Review:
Best read for me so far regarding the apparent
conflicts between scriptural stories and science - terrific book! I
consider myself "well read" when it comes to books trying to reconcile religion
and science -- this is the best one I have read by far. Well documented and
researched, the author clearly explains how "apparent" differences between
science and the stories of the Bible can be reconciled by understanding well
documented research and theories that demonstrate how the scriptural accounts
can also be supported by scientific application. I never realized how many
theories regarding geology, carbon dating, archaeology and so forth that are
accepted by the scientific community and the general public as "undeniable
truth" are in fact based on assumptions that have yet to be proved. I recommend
you read this book and decide for yourself. You will find this book well
written, enlightening and thought provoking.
