Sandstrom concludes by extending an olive branch to people in the different camps of evolution, divine Creation and Intelligent Design. He urges evolutionists to recognise the limits of naturalistic evolutionary theory and to resist turning it into an ideology. He shows how Intelligent Design Theory has become an ideology by insisting on its natural scientific legitimacy, when in fact it serves more accurately as a feature of science, philosophy and theology/worldview conversation. Young Earth Creationism is a view that cannot be taken seriously, whereas religious persons can honourably accept divine Creation, though not as a scientific theory. Human Extension cuts through the controversy on all sides and invites advocates of evolution, divine Creation and ID to consider its new contribution as social epistemology.
