5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding resource, September 13, 1998

By A Customer

This is an outstanding collection of statements supporting evoolution education from most of the major American religious denominations (Catholic, Protestant, Jewish) and from scientific and educational organizations. It proves clearly that most religions support evolution education and church/state separation--even some conservative churches which might teach differently in church but don't want to do it in public schools. This is a moajor reference for parents, teachers and students (and ministers) confronting anti-evolutionist pressures on local schools.

5.0 out of 5 stars If you think .... you will like it, May 28, 2000

By	MotherLodeBeth "MotherLodeBeth" (Sierras of California) - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER)

Molleen Matsumura is someone I met in the mid 1980's in Berkeley at a SHEB meeting and so I am biased in some ways.

Having said that I am also a damn honest person and speak my mind. Voices for Evolution is a great book for those interested in knowing that others besides non-religious folks believe in the theory. And since Kansas (run dog run) has banned the teaching of evolution in their public schools (how many Nobel winners have they turned out in Kansas anyway?) I think this book has even more value.

I would even suggest you buy a copy for your local library and then have a bookplate with your name as the donor put inside the front cover and thus let everyone in your village know at least one THINKER lives there.

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting Collection of Pro-Evolution Statements, May 24, 2000

By	[e-mail] (USA) - See all my reviews

This book is an interesting collection of statements which favor evolution (and oppose so-called 'scientific' creationism) by various scientific, educational, and religious groups. This book contains ammunition that could be useful in debating creationists.
