Ndi ufulu wodabwitsa?

Zoonadi, kapena ayi, zaufulu zakhala nkhani yotsutsana pakati pa asayansi, anthanthi, akatswiri azaumulungu – ndi okonda moganizira kwambiri (kapena kungokangana chabe) wa anthu wamba. Sindikukumbukira kuti ndi liti pamene nkhaniyo inandifika pamtima: koma zinali m'zaka zanga za maphunziro apamwamba ku yunivesite, za ine, nkhaniyo idadziwika kuchokera ku magwero atatu.

Ndinali pafupi ndi chiyambi cha chaka changa chomaliza cha digiri ya ulemu mu 'Liberal Studies in Science’ – maphunziro yotakata kwambiri kuphimba nthambi zambiri za sayansi yamakono, komanso mbiri yake, filosofi ndi chikhalidwe cha anthu, ndipo mphunzitsi wanga amandikakamiza kuti ndikhazikike pamutu wankhani yanga. Kudziwa chidwi changa mu biology komanso zauzimu, adandiuza kuti ndithane ndi chikhalidwe cha malingaliro: koma ndinkafuna kuti ntchito yanga ikhale yothandiza pa phunzirolo, ndipo izi zinkawoneka kwa ine ngati mutu waukulu kwambiri komanso wongopeka kuti upereke chiyembekezo chofika paziganizo zilizonse zothandiza pakanthawi kochepa..

Nthawi yomweyo, nkhani iyi yaufulu inabweretsedwa molunjika kwa ine kuchokera ku magwero awiri osiyana. Yoyamba inali mndandanda wa nkhani ndi makalata, makamaka m’magazini a New Scientist pansi pa mutu wake, 'Mthunzi wa Mizimu.’ Izi zinatsutsana ngati kumvetsetsa kwathu kowonjezereka kwa ubongo kumatanthauza kuti malingaliro athu anali osapeŵeka, ndipo potsirizira pake zodziwikiratu, zotsatira za malamulo achilengedwe a chilengedwe ndi kumverera kwathu kukhala omasuka kusankha zosaposa kutengeka konyenga. Chachiwiri chinali kugawanikana koopsa kwa Christian Union ya yunivesite pa ziphunzitso zotsutsana za Calvinism (zomwe zimatsindika kulamulira kotheratu kwa Mulungu) ndi Armenianism (zomwe zimatsindika ufulu wa munthu wosankha tsogolo lake). Kodi zowoneka ngati zotsutsanazi zitha kuyanjanitsidwa, kapena ichi chinali chitsanzo chapamwamba cha Baibulo lodzitsutsa lokha?

Werengani…Osati makina
