Jesus Christ was a master of logic. Despite numerous attempts by his enemies to trap him on the horns of a dilemma, the founder of Christianity was able to recognize their logical fallacies and to return the conversation from the dark pit of muddy thinking. This invariably left his enemies shaking their heads in awe.
Rod Martin, Jr., author of #1 Weather Bestseller, Climate Basics, has tackled the difficult topic of "science vs. religion." In this deep analysis of the topic, he reveals that both fields have far more in common than most people realize. He points out their critical differences, but also exposes their similarities. In fact, Martin discovered that the primary tool of sciencescientific methodcan also be used on spiritual phenomena, but only by removing the flawed paradigm of skepticism. Scientific method requires that all bias be removed, yet skepticism contains the potent, negative bias of "doubt." Martin gives numerous examples of science becoming derailed by defective logic and politics.
Throughout the book, Martin challenges many faulty assumptions by scientists and by the religious. His clarity can seem abrasive, at times, but no more so than was Christ to the Pharisees for their biblical literalism and legalism, or Galileo to the Catholic Church for its egoistic grip on intellectual discourse.
The Truth of nature never contradicts the Truth found in scripture. As Augustine of Hippo once pointed out, if science and religion seem to disagree, then our interpretation of nature, the Bible or both is wrong.
In this short book, Martin also tackles questions which have plagued people for more than two thousand years. For example, Jesus told his disciples that anyone can do the miracles Christ did or even greaterthat faith the size of a mustard seed (tiny) can move a mountain. He said that all we need to do is ask and we will receive. But, as Martin, points out, the trick is in how to ask. And if you have not received what you expected, then the problem is not with God, but with the person asking. After replicating miracles numerous times, just as a scientist might perform experiments in a laboratory, Martin has the data to back up his claim. After all, Jesus did not say, "Ask and sometimes you will receive," or "Ask and you will receive if God feels like it." There was no such equivocation. The obvious answer is that the person asking needs to learn something they don't already know about prayer. And Martin's book provides exactly that.
