A Scientific Search for Religious Truth, the result of years of research reconciling science and religion, looks at the origins and written works of each, proposing a "scientific paraphrase" to bridge the chasm between hard science and the "six days of creation" story. The author argues that religion needs to respect scientific facts--and scientists need to honor the place of religion.

This review is from: A Scientific Search for Religious Truth (Hardcover)
Fills in the gaps that I learned of both religion and science that I attained in high school, college and post graduate studies. Mundt uses a broad brush and dabs in the minutiae.

By AK "Bro" (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Scientific Search for Religious Truth (Hardcover)
Reconciling science and theology has been a goal of many. Indeed, theology is referred to as the Queen of Sciences, and authors such as Lee Strobel and Phil Johnson have enriched the world with their readable, intelligent works that reconcile the Bible with credible science. However, while this is a worthy goal, not all efforts are well done. Although Dr. Mundt makes some valid points, his Pelagian, overly ecumenical treatise is riddled with errors and in the final analysis, does not support Christianity, despite its purported mission statement.
