I don't think this book would have much of an impact on non-Christians, but it does offer Christians some very meaty things to chew on. It is very approachable and could easily be understood by non-mathemeticians.

This is an impressive book. It is rigorously logical and faithful to a conservative Christian understanding of theology and philosophy. I recommend the book to you.

Poythress stays focused on the topic at hand and increases your appreciation for God's "invisible attributes" as reflected in mathematical laws and concepts.

I so wanted to take Poythress serious, but he is not serious. All his work is based on the same fallacious syllogism:

-The Protestant Canon is the Inspired Word of God
-The Word of God has all Authority,
-Therefore, the Assertions of the Protestant Canon are Authoritative.

"We want to explore how to obtain answers about the nature of things. But our answers will differ from most of the history of philosophy, because we are seeking answers from the Bible, rather than just trying to reason things out... Why should we listen to the Bible more than any other book? [Because] The Bible claims to be the very word of God addressed to us." Poythress, Redeeming Philosophy pg.20 Crossway 2014

NOT TRYING TO REASON THINGS OUT!

This is the methodology by which ALL his books proceed.

For Poythress philosophy and science simply amount to the assertions of the Protestant Canon.

The Protestant Canon says man was born in sin,
Therefore man cannot do philosophy or science without God.

The Protestant Canon says man was created by the Trinity,
Therefore man was created by the Trinity.

Indeed, one can easily prove this: write Poythress and ask him how he Ultimately Knows man was created by the Trinity. I can assure you he will offer you a citation from the Bible. This is not philosophy; this is not science... would Poythress accept a counter syllogism in the case of the Koran? Of course not! For Poythress the assertions of the Protestant Canon usurp all evidence and reason because he assigns them the unfounded status of having Ultimate Authority. They are beyond all falsification!
