Is it possible for God to accomplish his plan through chance events in the world? This is a key question, not only for a right understanding of the theories of evolution and natural selection, but more generally for experimental science as a whole. Contemporary sciences investigate things in the world -- this is to study them as secondary causes. But philosophy (and faith) can be sure that, whatever science discovers, the kind of causality that a creature has is never in competition with God’s transcendent and primary causality of the world and of every being in it. Fr. Dominic Legge, O.P., a Dominican friar from the Province of St. Joseph, explores how God is the source of what science studies.
Primary and Secondary Causality: Principles and Distinctions (Aquinas 101) - Fr. Dominic Legge, O.P.
