The debate between the disciples of God and Dawkins tends to assume a level of basic theological information which many people lack. Here are the answers to all those questions that people really do ask, about God, and evil, and the Bible and the Church. The conversational format is deliberately accessible: 'on-the-bus' theology for the general reader. This book is not the last word on anything, writes the author: I hope only that it is the starting word on some very important things for some interested people.

Review:
Mention —Book News, February 2009

"The language is deceptively easy to read. By deceptive I mean that it doesn't seem to be leading the reader into profound meaning but that is exactly what it does. The author suggests reading around with pauses for meditation on the questions... it would thus be an excellent resource for confirmation classes for youth as well as adult inquiries" — The Living Church (Rev. George Ross The Living Church)

"This book is written for an audience that has little or no formal training in theology. The author intends his book to be accessible to the general reader while offering solid theology. The question-and-answer format facilitates a conversation with the reader. While the book is organized according to the ordinary order of Christian theology, the reader may go directly to specific questions that are of interest to the reader... This is a book that parish libraries should have." —Lucien J. Richard, OMI, Catholic Library World (Lucien J. Richard, OMI Catholic Library World)
