Description
"Why?" may be the most common and emotionally charged question in human experience.
With the Bible in one hand and the latest scientific findings in the other, astronomer Hugh Ross tackles many of our most pressing cosmic "why" questions. If God made the universe,
? why would he make it so vast?
? why would he wait to bring humans onto the scene?
? why would he allow decay and death to be part of it?
? why would he let one man and one woman ruin it for everyone?
? why should I believe my life has any real meaning?
? why is the future of the cosmos so bleak?
Within these pages you will find compelling answers to these questions--answers that give you reasons to believe that our finely tuned universe "shouts loudly that life is more than a cosmic accident."
