The Long War Against God: The History and Impact of the Creation/Evolution Conflict

by Henry M. Morris

Book Overview

In this compelling defense of the Bible, Dr. Henry Morris presents the theory of evolution as one of Satan's most devastating attacks against the Church. The Long War against God reveals the error of evolution and its aim to deny God, discredit His supernatural creation, and His sovereignty.

I'd give it a thousand stars if I could

When I was an atheist, I figured evolution was a radical new (and well proven) discovery of modern science. Then I read this brilliant book. I learned that it's an idea that has been around practically since the beginning of time. I also learned it's been foundational to just about every ugly thing that man has ever done to man, especially in the 20th century. Dr. Morris left his earthly tent behind in early 2006; I can't wait to thank him for this book especially.

Taking God's Word Seriously

I find it a sign of spiritual and intellectual imaturity when a young christian goes to the University, reads some books and then comes to Church and tries to debunk the Word of God based solely on human speculation. Well..."been there, done that". However, the more I read human stuff (and I read a lot of it for professional reasons), the more I realise that nothing compares to God's Word. Henry Morris is one of my favorite authors because he takes the Bible seriously. He starts from the Bible and debunks human "wisdom" (lack of it). That's the way to go. If you read what the Bible says about human wisdom, you have not choice but to do what Henry Morris does. Here are some points about the book that I would like to emphasise: 1) Evolution could not be God's method of creation. It is too cruel, inefficient and irrational. Jesus' nature (the incarnate WORD), life and character are a vivid refutation of evolution. 2) (remember that in 3 days Jesus rose again with a new body. He didn't need 3 billions of years of struggle, suffering and death to evolve one). 3) Evolution is part of different pagan traditions that developed (specially after Babel) in the darkness of sin. These traditions have always been with us. Platonism and Aristotelism are just to examples of how these traditions influenced christian theology (Augustine and Aquinas), because christian theologians thought that the Bible might be missing something. Henry Morris, followint the teachings of Jesus and His apostles (v.g. Peter, Paul) simply states that the Bible is not missing something. If one reads the Bible, one has to conclude that that's exactely what the Bible teaches about itself. 4) The Sermon of the Mount is the proof that God has nothing to do with survival of the fittest. Every time christians engage in deception, violence, murder and genocide (which unfortunately they have done), they are violating the laws of the Creator and showing that "all have sinned: all fall short of God's glorious ideal" Rom 3-23). 5) Contrary to popular belief, science hasn't proved evolution, nor could it, because evolution simply didin't happen. If you think science has proved evolution, think again: a) the origin of the universe and the origin of life remain a mistery. Even Miller and Urey have confessed that life may be much more complicated than they have thought. How can one affirm evolution as a fact when the first step (the origin of life) of it remains a profound mistery? The prebiotic soup and abiogenesis are nothing but a just-so story. b)It is still to be found a single mutation that is able to create new DNA information that codes for new functions and structures. Mutations reshuffle, duplicate sort, exchange, remove or maintain pre-existing information. They just don't create new information. Natural selection removes information. Speciation is not evolution. Creationist only deny the latter. They perfectly accept (and predict) natural selection and speciation. c) There are no trans

Must Read for All Christians

Faith in God or faith in man. Dr. Morris does an excellant job showing both the presuppositional framework behind each world view and the consequences of the ideas espoused.A must read!!!!!

The most important work of the twentieth century

The Long War Against God is arguably the most potent, significant and ground-breaking work, circum-investigating the general theo-social nature of life on earth, particularly in the twentieth century, that I have ever come across. Because of its potency and power, it will no doubt attract negative attention from scoffers and unbelievers. If I were an unbeliever, I would attack this book with all of my might. It totally undermines all secular, humanist-based philosophical ideas and leaves a trail of atheistic destruction.It is a must-read.

the best or the best

For a christian who wants to connect the dots and come up with where we have been in history and where we are heading this book has the answers. Besides the bible no other book even comes close to putting things into prospective as Dr. Morris does in the long War. Thank you Dr. Morris for helping to shape this christians life in a positive direction. you want to know where communism comes from its in there as are many answers to societies ill's. This is always the book that I recommend to others who are trying to put it all together from a christian prospective. Once again thank you Dr. Morris for this fine work and the giving of yourself.
