A short and weak defense of Biblical claims supported by modern day science. Rather than a full-throated examination of Biblical claims aligning with modern science, the author too frequently refers of other apologetic authors claiming vindication. The books strongest points are scored when Ray Comfort quotes know scientists admitting to the wonder and complexity of the universe or life itself. Mr. Comfort really drops the ball, however, when he makes the argument that the "Big Bang Theory" fails the test of not spontaneously creating a Mercedes Benz left in a garage, claiming that if no Mercedes shows up in 250 million years, how could life have developed, completely missing the nearly perfect alignment of the "Big Bang" with Genesis, or how it was first proposed by a Belgian priest and cosmetologist, Father Georges Lemaître, the 1930s. Ergo: Let there be light and there was light!" Swing and a miss Mr. Comfort. 2.5 stars. ( )

This title could be more properly classified as a booklet, instead of a book, but its content is colossal. It opens your mind to new dimensions that you never thought they could exist. The author did a magnificent job on apologetics of Christianity, and he shows through convincingly examples why the Bible must be supernatural in origin. In thirteen chapters and 95 pages, Mr. Ray Comfort talks about science, book of Job, medical science, genesis, scientists, biology, accuracy of prophecies, astronomy, historical figures, archaeology, historical accuracy and evolution and their relation to the Bible. It is simply astonishing. Marvelous. The way he talks about the compatibility (or lack of compatibility, let's say) between the Bible and the Theory of Evolution is simply blowing minded. And his citation of the words of Dwight Eisenhower is superb: "It takes no brains to be an atheist. Any stupid person can deny the existence of a supernatural power because man's physical senses cannot detect it...". I simply loved this book. It is a must have in a library of any serious person that believes in the word of God written in the Bible.

I received this book as a gift from my dearest friend Tasos Verdi. Thanks so much for such a nice gift!
