The Scandal of the Evangelical Mind, by Mark A. Noll (HB, 1994, $3)
I had a hard time understanding parts of this book, probably because my mind is not wired to understand religious philosophy. Still, I found Scandal interesting for its premise that present day Evangelicals are too faith based, and too little research based. Noll's point, I think, is that though most universities were started by churches, almost all now are secular, and almost all research is done by secular scientists. Noll feels strongly that this should change. What do you think?
Look for this book in the blog section of the religion area, avail. 3/17.
