Great book on scientific evidence for God
This is an excellent book from John Clayton. I first heard Clayton speak about 35 years ago. He explains scientific evidence that points to God clearly. Some books I have read were highly technical (Anthropic Cosmological Principle by Barrow and Tipler for example) Clayton addresses some serious science that anyone can read and understand.His web site doesgodexist.org has a tremendous amount of free written and video material that is geared toward non-scientists. I recommend all of it. His work on the problem of pain is as good as anyone's I have ever heard.Clayton is a former atheist who has been teaching apologetics since long before it was popular. When I left atheism at age 19, the first apologetics I read was from a Young Earth Creationist (Duane Gish). Not super helpful. The second was Clayton, which was tremendously helpful. He does not skate around basic science.I understand there are sincere young earth creationists, but you have to ignore a lot of science (and misinterpret the scriptures) to land there. Clayton is no young earth creationist. On the contrary he has a fantastic understanding of science.I highly recommend this book. Would be great for teenagers, or for others who want to see scientific evidence that points toward God without having to be well-versed in science. Buy this book.

Gods natural revelation
Wonderful written for all to comprehend. Gave it a 4 star only because some of the day age "evidence " is based on extrapolation rather than pure observation(e.g., the preexsistence of hominids and the "objectivity " of radioiometric dating. That withstanding the observable evidence tells a story of Gods creative and complicated world unlike anything humans would have ever forseen.

A Must Read For Believers and Non-believers
Well thought out book for anyone trying to understand the difference between Creation and competing views on the origins of earth and life thereon. I have read several books written by scientists on the same topic and think that this one is easier to understand. An important read for Christians and non-believers.

Very deep reading, but so much to learn.
I had to read this book slowly and stop often to digest what I had learned. Some of the last p art is way over my head, but I trust John Clayton to find the truth in the scriptures and led ;us to a greater understanding of them.

Read it if you really want to know the truth.
What a fantastic book. If you are an honest peron and want to know what the truth is, this is a must read whether you are a Christian or don't believe in a divine Creator.

The Author does not know what he is doing when it comes to Science and Math
Well I didn't read the whole book, just the first few chapters where he tries to come of with a number for Human inhabital planets in the Universe. After I saw the pathetic way he used science and math to attempt to come up with answers, I just threw the book away. The Author clearly does not have enough of a Science or Math background to write a book like this where he tries to prove things using science and math.I have wrote this book off as a complete JOKE!

Thought provoking and readable
For anyone that believes in evolution - read it, it will make you think again. For anyone who wants to believe in intelligent design, this will strengthen your position.
