This book is a creationist book. It is not anti-science. By tying man's origin to the evolution of an impersonal, uncreated universe, Charles Darwin tied man's destiny to the temporal fate of the impersonal universe. In either case, all trace of man will disppear. The works of man's hands disappear forever.
Life is swallowed up in death.
This is the teaching of scientist regarding the second law of thermodynamics. This process destroys cosmic meaning and purpose. If man was born by cosmic meaninglessness, and dies by cosmic meaninglessness, then any temporary meaning that man creates is an illusion. What modern man needs is a message of hope. Hope must be cosmic if it is to be personal hope.
