This massive 579-page book covers nearly every aspect of evidence for God's existence. Originally written in French, it became a bestseller across Europe before being translated into English. Its subtitle is “The Dawn of a Revolution.” The authors argue that materialist thinking was dominant until Freud in 1896, but since 1900, scientific discoveries have increasingly pointed to the existence of a Creator. They suggest that is especially true of the evidence for fine-tuning.
After defining what evidence is, the authors explore the implications of the existence of a Creator God. They then dedicate 13 chapters to scientific evidence for God, including findings that the universe had a beginning and will have an end, aligning with the Bible. The book examines fine-tuning in the universe and the multiverse theory, which unbelievers use to avoid its implications.
“The Evidence Within the Sciences” also discusses “The Incredible Leap from Inert to Living Matter,” citing scientists who express doubts about pure materialism as well as a discussion of what leading scientists believe. The authors especially examine what Albert Einstein and Kurt Gõdel believed.
The next section has eight chapters presenting “Evidence from Outside the Sciences.” It includes biblical truths and information about the life of Jesus. The authors discuss the “improbable” history of the Jewish people and the implications of Darwinism and philosophy. They conclude that materialism is irrational.
Three appendices feature a timeline of the universe, measurements of its physical properties, and fascinating biological facts. The book also contains charts and color photographs. The authors claim that this book is “the culmination of nearly four years of research conducted in collaboration with a team of around twenty high-end international specialists and scientists.” It certainly offers a wealth of information, and I highly recommend it.
