A Clear and Concise Handbook to Debating Evolution
Amid the complex scientific debates surrounding the topic of evolution, Christians need an easy way to understand the basic issues without oversimplifying.
In An Easy-to-Understand Guide to Defeating Darwinism by Opening Minds, Phillip Johnson provides an answer: the key to defeating the false claims of Darwinism is to open our minds to goodthinking habits. He gives first-rate advice on avoiding common mistakes in discussions about evolution, understanding the legacy of the Scopes trial, spotting deceptive arguments, and grasping the basic scientific issues without getting bogged downin unnecessary details. With this book, ordinary Christians can find the resources they need to discuss and defeat the false claims of Darwinism.
Throughout this book, Johnson addresses questions like:
- How can I have a reasoned conversation about creationism without being dismissed as a religious fanatic?
- How can I effectively use logical reasoning and investigative procedure?
- How can I apply critical thinking to questions both of religion and of evolution?
- What is Intelligent Design?
In the bestselling and critically acclaimed books Darwin on Trial and Reason in the Balance, Phillip Johnson exposed the misleading claims of evolutionary naturalism. With this book, he provides an accessible yet powerful treatment of these issues for high-school students, parents, teachers, pastors, and ordinary readers. Johnson aims not just to defeat a bad theory, but to defeat it in the right way: by opening minds to the truth.
