Science versus religion? More like fear versus faith. It's deplorable that so many people have been conditioned to think that the natural world has been pit against its Creator, as if God's fingerprint isn't pressed into everything we've laid eyes upon. Lee Strobel, atheist when he began writing Case For A Creator, interviews scientists of various disciplines to see what the world has to say about creation theory. But don't even consider my opinion on the subject; this book is for sceptics and believers alike, and it isn't as preachy as you might think. Every theory presented herein is based on observable science, not blind faith. What will surely surprise you, though, is just how political the field of mainstream science really is.

Garbage. The author is horribly biased. There is no objectivity. He flouts his interviewee's degrees in the readers face yet rarely states exactly what they have a degree in. Do a little more research and you will discover few of them have degrees in the subject matter for which they were interviewed. Jonathan Wells, who is one of the few that actually has a degree related to the subject matter, had is third degree actually financed by a church to "disprove evolution." For someone who claims to have been a skeptic, it seems he went to all of the "experts" that held views quite contrary to the wide-held beliefs of the scientific community. Lee Strobel is a sham.

  Great apologetic book - especially for someone who believes science supports evolution or who wants to bolster their faith. This takes a scientific approach (in laymans terms) and lays out the evidence like a court case. The scientific evidence is overwhelmingly in favor of a creator. Many of the fallacies provided by mainstream textbooks that supposedly support darwinian evolution are shown for what they really. There are interviews and quotes from some very respected and intelligent scienti... (show more)

Many of the fallacies provided by mainstream textbooks that supposedly support darwinian evolution are shown for what they really. There are interviews and quotes from some very respected and intelligent scientists, many of whom were once either athiests or agnostics until they researched for themselves and put God to the test. I'm using this as research for a future sermon series but I encourage anyone to look into these claims for yourself. You might be surprised! (show less)

  The Case for a Creator is a book that every Christian should read in order to provide an educated and competent answer to the question "How do you support your belief in God?"

  Although atheists generally argue that belief in God is a primitive approach to explain the existence of the universe and life, and that modern science has disproved that approach, Lee Strobel successfully builds a case for the existence of God. Modern science actually affirms our belief in God.

  The Case for a Creator is a book that every Christian should read in order to provide an educated and competent answer to the question "How do you support your belief in God?"

  Although atheists generally argue that belief in God is a primitive approach to explain the existence of the universe and life, and that modern science has disproved that approach, Lee Strobel successfully builds a case for the existence of God. Modern science actually affirms our belief in God.

  While it is true that the scientific method cannot measure the existence of God, it is also true that the philosophical implications of modern science point toward an intelligent designer and creator of all things.

  Other books by Lee Strobel that every Christian should read are The Case for Faith, The Case for Christ, and the Case for the Real Jesus. Each of these books adds a new kind of evidence and support for our belief in God and His Son Jesus Christ. (show less)
