Why God? Book

Why here? Why now? Why God? Why, at the dawn of a new millennium, nearly a century after Nietzsche declared His demise, should a reasoning, educated man or woman make the choice to believe in God? In an imperfect world, should we believe in God? can we? ought we? If so, why? These are precisely the questions Why God? seeks to answer. From a plethora of diverse sources, von Wodtke has compiled what may be the conclusive collection of reasons to believe. Calling upon authorities ranging from paleontologists to poets, von Wodtke lets the experts speak for themselves in answering what is perhaps the most pressing question of our -- or any -- age: why believe? As Johann Sebastian Bach wrote at the top of each and every score he penned: Soli Deo Gloria -- Glory to God alone. So be it!
