From the back of the book:

Who are you? Where did you come from? Are you being told the truth? How does what you believe link you to the world’s worst mass murderers, being judged by the color of your skin, super babies of the future, and today’s school curriculum?

Mere generations ago, a man named Charles Darwin introduced his Theory of Evolution which permeates today’s society. Its premise is that some groups of people are less evolved than others and, therefore, inferior. As a result, millions have died when targeted by race, class or disability.

There are those who say that this same philosophy, that helped fuel Hitler’s ovens, has crept into America’s school system when no one was watching. Others contend that evolution, which was rooted in racist and class elitism and is today being taught, makes some of us superior and more “fit” to live on the planet. Are you fit enough? Is your family fit enough? Who survives? Who decides?

In America, are we one nation under God or one nation under Darwin? As two worldviews of race and class collide, it is time to decide what you believe regardless of your social status or the color of your skin.

This books does a fabulous job of pointing out the flaws in Darwin’s Theory of Evolution.  They delve into many areas that some scientists have claimed as fact when, in fact, they have not been proven to be so – they are ideas that are pure speculation.  They also do a great job pointing out many problems that have arisen, not only in our society, but in other societies of the world since Darwin first presented his theory.

There are many great quotes in this book, there are two I’d love to share here.

Spurgeon quickly noted a double standard that was pro-evolution and anti-creation and used sarcasm to criticize Darwin’s unproven theory.  In his monthly magazine, The Sword and the Trowel, Spurgeon wrote the following to all those who recognized God as Creator.

“You are not to be dogmatic in theology, but for scientific men it is the correct thing.  You are never to assert anything very strongly; but scientists may boldly assert what they cannot prove, which may demand a faith more credulous than any we possess.”  Charles Spurgeon

With what he calls almost seemingly endless attacks on religion – through lawsuits, misleading television programs and a bias towards the faith of Darwinism, Author and President of Amerisearch, William J. Federer sees an alarming irony.

“Religion provides social order and tolerance for all people.  Now, in America, everyone is tolerated except the ones who came up with the idea.”

These are just two of many great thoughts shared in this book.  If you are interested in learning about how the Theory of Evolution has shaped our world this book is a great book for you to read.  It is packed full of great information and great quotes.  (If you are interested, you can click on the title above and it will take you to Amazon to purchase the book.)

I do have to add one negative because I’m a bit of a grammar freak.  When using quotation marks the rule is that periods and commas ALWAYS go inside of the quotation marks.  It doesn’t matter if the quotation marks are part of the whole sentence or just around one word at the end – they ALWAYS go inside the quotation marks.  Numerous times in the book the authors have commas and periods outside of the quotation marks.  I know, I know – you’re probably thinking, “Who cares!”  Well, I’m sorry, but I do.
