Johnson begins his critique of the Darwinian theory of evolition by discussing several legal issues, unsurprising since Johnson is a legal scholar by profession. He then moves to dealing with the question of whether or not the teaching of Darwinian theories in schools amounts to the establishment of a religion of another sort, an athiestic and naturalistic one. He finally uses statements by the late Stephen Jay Gould to show that criticism of the "fact of eveolution" is not allowed, even if biologists and other scientists are in disagreement over the means of evolution.

  • A great book, that stands above the masses

    The controversial book that rocked the scientific establishment! Why? It shows that the theory of evolution is based not on fact but on faith in philosophical naturalism. Johnson argues courageously that there simply is no vast body of empirical data supporting the theory. In this new edition, he responds to critics of the first edition, including Stephen Jay Gould. This is such a worthwhile read if you enjoy the clever use of the English language and want to cut straight to the heart of the argument. Very highly recommended.
