Genesis 2.0: The Search for the Truth Continues

by Leslie G Howarth

It is probable that the superstitious people in the Middle East who wrote down their theory on how the universe, Earth and life were formed about 4,000 years ago were largely ignorant of the sciences of cosmology, physics, chemistry, biology, paleontology and geology, etc. However, in spite of the huge progress and success of science over the last few hundred years there are still a number of people who insist that the biblical creation story is literally true in spite of a number of serious difficulties.Genesis 2.0 was written as a result of discussions with such fundamentalist, literalist creationists and provides a review of published scientific evidence that leads to a personal presentation of an updated version of the story of how the universe was formed from a quantum vacuum through to the origin and evolution of life from chemical processes.This book should interest and inform you whether you are a curious Believer, agnostic or non-Believer and whether you believe that science is the best tool that we have for determining the truth or a fundamentalist creationist who has accepted the indoctrination of an extremist religious sect. Also, if you consider that the latter group of people poses a potential threat to the future safety of mankind then you should find this of interest.
