GodAndScience.org is enjoying its third month on its own virtual private server and things are going well. I have spent much of the last two months cleaning up the code for the website and improving the graphics.

Answers for Atheists

God of the Gaps?

Many skeptics believe that as science makes more discoveries, the gaps in our knowledge of how the universe works become fewer in number.

In addition, those scientists who are cohabiting tend to believe "there is very little truth in any religion" compared to those who are married. More...

Biblical Authenticity

Old Testament Detail Confirmed

Does the Bible contain real history or is it just made-up fiction? A recent discovery of a sixth century BC cuneiform tablet goes a long way to confirm the accuracy of biblical narrative accounts. Specifically, an Assyrian cuneiform tablet dated to 595 BC confirms one of the minor details about an obscure official from the court of King Nebuchadnezzar II, mentioned in the Old Testament book of Jeremiah...

Design vs. Evolution

Evolution and Genesis

Guest author, Dennis Bonnette, Ph.D., author of Origin of the Human SpeciesOrigin of the Human Species, examines the relationship between science and Genesis - specifically, the creation of modern human beings. Dr. Bonnette concludes that "intelligent, well-educated, reasonable Christians even today have good cause to believe those fundamental truths revealed by God in the first three chapters of Genesis."
