“The New Atheists and scriptural literalists are not the only games in town,” says Dowd. “In contrast to Richard Dawkins’ God-less universe, tens of millions of us in the middle celebrate both Jesus and Darwin. For us, religious faith is strengthened by what God is revealing through science.”

As museums and universities the world over prepare to celebrate the 150th anniversary of On the Origin of Species this fall, evangelist Michael Dowd is on a mission to help fellow Christians accept evolution.

Dubbed an ‘evolutionary evangelist’ by Discover magazine, Michael Dowd is a traveling preacher with an unorthodox message: “Evolution is God’s will and humanity’s salvation, and contrary to popular belief, Armageddon and the Apocalypse are not inevitable.”

His new book Thank GOD for EVOLUTION–published in paperback this summer by Plume–celebrates science as sacred and has been publicly praised by religious leaders from priests to rabbis, and prominent scientists, including 6 Nobel Prize winners–a NASA senior astrophysicist among them.

In Thank GOD for EVOLUTION: How the Marriage of Science and Religion Will Transform Your Life and Our World (Viking/On-Sale Date: June 19, 2008/978-0-670-02045-4/$24.95) , Dowd transforms the current debate and clearly presents why it is now possible to view evolution as deeply meaningful, even sacred. Just as scientific theories evolve and expand over time with new discoveries and new information, Dowd proposes that divine revelation is not limited to the Bible, but continues to be discovered through science. “Facts are God’s native tongue,” he writes.
