Abstract:
The study of the thought of Saint Gregory of Nyssa is both never- ending and continuous. The identification of a scientific procedure in a series of observations made by the Saint underlines the parallel tracks taken by the various branches of Knowledge. For the branches of Theology and Biology, in particular, their shared interpretation of the role of the first reproductive gene in the creation of man constitutes a light significant reference.The reference made by Gregory of Nyssa to the non-sexual nature of the first reproductive gene falls within the evolutionary track of the “instantaneous” and the total process of the creation of man. This first reproductive gene is marked by the lack of any difference between the genders. This is namely the first censure and the overall origin of the human species.A similar consideration exists in the scientific field of Biology. Essentially, the uniqueness of each human being lies in the individual nature of each person. In the nucleus of each cell, one may find all information necessary for the making of a unique human being.During a steady evolutionary process, genetic polymorphism is achieved through the transmission of new structures created through gene mutation. At this early of evolution, the differentiation of reproductive cells had not yet been completed. There was essentially one gender only, since there was but one genetic variety.Steady movement, evolution, dynamic process and change constitute the common denominator between the thought of the Saint and the conclusions of the science of Biology. The scholarly dialogue of the sciences constitutes a steady and open challenge which diffuses into a series of individual topics. The evolving secular reality does not restrict itself to closed confines, but it follows a steady course. The enlargement, development and remolding of scientific thought into a two-way conversational and scientific relation constitutes a steady search, which represents an open contemplation of the future.
