5.0 out of 5 stars A sharp-tongued warning that religion is "holding hostage" science and scientific understanding of the world, March 6, 2006

This review is from: One Moment in Eternity: Human Evolution (Paperback)

One Moment In Eternity - Human Evolution is a sharp-tongued warning that religion is "holding hostage" science and scientific understanding of the world, particularly with regard to evolution. Medical doctor and former member of the American Psychiatric Academy Eugene Minard, MD presents a stinging indictment of humanity's atrocities in the name of religion, and a caution that our future as a species may very well result in annihilation due to overpopulation, nuclear holocaust, or other self-inflicted disasters if steps are not immediately taken to guide our own evolution down a more positive path. Emphatically written in plain terms, One Moment In Eternity - Human Evolution does not shy away from controversy or tread lightly around serious matters; it denounces selfishness and self-destructiveness on a species level for what they are, and points toward the highest hope humanity has for its future, including embracing separation of church and state over theocracy. A passionate and persuasive discourse.
