I rated it a perfect 4 out of 4. I felt that the research that went into this book was extraordinary. The amount of learning is therefore plentiful. In my review I stated that the authors, however, show a strong bias to religious texts being factual. This does, in my view, shed some doubt on the findings, however extraordinary they might be.

I give this book a rating of 4 out of 4 stars. It increased the little knowledge I have in science plus it connects man to the creator.

I rated this book 4 out of 4 stars.
I'm a Christian, growing up going to church. But I also have a strong belief in science, I'll be graduating this May with a Bachelor of Science. In my studies at school, I've been wondering lately how science and religion can be combined. I've seen from my classes the evidence of evolution and evidence of an old Earth. However, science isn't taught in church services, and the Bible doesn't explicitly state that Day 1 of creation was not a day as we know it. I thought it was really interesting to see Friedmann's evidence from religious scholars that coincide and agree with scientific evidence.

I rated this book 3 out of 4 stars. It's very enjoyable to read, it has quite a lot of interesting points based on the authors research. The fictional parts of the book does leave you confused, I read certain chapters slowly to understand what
purpose it served in its chapters. Overall, the book was great!

This book is a huge debate ground between science and spirituality. The author dives into the deepest truths and brings many characters to make a statement. I liked the way the author set forth the ideas.

I've reviewed this book and I rated it 4 out of 4 stars. The book sounds more of a research book, and that's what I do like to read because of facts that would be recommended.

I recommend it to the inquisitive who have also wanted to reconcile science and religion.

Post by Charley Taylor »

I found the author's reconciliation of ideas of science and religion insightful and original, and I agree with the author that instead of working against each other, these ideas can work together harmoniously, without one discrediting the other. I particularly liked the God creation story in 7 days being explained scientifically, with each day representing one millennium.

The anecdotal tone gave the book pace however at times it was difficult to differentiate between fiction and non-fiction, with fictional stories being used to narrate scientific facts. The last chapter holds a glimpse into the future and the 'End of Days' - despite being fictional, it did feel fairly plausible, with the 'End of Days' increasingly seeping into people's daily lives with the threat of global sickness and natural disasters.

Overall, I feel the book was well written and despite the fictional elements, the book is thought-provoking and provided some interesting perspectives.

I Rates this book 3 out of 4 stars. Although there were some interesting parts, there was a lot in this book I didn’t agree with. I am
Very picky when it comes to Christian book, and this is one I would not recommend to people. Wish I felt differently.

What I liked most about the was the title. I feel the details and the lessons from the book correlated with the title. I will surely recommend it to those who wish to find the connection of science and the Bible.

One of the best well-researched books on religion and science I have read. This book deserves a 4-star due to the fascinating information in it. I rarely came across any error.

I enjoyed this book for its presentation and the author's efforts in trying to reconcile the data from the different perspective, but I also noted some inconsistencies. It is a well-written book.

I appreciate the author's effort to really attempt to solve the human inherent problem of reconciling religion and science. Since this is a work of research and the author can back his claims the book has authenticity. What I love most is the pack of proofs that the author provides to affirm his claim about reconciling science and religion. The book came to me in andy since I love knowing new things

I loved how Friedmann knocked down the title of the book with its insights they really matched. I also loved the way in which the author used picture illustrations for clarity on the reader to an idea of what he is talking about. I gave this book a rating of 4 out 4, the author's thick research and opinions have helped me to exercise my thoughts, above all it was an enjoyable read. I recommend the book mostly to Philosophers.
