Is it possible to reconcile faith and reason? In modern times, Christians are accused of believing in a creator God as illogical and unreasonable. Our conviction that this is not the case should be based on a faith grounded in insight and understanding. Even in Scripture, we read that we should love God with our intellect as well. Although human beings, in their weakness, cannot fathom everything, many connections between God and his creation can still be explained.
Professor Dr.-Ing. Werner Gitt is one of the first Christian thinkers of our time to recognize mathematical information theory as fundamental proof of God's intervention in this world. In this book, the reader's focus is drawn to the immense complexity and precise organization of DNA, the building block of information for life. The author convincingly and comprehensibly demonstrates that information can only originate from an intelligent source and that ultimately all information, including biological information, originated with God. Information is a non-material quantity that cannot come from a material source and therefore requires an information provider.
Reading this book is a challenge. However, for anyone who wants to understand the true origin and purpose of all information, it is worth taking on this challenge. Furthermore, the book makes an excellent gift, especially for those who have scientifically minded friends or acquaintances.
