Resumen

No diálogo (mais ou menos anguloso ou rombudo e com resultados divulgados popularmente de forma assaz descuidada) entre a fé cristã e as ciências naturais há um conjunto de temáticas, relacionadas com a Criação e o Cosmos, que, versando aparentemente sobre realidades idênticas, têm mantido incompreensões injustificadas. Este estudo dá atenção, sucintamente, em cinco dessas temáticas – que percorrem o arco do existente (passado, presente e futuro) – e tenta mostrar o que um crente cristão pode pensar e, se a ocasião se proporcionar, afirmar sustentadamente sobre elas.
