Summary: This is an excellent book arguing for design
Comment: This is what a teleological argument should look like. Moreland is concise and logical as always. Dhembski's philosophical spadework is GREAT. But Meyer's contribution seems a bit irrelevent. In terms of the actual evidence: Hugh Ross does a pretty good job in physics, cosmology, and astronomy. Bradly and Thraxton are EXCELLENT in analyzing the origin of life! Geologist Kurt P. Wise has some very clever arguments on the fossil record. The language guys are inferior, though. I am majoring in both philosophy and biology and enjoyed the combination of both science and philosophy. Usually books on evolution and such overkill on evidence without ever putting it in the form of a valid argument. And I am talking about both theists and non-theists. The book is written professionally so those who wish to do more research will find the endnotes and bibliography very helpful. esp Yockey's book.

Summary: Ah, the sound of minds snapping shut
Comment: As the negative reviewers below so well demonstrate, some folks will never accept the possibility of a Creator no matter what the evidence.

Listen to what evolutionary biologist, and neo-Darwinist Arthur Shapiro says about the authors of 'Creation Hypothesis': "If they are successful, the day will come when the editorial board of 'Science' will convene in emergency session to decide what to do about a paper which is or the highest quality and utterly unexceptionable, of great and broad interest, and which proceeds from the prior assumption of intelligent design. For a preview of that crisis, you should understand this book. Of course, if you are smug enough to think 'theistic science' is an oxymoron, you won't"

Summary: A good book
Comment: This was a good book, it covers many different areas as to why evolution is not possible (the kind evolutionists say lead to humans). I did think there was an error in the intro however where someone, not sure who, says that biologists have no business being philosophers, or he said it the other way around, either way. H ewas saying that people who were educated in the fields in universities had no business teaching what they weren't educated in, which of course, is wrong. You don't need to be educated in a university in a class and get straight A's or average grades to teach certain things in a field you weren't trained in, anymore than a Christians needs to be to say why evolution is wrong even though he doesn't know much about the intricacies of biology.

I also thought the book would have been good to explain why there is dash in front of the numbers that show the odds against a man evolving by chance, because I was told that there is no such thing as a negative probablity, of not, what is that dash there for? If anyone knows please email me at [email protected]

Other than the intro, like I said, this is a good book.
