Rating: ![1 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-1-0.gif) Summary: CREATIONISM BY ANY OTHER NAME Review: THE AUTHOR USES THE TYPICAL ARGUMENTS OF CREATIONISM IN AN EFFORT TO MAKE FUNDAMENTALIST CHRISTIANITY SEEM AS IF IT IS SUPPORTED BY SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE. HE HAS A SOUR, SARCASTIC TONE TO HIS WRITING, AS IF HE WAS ONCE MADE FUN OF IN SCHOOL FOR HIS RELIGIOUS BELIEFS, AND HAS CARRIED A BIG CHIP ON HIS SHOULDER EVER SINCE. HIS ENTIRE ARGUMENT CONSISTS OF, "IF THERE'S NO GOD, WHO CREATED THE UNIVERSE?" AS IF THE UNIVERSE IS AN ARTIFACT LIKE A TOASTER OR A TOYOTA THAT MUST BE CRAFTED BY PERSON, RATHER THAN A NATURAL FORM IN AN OSCILLATING CONTINUUM WITH NO ULTIMATE BEGINNING OR END. THE AUTHOR ADDS NOTHING NEW TO FUNDAMENTALIST DOGMA (OTHER THAN A PARTICULARLY SNARKY CONTEMPT), JUST GRINDS THE SAME OLD AXE. IF THEIR FAVORITE MAGICAL FATHER/KING IS SUPPOSED TO SUPERCEDE ALL, WHY ARE THESE PEOPLE SO OBSESSED WITH "PROVING" THAT HE IS SUBJECT TO THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD?

Rating: ![5 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-5-0.gif) Summary: Great Book FROM DCMK834 Review: This is a "Great" evidential analysis of creation of the world and mankind that I have read. Mr. Comfort gives solid evidence in destroying the fallacy of the Big Bang "theory" and Darwinism taken from the Bible. It is amazing what one can find in the Bible. Mr. Comfort proves that the Big Bang Theory is like playing the lottery. What are the chances or odds that world was created out of nothing--very slim! He also gives evidence from the Bible that the world was round and was stated even before Aristotle and Plato. This is a good read for anyone who wants to find a purpose in life or enrich themselves with the word-- DCMK834
Rating: ![5 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-5-0.gif) Summary: Great Book FROM DCMK834 Review: Throughout the entirety of this book, the author uses forms of fallacy: the slippery slope, the straw man, circular logic; as if that weren't bad enough, he always speaks of the "proof of the Creator" that he gave or will give, when, in reality, that "proof" is just as faulty and intangible as everything else.He claims on the book cover that he doesn't use the Bible or his religion to prove anything, but this is clearly a lie; he constanttly uses the same cliche's any Bible-Belted person has ever heard. ...
Rating: ![5 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-5-0.gif) Summary: A bright witness amidst a murky and confusing world. Review: With sharp reasoning, infallible logic, and quick wit, Ray Comfort slices up the thin veil of atheistic "reasoning". No more excuses for those who would deny the existence of God. And nowhere to run. But to the cross. Using object lessons drawn from common human experience, Comfort destroys the deceit of the enemy. The wonders of the human eye, the beauty of an organized universe displaying the glory of God, the intricacies of nature, all point to the Creator. Neither the human mind, mathematical formulae, nor the scientific method can adequately apprehend all of God, it is true. But neither can they disprove Him, quite the opposite. The closer scientists get to understanding, the nearer they get to God. This book is an easy read from a man whose heart beats to tell the story of Christ and for the lost. You will come away with a fire in your heart, clearer understanding in your mind, and a smile on your lips.
