Exactly as advertised, this "impact-sized" book equips you to easily absorb and recall the strongest arguments against naturalism and evolution. Void of filler and unnecessary content, this is the "best of the best" presented in Hank's easy to remember style. Don't let the compact size (or ridiculous review) fool you. The content is solid. Well done!

As a Christian, I've read my share of evolution-refuting books. This book is small. It's not in depth. But considering its miniature size, it still makes some very good points and poses challenging questions. It manages to pack a decent amount of information into a small package. However, if you're looking for a dig-deep, in-depth analysis and refutation of evolution, try one of McDowell's 800 page books instead.

I bought this book a couple of years ago and have read it twice. Hank does a masterful job deconstructing the myth of evolution. Everyone ought to read this book carefully and think about what it says. Hank uses researcher's own flawed data and ideas to show that creation is how we all got here, not by random fluctuations of natural matter over eons.

I am a Christian Life Science teacher and read this book because my neighbor recommended it. The author relates many falacies in the "theory" of evolution in a very concise way. It is something all students should read. I would highly recommend this book to Christian science teachers or parents of public school children. This would be a great tool for revealing the myths of evolution taught in the public school classrooms.

Like the other books in this series (Prayer of Jesus, The Covering, The Third Day), it is concise and packed with info. Great resource and makes a great gift or something to give skeptics.

While Hank makes many valid points, skeptics might take it more seriously if he didn't so heavily reference young-earth creationists. Young-earthism is probably one of the biggest stumbling blocks for skeptics and Christians. It is unbiblical and unscientific. Hank often rebukes young-earthers for their emotional tactics, but never addresses the fact that they pose one of the greatest apologetic problems for Christianity. For more on this see Hugh Ross' "A Matter of Days" and Don Stoner's "A New Look at Old Earth."

What it does have is very good, but be prepared for a small book. I have studied Evolution and personally I find it to be such a farce, that I don't even like to waste my time talking about it. In time, evolutionist will acknowledge Evolution for what it truly is, fantasy.

Hank Hanegraaff of the Christian Research Institute and daily broadcaster of the 'Bible Answer Man' has complied some material from an already mediocre book, "The Facts that Demonstrate the Farce of Evolution' in "Fatal Flaws." This thin and small book is hardly worth[money amount], for although it is a hardbound, it reads like a 'track.'

This is highly disappointing, because this material - although I may agree with much of it, is just too thin for the price. It is a marketing ploy and I think they would be better off re-packaging the "Facts-Evolution" if they were looking for away to get this material in the hands of people.

Here, all the publishers are doing are taking people's money for material that should cost no more than [money amount]. For Hanegraaff books that are well worth the purchase, see"Christianity in Crisis" or "Counterfit Revivle."

Hank you should study St Augustine of Hippo's views about science before writing this piffle:

"Usually, even a non-Christian knows something about the earth, the heavens, and the other elements of this world, about the motion and orbit of the stars and even their size and relative positions, about the predictable eclipses of the sun and moon, the cycles of the years and the seasons, about the kinds of animals, shrubs, stones, and so forth, and this knowledge he hold to as being certain from reason and experience. Now, it is a disgraceful and dangerous thing for an infidel to hear a Christian, presumably giving the meaning of Holy Scripture, talking nonsense on these topics; and we should take all means to prevent such an embarrassing situation, in which people show up vast ignorance in a Christian and laugh it to scorn. The shame is not so much that an ignorant individual is derided, but that people outside the household of faith think our sacred writers held such opinions, and, to the great loss of those for whose salvation we toil, the writers of our Scripture are criticized and rejected as unlearned men. If they find a Christian mistaken in a field which they themselves know well and hear him maintaining his foolish opinions about our books, how are they going to believe those books in matters concerning the resurrection of the dead, the hope of eternal life, and the kingdom of heaven, when they think their pages are full of falsehoods and on facts which they themselves have learnt from experience and the light of reason? Reckless and incompetent expounders of Holy Scripture bring untold trouble and sorrow on their wiser brethren when they are caught in one of their mischievous false opinions and are taken to task by those who are not bound by the authority of our sacred books. For then, to defend their utterly foolish and obviously untrue statements, they will try to call upon Holy Scripture for proof and even recite from memory many passages which they think support their position, although they understand neither what they say nor the things about which they make assertion." - (The Literal Meaning of Genesis)

Hank Hanegraaff, "Bible Answer Man," is reduced to little more than a Christian typist in this ultra-thin (in pages, scope and intelligence) collection of misinformation, out-of-context quoting and outright duplicity. Having no coherent theories of his own, Hanegraaff's book is nothing more than endless citations of Christian "scientists'" published, absurd evolution-bashing hypotheses. He cites renown pseudoscientist and creationist idiot Duane T. Gish (universally disputed, debunked and disregarded in the legitimate scientific community) no less than 25 times. And Hanegraaff's references to actual scientific theorists, such as Gould, et al, are constantly filtered through Gish's and other Creationist morons' truth-concealing works. Let's leave science to the scientists.

128 pages? You've got to be kidding. My 10 year old writes longer stories.
Simple book for simple minded people.
