“Karl Giberson here presents a poignant account of his Christian pilgrimage from Creationist to Evolutionist. Along the way he details America’s own pilgrimage from Darwin to Dover, what is not so much a scientific dispute as our leading culture war. He offers a sympathetic historical analysis laced with trenchant criticism of both misguided intelligent design advocates and hard core atheists.”

“Few writers have poured more fuel on the recent science-religion controversies than such religion-bashers as Richard Dawkins, Carl Sagan, and Steven Weinberg. In six perky profiles, two Christian scholars critically, but fairly, examine the anti-religious claims of these and other scientific ‘oracles,’ finding them no more ‘scientific’ than the mutterings of creationists.”

“Species of Origins is the most comprehensive analytical survey of the various positions with respect to the evolution-creation issue known to me. It is lucidly written, well balanced, sociologically informed, and humanely aimed at promoting empathetic understanding of the clashing world views of a deeply divided American public.”
- John C. Greene

“Dr. Giberson exposes the strident and combative polemics of both scientific naturalism and scientific creationism as misleading and mischievous. Christians who have become confused by conflicting claims regarding the theological implications of science will find this book extremely helpful. This book makes it clear that Christians need not choose between intellectual integrity and Christian belief - between science and faith.” - Howard J. Van Till
Co-Author of Three Views on Creation and Evolution
