Scientific Theology

For many in the modern world there is a belief of a great gulf fixed between science and religion. Dr. Giem sets about showing how that belief is not necessarily true. In order to bridge the gulf, one must examine both science and religion to show how both of them may have been misinterpreted. This is a large task, but Dr. Giem pulls it off remarkably well. He sets forth a clear understanding of Biblical truth, especially in those areas that touch human nature and the human pursuit of science. Inevitably one must confront those areas in science where others have seen a tension between it and the Bible. This task is focused in the areas of dating methodology. This subject involves both radiometric dating and radiocarbon focused in the areas of dating methodology. This subject involves both radiometric dating and radiocarbon dating. In his sections dedicated to these subjects, he shows these methods may not have been handled as well as previously thought, and it may be necessary to revise the chronologies that these methods have provided us to a considerable extent. In both of these major areas of study here, Dr. Giem has provided us with a careful and thoughtful presentation. This work is strongly recommended to interested readers, especially those who would like to see a reconciliation between science and religion. - William H.
