In this response to Collins's work, fellow geneticist George C. Cunningham presents a point-by-point rebuttal of The Language of God, arguing that there is no scientifically acceptable evidence to support belief in a personal God and much that discredits it.Written with admirable clarity for the nonscientist, Decoding the Language of God covers much of the same ground addressed by Collins in his book: the origins of moral behavior, the difficulty of reconciling belief in a good God with the existence of evil.and anthropic coincidences as evidence of God as creator.Cunningham also devotes chapters to the unreliability of the Bible as a basis for belief; the conflict between naturalistic explanations of reality, which are anchored in scientific research, and supernatural interpretations, which are not; and the many difficulties in conceptualizing the origins of the universe in terms of a personal God. Unlike recent hostile attacks on religious belief, Cunningham's respectful, well-reasoned discussion will appeal to open-minded people across the whole spectrum of belief and unbelief.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Prometheus","offers":[{"title":"Decoding the Language of God: Can a Scientist Really Be a Believer?: A Geneticist Responds to Francis Collins | George C Cunningham | Paperback | 9781591027669 | Used: Like New | Back Stacks F 1763788","offer_id":49287649362072,"sku":"1763788","price":12.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0492\/1609\/4360\/files\/71E9oRidZML.jpg?v=1781894026","url":"https:\/\/roundaboutbookstore.com\/products\/decoding-the-language-of-god-can-a-scientist-really-be-a-believer-a-geneticist-responds-to-francis-collins","provider":"Roundabout Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
