The Mythology of Science
By R.J. Rushdoony. This book points out the
fraud of the empirical claims of much modern
science since Charles Darwin. This book is about
the religious nature of evolutionary thought,
how these religious presuppositions underlie
our modern intellectual paradigm, and how
they are deferred to as sacrosanct by institutions
and disciplines far removed from the empirical
sciences. The “mythology” of modern science is its religious devotion
to the myth of evolution. Evolution “so expresses or coincides
with the contemporary spirit that its often radical contradictions
and absurdities are never apparent, in that they express the basic
presuppositions, however untenable, of everyday life and thought.” In
evolution, man is the highest expression of intelligence and reason,
and such thinking will not yield itself to submission to a God it views
as a human cultural creation, useful, if at all, only in a cultural context.
The basis of science and all other thought will ultimately be found in
a higher ethical and philosophical context; whether or not this is seen
as religious does not change the nature of that context. “Part of the
mythology of modern evolutionary science is its failure to admit that
it is a faith-based paradigm.”

Alive: An Enquiry into the Origin and
Meaning of Life
By Dr. Magnus Verbrugge, M.D. This study is of
major importance as a critique of scientific theory,
evolution, and contemporary nihilism in scientific
thought. Dr. Verbrugge, son-in-law of the late
Dr. H. Dooyeweerd and head of the Dooyeweerd
Foundation, applies the insights of Dooyeweerd’s
thinking to the realm of science. Animism and
humanism in scientific theory are brilliantly discussed.

Creation According to the Scriptures
Edited by P. Andrew Sandlin. Subtitled: A
Presuppositional Defense of Literal Six-Day
Creation, this symposium by thirteen authors
is a direct frontal assault on all waffling views
of Biblical creation. It explodes the “Framework
Hypothesis,” so dear to the hearts of many
respectability-hungry Calvinists, and it throws
down the gauntlet to all who believe they can
maintain a consistent view of Biblical infallibility while abandoning
literal, six-day creation. It is a must reading for all who are observing
closely the gradual defection of many allegedly conservative churches
and denominations, or who simply want a greater grasp of an
orthodox, God-honoring view of the Bible.

A Biblical Approach to Wealth

in dangerous straits. This book discusses why
a business is the best investment, as well as the
issues of debt avoidance and insurance. Wealth
is a tool for dominion men to use as faithful
stewards.
