Customer Reviews: Read 39 more reviews... Mother of all books on creationism and evolution November 18, 2008 A book that has three pages of promises to just about any possible religious, scientific and secular group, must have something to say. I have attended a lecture of Michael Dowd and watched the DVD of his introductory talk.br /This is a passionate preacher for " God and evolution."br /The book is interesting and I trust that all the scientific data is correct.br /I would recommend the thoughts and challenges to any thinker of our time.br /Not sure that everyone who might get into this book would be open to a change of mind set but give the man a chance and you could be very informed and certainly more open to both God in your life and the role your faith plays in the world events.br /A mind set that takes in the whole of creation would be a very important concept for power people in the political sphere. Hope November 6, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful This book is about hope. It is about putting the arguments between science and religion behind us. Science tells us how. Religion gives it meaning. Both are equally important. Knowledge does not rule out faith AND faith does not rule out knowledge. This book is about learning not just to tolerate our differences but to embrace them as the key to our survival. This book is about appreciating the sanctity of death as a natural, creative, and necessary part of life. Finally, this book is about living with integrity in the here and now and thereby making your life a positive force in the world. Thank God for Evolution October 29, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful What a joyful marriage of the theory of evolution and the Oneness of God expressed by Michael and many other in "The Great Story" told in Thank God For Evolution! Michael's book is eye opening for seeing the great picture of life on Planet Earth. Thank God for Evolution--Michael Dowd October 22, 2008 2 out of 3 found this review helpful br /This is an excellent book for the person who wants to to better understand how scientific advances can be integrated with religious beliefs. Dowd effectively outlines the over-arching history of the cosmos, with proof of evolutionary progression to the present human form. He reviews the birth of religions across the world as a response to the human need to explain mysteries of the unknown. He refers liberally to scientists, philosophers, theologians, and agnostics to reflect different views. A book well worth reading for anyone who is seeking enlightenment! A Bridge Builder October 4, 2008 2 out of 3 found this review helpful I sense that Michael Dowd is on the forward edge of a global awakening for humanity. We're beginning to embrace our vocation of caring for this earth from which we all have arisen, and this book can help us move forward down that path. It's a necessary journey for the ongoing survival of our species.br /br /I really appreciate how Michael can bridge the polarized discussions that have been the norm about evolution in this country.br /br /Insights abound. I can't wait to start a group discussion to continue my evolution of learning. Thanks Michael for a wonderful contribution!
