Oxford mathematician and author John Lennox takes a closer look at Hawking's logic regarding what brought the universe into being. In lively, layman's terms, Lennox guides us through the key points in Hawking's arguments - with clear explanations of the latest scientific and philosophical methods and theories - and demonstrates that far from disproving a creator God, they make his existence seem all the more probable.

Story
An inspiring new perspective on the science versus religion debate. Can science explain everything? Many people think so. Science, and the technologies it has spawned, has delivered so much to the world: Clean water; more food; better healthcare; longer life. And we live in a time of rapid scientific progress that holds enormous promise for many of the problems we face as humankind. So much so, in fact, that many see no need or use for religion and belief systems that offer us answers to the mysteries of our universe. Science has explained it, they assume. Religion is redundant.

Story
If we are to believe many modern commentators, science has squeezed God into a corner, killed and then buried him with its all-embracing explanations. Atheism, we are told, is the only intellectually tenable position, and any attempt to reintroduce God is likely to impede the progress of science. In this audiobook, John Lennox invites us to consider such claims very carefully. Is it really true, he asks, that everything in science points towards atheism? Has science buried God? God's Undertaker is an invaluable contribution to the debate about science's relationship to religion.

Atheism is on the march in the western world, and its enemy is God. And if religion is the problem with the world, their answer is simple: Get rid of it. But are things really so straightforward? Tackling the likes of Richard Dawkins, Stephen Hawking, Christopher Hitchens, and Daniel Dennett head on, John Lennox highlights the fallacies in the their approach, arguing that their irrational and unscientific methodology leaves them guilty of the same obstinate foolishness of which they accuse dogmatic religious folks.

Daniel's story is one of extraordinary faith in God lived out at the pinnacle of executive power. It tells of four teenage friends, born in the tiny state of Judah about 26 centuries ago, but captured by Nebuchadnezzar, emperor of Babylon. Daniel describes how they eventually rose to the top echelons of administration. Daniel and his friends did not simply maintain their private devotion to God; they maintained a high-profile witness in a pluralistic society antagonistic to their faith.

Biblical Christianity is more than just another private religious view. It's more than just a personal relationship with God or a source of moral teaching. Christianity is a picture of reality. It explains why the world is the way it is. When the pieces of this puzzle are properly assembled, we see the big picture clearly. Christianity is a true story of how the world began, why the world is the way it is, what role humans play in the drama, and how all the plotlines of the story are resolved in the end.

This audiobook is a long-awaited major statement by a pre-eminent analytic philosopher, Alvin Plantinga, on one of our biggest debates - the compatibility of science and religion. The last twenty years has seen a cottage industry of books on this divide, but with little consensus emerging. Plantinga, as a top philosopher but also a proponent of the rationality of religious belief, has a unique contribution to make. His theme in this short book is that the conflict between science and theistic religion is actually superficial, and that at a deeper level they are in concord.

Publisher's Summary
You don't have to be a computer scientist to get involved in the discussion about where artificial intelligence and technology are going.
What will the year 2084 hold for you - for your friends, for your family, and for our society? Are we doomed to the grim dystopia imagined in George Orwell's 1984?
In 2084, scientist and philosopher John Lennox will introduce you to a kaleidoscope of ideas: the key developments in technological enhancement, bioengineering, and, in particular, artificial intelligence. You will discover the current capacity of AI, its advantages and disadvantages, the facts and the fiction, as well as potential future implications.
The questions posed by AI are open to all of us. And they demand answers. A work that is made to challenge all listeners, no matter your worldview, 2084 shows how the Christian worldview, properly understood, can provide evidence-based, credible answers that will bring you real hope for the future of humanity.

another stellar work from Lennox!
Lennox continues to challenge me to think more deeply about current issues in light of biblical truth.
also if, like me, you are at all hesitant about things eschatological- this is a great foray into the topic

A needed Christian voice on this topic.
John makes a clear case for the Christian to be informed and engaged in the matter of AI and the larger matter of man pursuit of god absent of Christ. This was an excellent weaving of AI’s role in Biblical eschatology.

A timely, fascinating little book.
This book is concise and well written and as with his other works demonstrates the extraordinarily wide and deep knowledge of Science, Philosophy and Biblical Christianity. The conclusions it draws seem to be philosophically strong and logically sound. There really are very few authors who can draw from such a breadth of knowledge and comment authoritatively on such topics and in such a refreshing way. Along with fellow intellectual titans: Dr William Lane Craig and Professor Anthony Flew: Lennox is one of my favourite authors. In my opinion this book is well worth reading.

Bizarre, tedious, churlish, and very disappointing
Quite a tedious experience in such a fascinating topic.
There were sections of this book I could scarcely believe what I was hearing. Using passages of the Bible to desperately argue with AI seemed forced, strained, and just downright strange.
The author is clearly an intellectual heavyweight, you just need to look at his education and achievements to see that. And so I was especially surprised at the quite churlish tone of this book. It felt more like an infantile hatched job book report on other books.
I did love his explanation of the differences between the worlds of Orwell's 1984 and Huxley's Brave New World. Perfectly, succinctly explained and I'll certainly be citing that in future.
Once he got into the meat of the discussion and it all became Bible references and desperately tedious links to magic talking snakes and the like I just couldn't take this seriously. It was a real struggle to try and focus on his reasoning and try to set aside the mysticism. The problem is his entire argument hinges on you believing in the bible being real, if you don't it's a farce. So unfortunately I felt alienated as a reader doing my best to inform myself of a facet of this topic I do not usually consider. But maybe it was unfair of me to expect anything other than just that.
I was expecting a considered, reasoned moral debate on the value of AI and an effective, thought-provoking view of the moral and existential crisis that AI introduces to humanity. But it doesn't really do that. It just tries desperately to apply bible verses to AI. "We aren't God so we shouldn't" was more or less what he says. "We shouldn't augment ourselves with technology because God would be cross" was another point. "Jesus is the OG Homo Deus and we best not be stepping on his toes" was another. It all felt infantile, reductive, and narrow in scale.
I think he really missed the opportunity to have a grown-up discussion on morality in AI and how it could potential cheapen or damage our humanity. That was clearly his aim but it just felt like political point-scoring for his religion. "My Holy book says this so we are right" rather than actually discussing it logically. But maybe that is what this was, an unapologetic Sunday school analysis on AI. But did anyone really need that?
The churlish adversarial tone he takes towards Harari and his books was utterly ridiculous. Constantly sniping and snarking. Very poor show, I expected more. I must confess I haven't read Harari's novels myself, but this book has certainly inspired me to do so. Which seems to be the opposite to what it was trying to achieve.
The chap actually doing the reading for the audiobook did a good job at keeping such dry material engaging. No problems in that department.
