In my previous blog post, a few weeks ago, I reviewed acclaimed geneticist and present head of the NIH Francis Collins' The Language of God: A Scientist Presents Evidence for Belief (2007). Serendipitously I chanced upon a book by theoretical physicist Taner Edis entitled Science and Nonbelief (2008) which provides a demurral to Collins' evidence. I share Edis' viewpoint here.

A SCIENTIST TURNS TO GOD - REVIEW OF FRANCIS COLLINS' "THE LANGUAGE OF GOD"
Francis Collins, the geneticist who is justly celebrated for having discovered the genetic mutations for cystic fibrosis, neurofibromatosis and Huntington's disease and for heading the Human Genome Project, is also devoutly religious.
In his book The Language of God: A Scientist Presents Evidence for Belief (2007), he lays out his arguments for why any rational person would believe in God. His arguments are for the most part not Christian arguments; they are scientific arguments which any believer should be profoundly aware of.
