I read this review and wondered if he and I read the
same book. Coyne makes it seem as if Ruse is some
sort of Christian apologist. Ruse is as fundamental
of a materialist (and I assume atheist) as they come.
So, I found it perplexing the degree to which Coyne
tried to paint him as an apologist who suffered from
just plain fuzzy thinking.
I think deep down Coyne's problem is with Christian
theology, which he doesn't understand but Ruse at
least does. As Ruse once said about Dawkins, "He's
pig ignorant about Christian theology."
I find it somewhat amusing to see one materialist
trying to tar and feather another because they are
essentially not intolerant enough of Christian
theology and truth claims.
Anyone read the book and the review as well?
Comments, thoughts?
