Go Beyond the Boundary of Science and Discover the Divine Source of Universal Information
Consider the complexity of information within our bodies and all other life on this planet, deliberately programmed into us by a powerful, all-knowing God. Engineer and author Dr. Werner Gitt has created a compelling argument in the evolution vs. creation debate with a groundbreaking technical exploration of the Theory of Universal Information. He refutes the worldview in which matter or energy is the sole entity and cause for everything.
Lays out the scientific logic for an alternate worldview in which a purposeful Creator God is the best and only rational alternative.Understand the true definition and source of information found within lifeDiscover what can be learned just from the magnificent coding system found in the DNA/RNA system containing the richest source of information known to mankind as well as an incredibly complex, perfectly integrated molecular infrastructure to implement this information

A devastating critique of materia!ism, based on science and logic
The learned doctor introduces the concept of Universal Information (UI), distinguishing it from Shannon's statistcal measures and other types of info. In a very readable demonstration of logic he provides clear definitions, presents scientific laws governing UI and supports his claims that UI is a non-material entity that can only be produced by an intelligent source. This conclusively refutes the hypothesis that life with the supremely complex organisation of UI that we find in DNA could have originated by chance in some unknown pond-scum.
There is so much good information in this book. Dr. Gitt's thoughtful arguments about Universal Information certainly pushed me to the limits of my brain power, but since he was talking about the Bible also, there were of course moments of great simplicity and clarity. I especially loved how he beautifully explained the mechanism God built into Creation for us to use to speak to Him. It can use any language or thought, nothing will be blocked or lost in translation, and He even gives us words to say and knows our deepest longings. That explanation really moved me.
