Adam and the Ape

by R.J. Berry

There have been two basic reactions to the evolution debate. Some have been awed by the scientists into believing that the Bible has been disproved; others have clung to a particular interpretation of the Scripture and denied that a study of the world by scientific methods can tell us anything about God's working.

Prof. R. J. Berry, Professor of Genetics in the University of London, believes both these reactions to be mistaken, and that our God will be too small if we exclude Him from natural events. He sets out to show that without losing his faith a Christian can accept natural selection as a fact ‘with no more uncertainty than the law that an incoming tide washes away sandcastles’.
