Has Science Got Rid of God?

Customer Rating :

Are science and God incompatible? In this book John Blanchard tackles this age-old question that still troubles many thoughtful people today and gives a clear and convincing answer, drawing on material from some of the greatest scientists in history. Easy to read and packed with excellent illustrations.

"Aided and abetted by the mass media, those who insist that science makes Christian faith untenable grow increasingly strident. In this readable and scintillating response John Blanchard answers these claims with facts, clarity and impeccable logic. This book will encourage Christians and challenge those who are not. It should be read by both." - Professor Edgar Andrews, B.Sc., Ph.D., D.Sc., F.Inst.P., F.I.M., C.Eng., C.Phys, Emeritus Professor of Materials Science, University of London.

"This book is a welcome ally to one who has spent over twenty years trying to persuade students that true science and the Bible are compatible. In a culture that drip-feeds us propaganda, pseudoscience and downright lies on the subject we desperately need such a resource to help us break down the deep-rooted prejudice that prevents our generation from taking Christianity seriously." - Steve Layfield, B.A, Head of Science, Emmanuel College, Gateshead.

"With the skill of a neurosurgeon, John Blanchard deals with the false assumptions behind the idea that science and God are incompatible. In this rational and honest approach he demonstrates that far from being non-existent, God is the source and sustainer of all true science and scientific principles." - Dr. James D. Blankenship, M.D., M.B.A., F.A.A.F.P., C.H.E., President and CEO, Empower-MD.com., Springfield, Missouri, USA.

"In this exciting, compact and closely reasoned book, Dr Blanchard ably maintains a high view of science while demonstrating its inability to answer life’s ultimate questions or meet our deepest needs. With pithy quotations and in a readable style he shows how worldviews that dispense with God inevitably lead to chaos and despair." - Edgar Powell, B.Sc., M.Sc., PGCE, DipRSA, Comp.Science, Head of ICT/Computing, Chislehurst and Sidcup Grammar School.

"John Blanchard has done it again! With his usual clarity, wit and competency he dispatches the popular myths that science has all the answers to questions about human life and the meaning of the universe, that science has disproved God’s existence or rendered him unnecessary, and that biblical Christianity is at odds with the scientific enterprise. His lucid and interesting approach will prove an immense help to Christians and non-Christians alike." - Dr. J. Ligon Duncan III, B.A., M.Div., M.A., Ph.D., Senior Minister, First Presbterian Church, Jackson, Mississippi, USA.
