After entering the third decade of the 21st century, it is almost impossible to reconcile with the official standing presented to us in textbooks and encyclopedia: “What we know today of the origin of man is the result of scientific research from the first half of the 19th century, prompted mainly by the publication of On the Origin of Species by Charles Darwin.”

It’s sad that we are still served the “scientific” postulate of humans originating from apes, especially after 210 years after Darwin’s birth (1809), 160 years since the first publication of On the Origin of Species (1859), on top of the colossal development of science and technology.

I had to put the word “scientifically” in quotation marks because the theory of evolution has never been scientifically confirmed. To its most ardent supporter Richard Dawkins, and to his all and one attempts to wrap the Darwin hypothesis (that would be the correct name) in decorative cellophane and sell it to us as a valid theory, I respond ardently.  Hence, the subtitle „Richard Dawkins’ delusions about the evolution “of Life between axioms work.

Inspired by Francis S. Collins’s research into the Map of the human genome and his remarkable work under the title of The Language of God (2000) that dives deep into intricacies of complex relations between science and faith in God, similarly,  Life between axioms offers abundant data for readers to reason, find answers for themselves keeping their own hearts, truths, unique background contexts and origin, values, experiences and languages of expression close at hand, and boldly set feet onto the wonderful journey of discovery and synchronization of their subjective and the objective.

Recognizing science as the “only reliable way to understand the natural world” with “its tools when properly utilized can generate profound insights into material existence” Collins dares to raise testing questions about potency of science:

‘Why did the universe come into being?’

‘What is the meaning of human existence?’

‘What happens after we die?’

searching for synthesis between the two opposing views:

“One of the strongest motivations of humankind is to seek answers to profound questions, and we need to bring all the power of both the scientific and spiritual perspectives to bear on understanding what both is seen and unseen.”

The book Life between axioms gives the open-minded, bias free readers oodles of arguments and food for thought to think for themselves and choose their own view of the world we live in.

“True human wisdom is to be aware of our ignorance, especially when it comes to our need to know what is good. Socrates

Life between axioms i.e., exploration into yet another trying question like “Whether to become a believer and why?” is written to serve as stimuli for readers’ mind and heart so that they are encouraged to look beyond and above the sea of ignorance, troubles, harm, conflicts resulting in destruction among people, nations, ideologies, religions, and civilizations.

Life between axioms invites readers to learn, explore, question, be curious, only to get to more insights and understanding of better ways of growing closer to one another as human beings.
