The BioLogos Foundation is a Christian advocacy group established by Francis Collins in 2007.

Response

The BioLogos Foundation has drawn criticism from both creationists and atheists. In response to a Time Magazine article about the foundation,[2] Jerry Coyne, a professor of biology at the University of Chicago and secularist, calls the foundation the "latest endeavor to forcibly marry science and faith" and "embarrassing in its single-minded fervor to prove that conservative Christianity and evolution are really good buddies."[3]

BioLogos has also received praise and positive responses. Supporters of The BioLogos Foundation include Washington Post columnist Kathleen Parker, who claims the Foundation's goal of "helping fundamentalists evolve can only be good for civilization."[4]
