Questioning old stories with science-driven insight Discover how a careful reading of geology and history challenges familiar creation narratives and suggests a new way to understand the Bible's place in modern thought. This edition presents a clear case for evaluating religious texts in light of scientific knowledge.
Two short paragraphs frame the discussion: it traces how our understanding of earth’s history evolved from fantasy to evidence, and it argues for treating the Bible as a human record from a time of limited knowledge. The text invites readers to weigh faith, tradition, and discovery without fear, aiming for a more informed worldview.
- A concise argument that geology and fossil records can reshape beliefs about origins and purpose
- Plain language explanations of scientific ideas and their impact on religious interpretation
- A critique of scriptural harmony attempts, with emphasis on the value of honest inquiry
- Reflections on how science and belief might coexist in everyday life
Ideal for readers of history, science, and religious studies who want a thoughtful, accessible look at how new discoveries influence old ideas, and how to approach sacred texts with openness and critical thinking.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an exploration of the irreconcilable differences between the Biblical account of creation and the scientific theory of evolution. The author argues that the literal interpretation of the Genesis creation story is scientifically untenable, citing evidence from geology, astronomy, and biology. The book challenges the traditional view of the Bible as the infallible word of God and argues that it is a fallible human document that reflects the scientific understanding of its time. The author also critiques the use of biblical literalism to justify social and political oppression. Ultimately, the book argues that the conflict between science and religion is a false dichotomy and that both are essential for a comprehensive understanding of the world.
