This article explores hamartiological questions at the interface of evolutionary biology and theology. Such questions include the problem of evil, the possibility of a historical fall, and the meaning of human sinfulness in light of biology. First, I examine some of the leading accounts of animal theodicy, including John Schneider's aesthetic theodicy, Christopher Southgate's compound theodicy, and Joshua Moritz's free creatures’ defense. Second, I review several non-lapsarian accounts of how sin originated within the human story (e.g., Robert Russell's concept of entropy as the physical origin of sin). Then third, I discuss noteworthy attempts to revise the doctrine of original sin in light of evolutionary psychology. Although the quest for a post-Darwinian doctrine of sin has prompted fascinating areas of research, I conclude that an evolutionary hamartiology remains a remarkably difficult project.

进化论的神学问题

本文在进化生物学和神学的界面上探讨了hamartiological 问题。这些问题包括邪恶的问题、历史堕落的可能性，以及从生物学角度来看人类罪恶的意义。首先，我研究了一些关于动物神正论的主要论述，包括约翰施耐德的美学神正论、克里斯托弗索斯盖特的复合神正论和约书亚莫里茨的自由生物防御。其次，我回顾了几个关于罪恶如何起源于人类故事的非堕落者的描述（例如，罗伯特罗素的熵作为罪恶的物理起源的概念）。然后第三，我讨论了从进化心理学的角度修改原罪学说的值得注意的尝试。尽管对后达尔文主义罪恶教义的探索已经引发了令人着迷的研究领域，
