Origin
of the Human Species
By Dr. Dennis Bonnette
Published 2003: 268 Pages
Although there are hundreds of books dealing with evolutionary theory and human origins, the large majority fall into one of two categories:
- Conventional natural science that embrace either atheistic naturalism or theistic evolutionism that fails to support basic elements of Christian theology particularly the historicity of Adam and Eve and the reality of Original Sin
- Young earth creation science whose scientific credentials are suspect.
Origin of the Human Species differs in that it shows in great detail how conventional human evolutionary theory is entirely compatible with sound Scriptural interpretation and traditional theology. Dr. Bonnette explores the force of opposing views, but adds philosophical analysis that affirms the absolute need for God's continuous creative presence in any metaphysically complete explanation of the world.
