5.0 out of 5 stars Debunking the Myths about Scientists, March 18, 2008
By 
Dodie's Doodles (Atlanta, Georgia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Scientists Who Believe: 21 Tell Their Own Stories (Mass Market Paperback)
As a science teacher, this is one of my favorite books to give to those who believe that 1)all scientists hate God and are therefore bad or 2)any good scientist would never believe in such garbage as the Bible. This book is filled with the personal accounts of scientists who are tops in their fields but who also believe in God and in the Bible. This is a fascinating read. Since each scientist is shown with his or her own chapter, it is an easy read. Highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars Forgotten truth wisdom began with scripture, March 8, 2007
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Scientists Who Believe: 21 Tell Their Own Stories (Mass Market Paperback)
The truth about US universities is they were often seminaries, first. Brilliant minds emerged from the likes of Haravard, Yale, William and Mary, Notre Dame, etc. Most scientists, Robert Boyle, Michael Farraday, the Wright brothers, Leonardo DaVinci, etc. were Christians and sought their knowledge from the wisdom of God. The "Scientists Who Believe: 21 Tell Their Own Stories" carry the historical mandate to show God's glory in the scientific world He made. These 21 scientific Christians explain how true science always proves the God's mastery in Creation. Their scientific discoveries brought them to a stronger faith and desire to extoll His glory through their continued work. This is excellent reading for youth from age 10 through college. Scientific method is logically employed, as well as explanations of trials in the process.

1.0 out of 5 stars Serious short comings!, April 12, 2007
This review is from: Scientists Who Believe: 21 Tell Their Own Stories (Mass Market Paperback)
Problems within the text:

1. Only 1 of 21 stories actually mentioned Christian faith effecting the way they perform their science.

2. When each person talk about their conversions one of three things were always present. Personal or family struggle, a social system that had betrayed them, or they were to young to make an educated decision on what to believe.

3. Misrepresented data, e.g. thermodynamic laws issue, order in the universe, scientific constants, the historical person of Jesus, Einsteinian god, and Pascale's wager. All of these things have been debunked by the vast majority of the scientific community.

4. Softball questions. None of the questions posed by RADAS were even close to thought provoking.

Things I liked in the text:

1. I thought before I read the book that compartmentalization was necessary to perform good science. 20 of 21 confirmed my suspicion. It was overwhelmingly obvious that to be credible in science in is important to have facts, not faith.

Overall I expected alot more from this book, too bad.
