| Description: |
Since the late-19th century, the USA has not been able to agree on a common creation story. The authors of this study explain that much of this stems from the reality that Americans rely on two competing worldviews: modern naturalistic science and traditional Judeo-Christian religions. |
| Synopsis: |
In Species of Origins, Karl W. Giberson and Donald A. Yerxa examine America's controversial conversation about creation and evolution. While noting that part of the discord stems from the growing cultural and religious diversity of the United States, they argue powerfully that the real issue is the headlong confrontation between two seemingly incompatible worldviews upon which millions of Americans rely: modern naturalistic science and traditional Judeo-Christian religions. |
