Résumé:It has been argued that divine creation should be understood solely in a metaphysical and theological sense, and not within the context of modern cosmology and biology. In this way, any conflict between science and religion is totally avoided. William Carroll is a scholar of Aquinas who has justified this position, citing arguments made by Thomas, specifically that creation does not involve change. Here, I argue that this is a major distortion of Aquinas’ views and that the ontology of creation formulated is fundamentally incoherent.
