Just picked up The Science of God by Gerald L. Schroder. From the preface, and pertinent to recent toots here : "Why would God have described our cosmic history in the Bible in terms that seem to contradict the workings of the universe? The Bible was accountable to its earliest audience, a largely uneducated population of recently freed slaves, as it would be to scholars through the ages. So it works on a number of levels and is filled with subtle hints of much deeper truths confirmed by the underlying truths of nature. "
