I believe the author intended for both parties (science and religion) to recognize their mutual benefits. This book should serve as a springboard for productive conversations rather than the sometimes endless debates between religion and science.

I believe his main objective, which required a lot of work, was to present the results of his scientific and biblical research. He undoubtedly accumulated knowledge. He was able to make claims with this study that need discussion. In my judgment, the author merely wanted people to be open-minded to all options, whether they were supported by science and facts or by faith and the Bible.

Perhaps the author didn't want to use this book to prove the validity of the holy book. However, he has essentially rationally demonstrated the lessons of the Bible in the process of achieving his regular goal of finding a compromise between science and religion.

The primary goal of this book, in my opinion, is to clarify and highlight the parallels between religion and science, which have historically been in opposition to one another.

For the reader to see the creation of this universe in the two most debatable perspectives which are science and religion.

The author's true intention is to teach readers about the connection between science and religion. How they are so distant yet so alike. He does this by referencing the Bible and comparing it with the work of scholars.

I think his intentions were honest with him trying to show how intertwined science and religion are.

Possibly the writer didn't mean to utilize this book to make the holy book deductively genuine. However, in the way or the way toward arriving at his normal objective of having a compromise among science and religion, what he has done is pretty much logically demonstrating the scriptural lessons.
