OverviewThe book is the result of more than ten years of studying the arguments for and against the theories of the Big Bang and evolution, a study that also implied the search for the right religion and the true Church of Christ. The book addresses topics such as: - What is the difference between knowing and believing? Do we actually know anything, or do we just believe things? - Can science correctly answer any question? - Are there any limits to what we can learn through scientific experimentation? - Is the earth billions of years old? - How complex is a simple cell? - Can the body develop and function without a soul? Can protein folding be explained purely by naturalistic means? - Can life emerge by itself? - Can living beings evolve? - Are there any transitional fossils? - Are there other ancient accounts that confirm the Biblical accounts about the flood and about Joshua's long day? - Which religion is the right one? - What exactly is sin? Is it just a bad deed, or is there a deeper meaning? - What is repentance, and why exactly is there no repentance after the death of the body? - What are heaven and hell in the teaching of the Orthodox Church? - Are there any aliens? Who are they? The book is not a translation, the author wrote the original in both Romanian and English.
