Times," an interview

Month": Fantastic Creatures.
