A distinguished man of science leads us back to the awesome beginnings of the earth. The exciting journey lays bare a series of standing facts which may out your understanding of the meaning of human life on an entirely new footing.

The Remarkable Birth of Planet Earth by Henry M. Morris was next. This 100 (ish) page book was written by a creationist that is (or was) an engineer by training. I enjoyed a lot of this little book and I also see his Christian bias. Dr. Morris values the complexity of God’s creation, values natural laws and how those are opposite of what is claimed in evolution. He takes a look at space and always comes back to the creationist perspective. There is an obvious worldview laid down in this book and he often talks about “the bias” of evolution and their interpretations but is doing the same thing with the creationists side of the issue. We cannot get away from interpretation. I think he did a fine job with what he was trying to do. I’d give this book 3 out of 5 stars. ( )
