Résumé : |
Just when you thought there was nothing new to be said about the opening chapter of Genesis and science, “The Lost World or Genesis One” comes along!
Here is a book that calls out to be read and discussed widely and thoughtfully by serious-minded Christians, inquiring scientists, high school science teachers and students. Those entrenched on either side of the creation/evolution debate owe it to themselves and others to read and consider carefully John Walton’s evidence, arguments, insights and remarkable conclusions. |
