Niewiadomski, Piotr2025-09-112025-09-112018Resovia Sacra, 2018, Tom 25, s. 255-271.1234-8880https://theo-logos.pl/handle/123456789/35799This article deals with two concepts of the genesis of religion. The first came from evolutionary anthropology, the second from the theology of religion. The relations of these concepts are presented in the context of the relationship between science and faith, especially – the reception of the theory of evolution by Catholicism. One example is the work of Robin Dunbar, in which he closely links the rise of religion to the process of anthropogenesis, and on the other, the revelatory concept of the genesis of religion, emphasizing the revelation by creatures and creatures. Although religious theologians, such as Marian Rusecki, have historically been skeptical about evolutionist-oriented religious studies, it is worth considering the possibility of a new reception for authors such as Dunbar, by the contemporary Church. Such a reception must be preceded by a reconciliation of terminology and the recognition of a philosophical background, which was indicated in this article. The article’s conclusions are distinguished by the promising compatibility of certain elements of both visions, the usefulness of the above mentioned reception resulting from the universality of the evolutionary paradigm in contemporary science and the noncontradiction of religion and science.plCC-BY-SA - Uznanie autorstwa - Na tych samych warunkachRobin Dunbarantropologiaobjawieniestworzenieantropogenezageneza religiiewolucjaantropologia Robina Dunbaraantropologia ewolucjonistycznaantropologia ewolucjonistyczna Robina Dunbarateologiateologia religiiteoria genezy religiireligiarelacja nauka-wiaranaukawiarateoria ewolucjikatolicyzmKościółrelacja nauka-religiaanthropologyrevelationcreationanthropogenesisgenesis of religionevolutionRobin Dunbar’s anthropologyevolutionary anthropologyRobin Dunbar’s evolutionary anthropologytheologytheology of religiontheory of the genesis of religionreligionscience-faith relationshipsciencefaiththeory of evolutionCatholicismChurchscience-religion relationshipArticle
