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.

The point of the book is obvious from the title. What is surprising is that the arguments against evolution come from top scientists at top museums and universities. Instead of a pro-creationism treatise, Comfort uses the top scientists' own words to explain why evolution is impossible, and therefore a matter of faith and not evidence. Ultimately, belief in evolution is faith in a metaphysical religious theory about how life began, not a matter of believing what the evidence shows.

Handy manual consisting of 101 "Questions," "Answers," and "In-depth Comments." concluding with a "Vestigial Chapter" on "Evolution and Morality." Very simple format makes it fun to read, and easy to set down after a page or two without loosing continuity. Questions deal with a broad but non-linear range of topics which educate, myth-bust, and correct faux science cliches.
