I'd like to know if anyone else has ever read Finding Darwin's God by Dr. Kenneth Miller? It's a great book that I've read several times, and I'm actually thinking about reading it yet again this summer. Miller makes a lot of very good arguments that are very well-explained so as to be comprehensible to almost any audience. The main point of his book is that evolutionary science and traditional faith should not be opposed to each other, but should complement each other; a point I've labored to make here many a time.

If anyone knows of some good books on the topic of evolution, I'd be interested to hear about it.
Generally speaking, the more people talk about "being saved," the further away they actually are from true salvation.

I have seen that book once but I do not remember when and where. Unfortunately, it is already out-of stock in most of the bookstores here. I believe that it must be a good book for you have read it many times.
