This book is a spectacular documentation of the impossibility of life arising from naturalistic processes. The author profoundly illustrates how it's utterly beyond the realm of possibility to produce even the simplest of life's building blocks by chance, protein molecules. Coppedge correctly

points out that without self-replication mechanisms found only in living things, natural selection is powerless to affect an upward progression in complexity, elegance, or survivability. Therefore, his main theme throughout the book is to show that life cannot arise from non-living chemicals without intelligent planning and manufacture. The author also explains the religious and philosophical implications of supporting and maintaining a belief in evolution. While clearly very well-educated, the author portrays the information in an understandable way. He treats the topic soberly, and is very generous to the opposing side. Even though my husband and I never doubted in our Creator, this book strengthened us both immeasurably as we read it together for worship. We highly recommend it to those seeking to enhance and bolster their faith. Show Less
