LOVIT!!

interesting + informative + 100% truth (with enough evidence to convince anyone who wants to be convinced) + easy and light read = one awesome book :) highly recommend to anyone interested in learning more about Judaism

does a good job refuting evolution

Beyond Reasonable Doubt is an excellent, readable, scholarly apologetics book well worth the time and effort to read. It has two excellent detailed chapters on why macroevolution is not compatible with Judaism (chapter 1 and appendix G). He covers the major scientific problems of getting life from simple organic molecules, why the fossil record clearly disproved macroevolution, why mutations as a whole always cause genetic meltdown, and other topics related to the scientific validity of evolution. Waldman also covers why the Hebrew Scriptures are scientifically valid when they touch on science topics. He is one of the growing number of Jewish scientists, academics, and scholars that have in recent years come out of the closet and openly declared that Darwinism does not only not explain how life originated, but that the scientific facts demonstrate that macroevolution could not, and did not, occur.

A great explanation for God's work in Jewish history

The author explains, very clearly, why there is a God, how the Torah originated from God, discusses life after death (his logic was very reassuring to me), God's influence in Jewish history, and explains God's foreknowledge and our free will. He also discusses the theory of evolution. This book was easy to read and I enjoyed it very much. It was also informative to read his appendix topics, such as The Oral Law, Can God Give Himself a Cold that Even He Can't Cure?, and Resurrection of the Dead.

Affirmation of all I "knew" to be true

I have already purchased 5 copies of this book to share with my friends who are also on their spiritual journeys. This book confirms in black and white many beliefs that I have always "known" to be true but was never taught in my Reform Jewish education. The part of the book discussing the truths of nature in itself makes the book well worth reading. This book will be a good resource for you in any discussion you might have on facts versus fiction regarding creation as opposed to evolution. I highly recommend this book!

This Book Is A "Must Have"

I read the book beyond a reasonable doubt by Rabbi Shmuel Waldman and I must say that I loved it so much that I couldn't even put it down! I read this great book more than five times and I constantly read over some of the different chapters in it all of the time. This book shows how the world must have been created by a creator and it knocks out the misleading lies of evolution. It shows that the bible must have been given at sinai and it shows eternal existance. The book shows divine providence in jewish history and plenty more. I feel that it's a great book in fact many of my friends have read it and they have all really enjoyed it alot. It is a "must read" for all young and old alike.
