Customer Reviews

an excellent ballanced look at science and faith

This is an excellent, even-handed examination of how thoughtful Christianity and responsible science can co-exist. The authors examine the basic principles underlying most of today's "hot topics" in science and ethics (evolution, abortion, cloning, the environment, etc.) and give the reader the facts they need to come to their own understanding of what is "right." This book does not assume that all good Christians will agree on these dificult issues, but they do assume that we need to be responsible in thinking them through. I really appreciated the way they focussed on the science behind the issues and the basic relevant biblical principles behind the debate, and then let their reader come to his/her own conclusion.
