What somebody wrote about the book "God's Word or Human Reason? An Inside Perspective on Creationism" by Jonathan Kane, Emily Willoughby, and Michael Keesey.

"God's Word or Human Reason? An Inside Perspective on Creationism" by Jonathan Kane, Emily Willoughby, and Michael Keesey.

It's an interesting treatment of a complex subject. One that particularly resonates with me - an atheist who was raised within the YEC community, and who is familiar with it from the inside. And with the lies it tells about science.

Partly it was the fault of teachers who didn't think I would check on what they told me. I've always been interested in science, and was an avid reader outside of my schoolwork. I started to see things published that entirely contradicted their claims.

Interestingly enough, one of the biggest things was seeing Penzias and Wilson awarded the Nobel prize in 1978. Pretty hard to continue claiming there's no evidence for something when a couple American scientists got the Nobel Prize for finding it.
