Are the worlds of science and religion irreconcilable?

Has modern science with its theory of evolution disproved the biblical account of the origin of life? If one accepts the biblical account of origins, does one then have to reject science?

Scientist and Christian believer Ariel A. Roth argues that taken together, science and religion give us a more complete and sensible understanding of the world around us, our place in it, and our ultimate meaning and fate.

Roth examines such topics as the evidence for evolution and creation, the Flood, the strengths and limitations of the scientific method, and the reliability of Scripture. He concludes that the biblical model of a recent creation by God leaves fewer unanswered questions than either science’s evolutionary model or any view between the two positions, such as progressive creation or theistic evolution.

Beside teaching biology, Ariel Roth has spent 30 years researching areas in which science and religion touch each other and sometimes offer conflicting perspectives.

He holds a Ph.D. in zoology from the University of Michigan, taught at Andrews and Loma Linda universities, and from 1980 to 1994 was director of the Geoscience Research Institute.

Roth has also been involved in the evolution-creation controversy in the United States, testifying before many educational and legal groups, and has conducted numerous geological and paleontological field trips around the world.
