Depends On Who You Are And What You Already Believe

Those who come to this book not willing to rationally entertain any evidence or idea that contradicts their preconceived notions (that God does not exist, evolution is absolutely true, and Jesus is just a man) will find little value in this work--or any work, for that matter, regardless of its scholarship or reliability.Yet, the one who comes to this book as a seeker of truth and not one who believes he has absolutely already found it without question will find reasonable and rational evidence in support of the authenticity of Christianity that should be carefully considered as the search for truth continues.It also contains some great resources on various translations of the Bible that will allow the reader to discuss the legitimacy of each based on knowledge rather than conjecture.In summary...Hardened skeptics will disdain its content. Devoted Christians will embrace its content. Seekers of truth will appreciate its content as a good supply of food for thought.

Valuable resource for the layman.

"Reasons" provides easily understandable refutation of Darwinism. McDowell and Stewart demonstrate the irrationality of evolution and how it flies in the face of scientific fact. Other books on the subject are more comprehensive; this book is intended as a resource for quick information. Chapters are brief and concise. Footnotes are provided for those wishing to pursue more indepth research. This book is in my top ten for easy apologetics.
