Title: Yet another God of the Gaps theory
Product review: Behe's theory of irreducible complexity is so full of holes it sinks almost immediately. Unfortunately, he sounds as though he knows what he's talking about, so is able to blind much of the reading public with misinformation and simple faulty logic masquerading as science. I am a Christian and believe in a Creator, but I don't believe in Behe's "God of the gaps" (which is what his argument boils down to)- and furthermore see no reason why Darwinian evolution should be in any way incompatible with Christian faith. If there is a God who created a world which is truly free then natural evolution would have to be part of the package, warts and all. (John Haught's "God After Darwin" explains the synthesis very nicely without conflating science and religion.) Don't waste your time with Behe's book...and if you are an "intelligent design" proponent who wants intelligent arguments that will stand up to serious scrutiny, you won't find them here!
