Fundamentalisms are so simiar that they hates eeing each other in the eye, for they will immediately recognize themselves as being similar to what they see--and criticize. Here is an interesting example: Not all fundamentalism can ber right at the same time. And if that is true, who is to sayand how likely would it be that even one of them is right all the time? They are mutually self eliminating miopies, miopically self-contracted views of reality itself, which has no point of view, but merely IS Itself always already--or (to speak with e. e. cummins) everywhen and where. [From the link] 2008 Christian Booksellers Covention Book of the Year Award winner! World-renowned scientist Richard Dawkins writes in The God Delusion: If this book works as I intend, religious readers who open it will be atheists when they put it down. The volume has received wide coverage, fueled much passionate debate and caused not a little confusion. Alister McGrath, along with his wife, Joanna, are ideal to evaluate Dawkinss ideas. Once an atheist himself, he gained a doctorate in molecular biophysics before going on to become a leading Christian theologian. He wonders how two people, who have reflected at length on substantially the same world, could possibly have come to such different conclusions about God. McGrath subjects Dawkinss critique of faith to rigorous scrutiny. His exhilarating, meticulously argued response deals with questions such as •Is faith intellectual nonsense? •Are science and religion locked in a battle to the death? •Can the roots of Christianity be explained away scientifically? •Is Christianity simply a force for evil? This book will be warmly received by those looking for a reliable assessment of The God Delusion and the many questions it raises--including, above all, the relevance of faith and the quest for meaning.
