Of course, there is a conflict between science and God, many say, and they do not even bother to ask for justification. This myth-based view is dominant in our culture. Sverre Holm regularly encounters attitudes that reflect such a perception, which is based more on opinion than on fact. This has inspired him to embark on the exciting task of elucidating how classical Christian faith, with a little effort, can go together with science. The result is an educational and engaging book for anyone interested in science, its history and philosophy. "Science is strangely vague when faced with the question of human consciousness and calls the origin of its most prominent characteristic, the ability to speak, a mystery. Nevertheless, there is no lack of certainty about how evolution can explain everything about human nature. Are we approaching the limits of what science can explain here?"
