A Jealous God: Science's Crusade Against Religion

by Pamela R. Winnick

The age-old war between religion and science has taken a new twist. Once the dedicated scientist-martyr fought heroically against rigid religionists. But now the tables have turned, and it is established science crusading against religion, pushing atheistic agendas in the classroom, in textbooks, and in the media. This book shows how science has now become a religion of its own-an often fanatical one at that-furiously preaching atheism, punishing dissenters, dictating how and what we should think, and subtly inserting its worldviews in everything from education to entertainment. And, with stunning clarity, it proves that, with billions of dollars up for grabs in the race for stem cell research, intellectual integrity has been replaced with good old-fashioned greed. With sharp insight and completely original reporting, this book defiantly shows the extent to which science is beating down religion and how this systematic tyranny is unmistakably weakening culture and society.

A book on science ethics. This book was very interesting. It took me a long time to finish. Many parts had a bit too much information but I could see the importance of adding them. Not a book to read for fun or entertainment but i felt I needed to read it and see a point of view that involved much research and information. And the information was definitely interesting to discover.
