Has Science Made God Unnecessary?
Ransom Poythress
By professor of science
Logical arguments
Science and faith not mutually exclusive
There is a widespread assumption that there is no space for God in science, and no space for science in Christianity. This book addresses the question of whether the search for answers excludes belief in a Deity. Ransom Poythress’ logical and well–reasoned look at the common arguments is a riveting read for any with a genuine interest in pursuing truth.

Christian Focus
Through the use of simple yet powerful analogies, an easygoing pace, and excellent references for those who want to dig deeper, Poythress reaches any interested reader with an answer that affirms Christianity while respecting and encouraging the proper roles of science. This is a great book for any youth group, college class, or seeker to think through.

Ransom Poythress is both an accomplished biologist and a knowledgeable biblical scholar. His commitment is to both the craft of science and the awareness of the reasons people throw up objections to its compatibility with Christian faith. He writes in a sympathetic, non–combative manner which ought to disarm all but the most obdurate sceptic. A must read by anyone concerned with the so–called science–vs–religion controversy.
