NCLA Review -Arguments from Darwin, Dawkins, Huxley, Hitchens, Hume, Nietzsche and other secularists are answered, sometimes even used, in defense of traditional Christian beliefs. The author demonstrates the compatibility of the theory of evolution and the Biblical account of creation, while condemning Darwinism. He points out the irrationality of some of the rationalist’s foundational beliefs, defends Christian versus materialist views of human morality and the soul, and discusses motivations of atheists. Atrocities, both those perpetrated by Christians and those perpetrated by secularists, are analyzed and compared. This book is forceful, readable and well documented.

Last two chapters bring it together for me

Great systematic apologetic, especially for those who wouldn’t feel comfortable reading a “theological” book like Mere Christianity. Engages new atheism on its own terms, deconstructing philosophical arguments, identifying its assumptions, and giving historical and scientific evidence to make his case. ( )

Dinesh D'Souza became one of my favorite writers with this book. It gives clear and logical answers to the modern attack on Christianity, as well as explaining the ins and outs of Christianity fairly well. And he's a funny guy too. A must-read for anyone interested in the Christian faith. ( )

For once I would like to read an intellectual defense of Christianity without the author invoking C.S. Lewis. Although he was a great author, enough already. Besides this minor flaw this book tackles every possible argument against Christianity and offers up convincing proofs. Everyone should read it! ( )
