Product Description
The Enlightenment is the basis of modern consciousness in the West: its theoretical tenets have become our assumptions. But what if those tenets are false? What if, rather than an Age of Reason, the 'Enlightenment' ushered in an Age of Darkness - an age of intolerance, mechanised warfare and horrific slaughter - an age we are still living through? Dave Holt shows how the assumptions of that age led directly to the rift between science and religion - via Darwin's Origin of Species, 'survival of the fittest' and the philosophical 'death of God' - and that the scientific method itself is inadequate to answer the ultimate questions that are too vast in time, dimension and complexity. By incorporating information and theories of the past sixty years that include the verification of ancient texts such as the Old Testament and Greek legends, he concludes that there are real tangible reasons for the existence of religion and man's character flaws, fragile mental health, susceptibility to chronic disease and obsession with conquest and war. With this insight into the real history and complex make-up of man, solutions may be possible. Wide-ranging in its research and thorough in its indictment of established theories, Holt is ultimately convincing in his argument for the importance of humankind's spiritual experience and an intelligent force behind the design of the universe.
