A NIGHT OWL REVIEWS BOOK REVIEW | Reviewed by: Bmac
The Genesis One Code tackles the truth of the beginning. Where did it all begin? The centuries old rivalry between science and religion has left both sides attempting to boast the knowledge of the creation of earth and life, and prove one theory right while effectively disproving the other. Is the competition between the two entities simply misplaced opposition of two sides of the same coin? Some would argue that they are in fact dependent upon each other and provide revelations of truth within each other. Imagine how the relationship between science and religion would change if ancient documents from medieval times were recovered that exposed the connections that would unite the two, that would prove truth in both. Could both the scientific time line and religious time line, different as they may seem, actually align perfectly and fortify and reinforce each other? After all, there is more than one way to skin a cat, so there must be more than one way to describe a particular phenomenal delineation. Launch into this enlightening trek that provides a startlingly poetic symbiosis between religion and science. Readers with a knowledge-craving, open mind will thoroughly enjoy this read and be delighted by its many elements and propositions.

Book Blurb for The Genesis One Code
Were the heavens and the earth created 6,000 years ago, as the Bible suggests? Or did the universe expand into existence nearly 14 billion years ago from a spontaneous "Big Bang"? Both dates cannot be right - or can they? Imagine that there were some medieval manuscripts, written eight hundred years ago, that could help us decipher Genesis to pinpoint exactly when the universe began, as identified by our most up-to-date cosmological theories. Further, suppose that these same manuscripts could help us extract from Genesis the timelines for the development of life on Earth, precisely as identified by the latest scientific evidence from the fossil record. The Genesis One Code offers a careful examination of the relationship between scientific theory and biblical teaching. The book targets the origins debate from a fresh perspective informed by scientific and spiritual research. This exploration demonstrates an alignment between the dates of key events described in Genesis 1 and 2 with those derived from scientific theory and observation. This alignment provides a compelling perspective deserving of thoughtful consideration.
