Summary
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 stimulating and thought-provoking audiobook, John Lennox invites us to consider such claims very carefully. Is it really true, he asks, that everything in science points towards atheism? Could it be possible that theism sits more comfortably with science than atheism? Has science buried God or not? Now updated and expanded, God's Undertaker is an invaluable contribution to the debate about science's relationship to religion.

Incredible book, terrible narration. Buy the hard copy
The book itself is wonderful. A great expansion on all the topics Lennox is well known for debating and talking on. Clear and well reasoned arguments, written in easy to understand ways regardless of your background. I will most certainly buy more of his work, but not the audio versions as I see many are by the same narrator as this. Hard to listen to for the most part. Reads logical arguments based on factual information like it’s poetry for putting children to sleep, softening his voice randomly at times making it hard to understand where the emphasis in each line goes. Also a lot of words are mispronounced, and not even consistently, sometimes pronounced a different way again to the incorrect way. I know there are different accents worldwide but iv never heard anyone read like this. One might be forgiven for mistaking this for a book read by AI, who understands how to read and speak, but not any of the context of the information they are trying to convey. You won’t be disappointed in buying this book, but get a paper copy.

Facts not fiction
Here you have the explanations to how it all started.
There is something for those who knows a lot about sicens and the you have some for the scientists... At times I don't understand the words...but somehow it made sense

Astonishing book.
It preaches to the converted as far as I am concerned, but critically; and the level of detail from an informed source (he is a group theorist rather than an empirical scientist) is very flattering to the hearer; and the writing as lucid as his adversary Peter Atkins. The Bootstrap Paradox very well explained and the related dishonesty (whether deliberate or thoughtless) of the Naturalistic Paradigm also. Really, this book is about the uses to which evidence can be put.
If you are not interested in the origin of the universe, then this is still a very good overview of a lot of science.

Content seems good but narration is terrible.
Disappointed! This is a topic i find incredibly interesting and I believe the content of the book to be very good, But the performance is very distracting. I got about 2 hours in, thinking I might get used to the narrators voice. I didn't. It just got more distracting. Like listening to Microsoft Sam reading. May have to get the hard copy and read it myself.
