<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Since the twin towers crashed to the ground on 9/11 there has been no end to claims that religion 'is dangerous', 'kills', or 'poisons everything'. And if religion is the problem with the world, say the New Atheists, the answer is simple: get rid of it. But are things really so straightforward? Tackling Hawking, Dawkins, Dennett, Hitchens, and a newcomer in the field - the French philosopher Michel Onfray - John Lennox points out some of the fallacies in the New Atheist approach, arguing that their irrational and unscientific methodology leaves them guilty of the very obstinate foolishness they criticise in dogmatic religious folks. Erudite and wide-ranging, Gunning for God packs some debilitating punches. However, it also puts forward new ideas about the nature of God and Christianity that will give Dawkins' best friends and worst enemies alike some stimulating food for thought.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><i>A brilliantly argued re-evaluation of the relation of science and religion, casting welcome new light on today's major debates. A must-read for all reflecting on the greatest questions of life. --Alister McGrath, author, </i> Glimpsing the Face of God <i>on </i>God's Undertaker</p><br><br><i>Recent books touting atheism have been grounded more on dyspepsia than on dispassionate reason. In this book John considers the best, most recent science from physics and biology, and demonstrates that the picture looks far different from what we've been told. --Michael Behe, author, </i>Darwin's Black Box<i>, </i> <i>on</i> God's Undertaker</p><br><br><p>[An] erudite and wide-ranging guide.--The Vessel Project<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>John C Lennox ============= <p>John C.
