Review by bsmith2 -- God, Science and the Bible
God, Science and the Bible is an excellent book that dissects scientific principles, such as Newton’s Laws of Physics, The Big Bang theory, radiocarbon dating, evolution and demonstrates how they provide credence to the existence of God. Arnold V Page writes with biblical and scientific expertise in his analyses of how science and the Bible work together to support the evidence of design as a supernatural phenomenon. The aspiration of the author is not to create a debate about the existence of God but lay a foundation supporting God through science and why it is important to believe in God.
The existence of God and whether to believe or not to believe in God, Jesus, and heaven are all topics that have been discussed from the beginning of time. They have laid the foundation of countries and wars. Arnold V Page takes a scientific approach to proving God’s existence and hopes to answer questions for inquiring minds. This book covers a multitude of scientific and biblical topics with supporting data and sources in an easily understood format. Various topics are discussed from fossils found in sedimentary layers, tar pits, orbiting moons, how the earth spins, the resurrection of Jesus, and the biblical definition of a day. The author does an impressive job of explaining scientific concepts, such as the Laws of Thermodynamics, into comprehensible terminology for the non-science person or for those whose science knowledge is limited or rusty.
If you do not like science or discussions regarding faith in God, this book is not for you. Each chapter reviews a different topic supporting God in conjunction with applicable scientific terms or theories. Though easy to understand and aptly defined with addition resources referenced, the science presence is heavy. The book is designed to answer questions that current science pits against The Creation Theory. If you do not agree with the existence of God or the literal definition of the Creation Theory being completed in six days, you will need an open mind to complete this book.
This book garners a 4 out of 4-star rating. It was fascinating and engaging, easy to understand, and unique in its approach to proving the existence of God. I found a few instances regarding the omission of a comma, but the editing and grammar were superb.
This is a book for anyone between the ages of 10-110 that wants to create great conversation about the validity of science supporting God. A reading plan for the bible is referenced in the appendix. I plan to read more by this author.
