God's Undertaker: Has Science Buried God?

Story
If we are to believe many modern commentators, science has squeezed God into a corner, killed and then buried him with its all-embracing explanations. Atheism, we are told, is the only intellectually tenable position, and any attempt to reintroduce God is likely to impede the progress of science. In this audiobook, John Lennox invites us to consider such claims very carefully. Is it really true, he asks, that everything in science points towards atheism? Has science buried God? God's Undertaker is an invaluable contribution to the debate about science's relationship to religion.

Story
Daniel's story is one of extraordinary faith in God lived out at the pinnacle of executive power. It tells of four teenage friends, born in the tiny state of Judah about 26 centuries ago, but captured by Nebuchadnezzar, emperor of Babylon. Daniel describes how they eventually rose to the top echelons of administration. Daniel and his friends did not simply maintain their private devotion to God; they maintained a high-profile witness in a pluralistic society antagonistic to their faith.

An inspiring new perspective on the science versus religion debate. Can science explain everything? Many people think so. Science, and the technologies it has spawned, has delivered so much to the world: Clean water; more food; better healthcare; longer life. And we live in a time of rapid scientific progress that holds enormous promise for many of the problems we face as humankind. So much so, in fact, that many see no need or use for religion and belief systems that offer us answers to the mysteries of our universe. Science has explained it, they assume. Religion is redundant.

Having sold over half a million copies in the UK alone, his overview of Christianity has been imitated many times, but never outdone. Mere Christianity brings together Lewis’s legendary broadcasts from the war years; talks in which he set out simply to ‘"explain and defend the belief that has been common to nearly all Christians at all times."

At first we see darkly
- By Fraser Jeremy Clark on 17-08-20
Summary
Atheism is on the march in the western world, and its enemy is God.
Religion, the "New Atheists" claim, is "dangerous", "kills", or "poisons" everything. And if religion is the problem with the world, their answer is simple: Get rid of it. But are things really so straightforward?
Tackling the likes of Richard Dawkins, Stephen Hawking, Christopher Hitchens, and Daniel Dennett head on, John Lennox highlights the fallacies in the their approach, arguing that their irrational and unscientific methodology leaves them guilty of the same obstinate foolishness of which they accuse dogmatic religious folks.
Erudite and wide-ranging, Gunning for God packs some debilitating punches. It also puts forward new ideas about the nature of God and Christianity that will give the New Atheists' best friends and worst enemies alike some stimulating food for thought.

Great content, terrible narration
This is like having a book read to you by the Siri voice on your phone. I managed to complete the book and did get used to the voice to a degree, but a great deal is lost due to the monotony and odd syllable emphasis of the narrator.
The content was genuinely great and as a bit of a 'doubting thomas' Christian I enjoyed the content of the book greatly, discussing in an intelligent and honest manner some of the challenging questions that the 'new atheists' have raised. I imagine I would have enjoyed it more in paper.

Book - Excellent, Narration - Issues
This book is excellent, so good that I think it's still worth listening to, despite the narration issues. However, it really needs re-recording. The narrator is easy to listen to, but word pronunciation is sometimes wrong, especially with people's names. In other places, it was frustrating that words were mis-read. In one section, "causal relationship" was mis-read as "casual relationship" multiple times! Regarding the book itself, John Lennox is fantastic and so is this book, I'd say it's unmissable for anyone interested in this topic.

Disconnected by the narrator
I love Lennox and am a huge fan of his books. However, the excellent and important content of this book for me was completely ruined by the narrator. The warm, intimate and humorous personality of John Lennox is so much a part of absorbing his astounding knowledge and making it possible for even non-scientist to not be intimidated by the content. I am not saying Mr. Crockett needs to imitate John but his lack of melody, vocal inflections and general vocal tone of familiarity is like listening to someone read some other person's scientific and philosophical report.....very boring and neurologically anesthetizing.
If you can persevere with Crockett narration John's content is powerful, as always.

Narrator struggles
It is unfortunate that such a good book is diminished by poor narration skills. The narrator often mispronounces words. He also reads as if he is in a confined space and is unnaturally speaking as if trying not to let people overhear his conversation. I can’t bear to listen long enough to finish the book.

An excellent book -- mediocrely read
The book's content is excellent. It provides plenty of "ammunition" to defend against the "New Atheism", and I got a lot of it. I will be reading this book over and over again -- studying it, in fact -- in order to become adept at this "ammunition".
However, the narrator is just OK. His fluency is fine, but his tone tends to the monotonous. Also, his mispronunciation of words is frequently jarring and distracting. But don't let the narrator's follies dissuade you from this book. It's a great read, whether in print or Audible!

I enjoyed this book quite a lot. It is largely a response to R. Dawkin’s “The God Delusion”. It picks Dawkin’s position apart handily, showing Dawkin’s many fallacies and bad suppositions.
