520 |a In recent years, several scholars have hinted at a resemblance between Maximus the Confessor's logoi cosmology and evolutionary biology. In this article, I develop these suggestions further and claim that the logoi (divine ideas or wills) do indeed behave in an evolutionary fashion, diverging hierarchically and interactively from the Logos. However, there the similarity ends, for the logoi are also purposeful, inviolable, and good, unlike evolution which is said to be random, ever-changing, and cruel. But rather than abandon the logoi-evolution congruity, I argue that, by harnessing theological resources from across the Eastern tradition, one can integrate Maximus' logoi vision more fully, resulting in an "incarnationally panentheistic" model of God's action and presence in evolution. More speculatively, within canonical Darwinism, the underlying (good) evolutionary motion of the logoi might be discernible in variation and adaptation, with the "evil" of competition and natural selection being "garments of skin" conceded by God as part of a simultaneous creation and cosmic fall.
