Intelligent Design Vs. Evolution: Letters to an Atheist

by Ray Comfort

In August of 1998, a professing atheist read Ray Comfort's "The Atheist Test," wrote to him, and asked why he didn't accept the "scientific facts" that supported the theory of evolution. Ray wrote back that there was more proof that the earth was flat. That was in the beginning. In time, a book evolved.

James D. Franz is a professing atheist and a believer in the theory of evolution. He thinks that Ray Comfort is "idiotic" and a "blinded fool," whose arguments are "laughable at best." He maintains that Ray's logic is "very tainted with uneducated and irrelevant spoutings" that are "weak, flimsy, self-contradictory, uninformed, poorly organized, badly thought out, mindless, pointless, ignorant, simple, and mind-numbingly dull."

Intelligent Design versus Evolution—Letters to an Atheist is intellectually stimulating, thought-provoking, and at times even humorous.

I have no idea what Ray is railing against here in this book, but it sure isn't evolution. It is clear from Ray's ramblings that he is completely ignorant of what evolution is. His claims of what evolution is are completely devoid of fact.


Basically Ray has created a strawman of what he *thinks* evolution is and tears that apart, but what he fails to do is comment on the *real* evolution.

This book made me angry. Part of the fundamentalist propaganda machine. I read it while working at a Christian bookstore. I am, for lack of a more suitable definition, an atheist now and this book helped me along the way. That is the only reason I added it.

where science met my heart and cleared my mind was within the unfolding pages of this book. If you are remotely curious where the truth lies...read it!

Very funny and yet sad dialogue between Ray and an atheist.
