Hugh Ross closes divisive gap between faith and science

Amidst the age-old, divisive polemics between faith and science, astronomer Hugh Ross gives us reasons to believe that it is possible to bring these frontiers together and close the gap to create a chance for convergence.

Dr. Ross, founder of the influential Christian think-tank Reasons To Believe (RTB), demonstrates that science has the capacity to affirm our faith and confirm the veracity of the Bible.


As a man who values reason and recognizes its power to reveal truths, it’s not hard to understand that Dr. Ross will find God in science and discover scientific truths in the Bible. An astronomer and biblical scholar by profession, he is on a quest to spread the word that the fundamental issues on creation actually complement the scientific theories and principles on the origin of the earth and mankind.

Dr. Hugh Ross not only unearthed credible amount of fundamental scientific truths behind the Biblical account of creation but also objectively pointed out the “fingerprints of God” unrecognized in modern cosmological theories.


Although Dr. Ross’ scientific evangelism will understandably be frowned upon both by the fundamentalist Christians and hardcore advocates of Darwinian theory of evolution, it can’t be refuted for its novelty.


Dr. Ross’ theories may not be conventional, but these are uncongenial either. At the least, Ross must be credited for providing us new reasons to break the divisive elements that often tear apart our faith and unfairly criticize our needed dependence on scientific reason.
