Dumb luck, or God's special design. . . Which one are you? This 142-page paperback for teens explores creationism and evolution in hip terminology that still presents a clear case for Biblical creationism. There are lots of biology and technical explanations in between the covers here, where you'll meet Josh, a Christian who's been thrown into a head-on collision in Science class. Dogged by the teacher and "dissed-on" by peers, Josh must decide if he'll stand up for the Bible, or just shut -up. Go mind-to-mind, creationism vs. evolution in this fun-but-factual book that takes place in Josh's brain and in his classroom.
The authors make a challenge; that the basic question about the origin of man is not about how long ago, but about Who. By book's end, like Josh, you'll know what you believe and how to defend it. This is not a boring, textbook-style treatise on evolution. It's a fun way to get the facts and learn how to use them. Mom, each chapter includes study questions.
And, hey, what does the Borg have to do with all this, and what's up with the nuns and the Nazimobile? You'll have to read to find out.
Lots of biology couched in between laugh-out-loud funnies. And here's a big reality check: If you think God didn't make you, you'll think He doesn't matter.
