Description
x"I offer no comfort to religious fundamentalists or evolutionists...Both are passe and represent only a quarrel within the Western belief system, not an accurate rendering of Earth history." With this opening salvo, Vine Deloria Jr. launches a witty and erudite assault on the current state of evolutionary theory, science, and religion. Using the tension between evolutionists and creationists in Kansas in the 1990s as a focal point, Deloria takes Western science and religion to task, providing a critical assessment of the flaws and anomalies in each side's arguments. As he incorporates non-Western and Native American ideas, as well as the concept of "Intelligent Design," Deloria provides us with a framework to better understand our origins.
