Seller: World of Books (was SecondSale), Montgomery, IL, U.S.A.
Paperback. Condition: Good. As technology allows a better view of the universe, R. C. Sproul asks an important question: Can chance be responsible for all that is? In a lively dialogue with modern thinkers from Einstein and Hume to Niels Bohr and Carl Sagan, Not a Chance consults the laws of logic, linguistic and scientific theory, and mathematical understanding to probe the cause-effect relationship. Now in paperback, it is the only book-length critique of chance causation written by an evangelical. Sproul shows that the origin of the universe and humankind cannot be explained as a result of chance, and that chance can coexist neither with God nor with the natural sciences. Readers interested in cultural apologetics and in the Bible and science, and anyone seeking a rational defense of creation, will be intrigued by this book. Twenty-five illustrations are included to aid the reader's understanding. Seller Inventory # 00100253521
