The Divinity Code

This is not just another 'God' book. This is the definitive slap-down, slam-dunk, no-holds-barred prize title fight between the Divine and Richard Dawkins.

Take a ringside seat as investigative journalist Ian Wishart presents the explosive scientific and historical evidence of a divinity code - an "inconvenient truth" that Dawkins and others have no credible explanation for, evidence that is turning both science and religion on their heads.

Is there a rational explanation for the existence of the Universe, given the latest data? How did life arise? What about the evolution/intelligent design controversy? Aren't all religions equal? Did Jesus Christ even exist?

Written in Wishart's acclaimed page-turner style, The Divinity Code is punchy, informative and easy to read... Watch as one of the country's hardest-hitting journalists turns his guns on a Zoologist (Dawkins), a Bishop (John Spong), a fellow journalist (Christopher Hitchens) and a former nun (Karen Armstrong), this is the ultimate shoot-out of the 'God' books...

REVIEWS:

From Amazon reviewer M S Aitchison: ""The Divinity Code" wins in every way that really matters, and is likely to be both a helpful first read for some people on the most important questions of life, and a work that "raises the bar" for the opposition writers to try to match.

"As the book's name may imply, this is a response to several popular modern books that either aim to debunk Christianity or cash-in on concepts of secret codes and so on. Ian Wishart debunks the debunkers, with style and humour - and the obvious confidence of a researcher who has done a lot more homework than those he discredits. The main authors in his sights are Richard Dawkins, John Spong, Christopher Hitchens, and Karen Armstrong. He packs the 300-odd pages with many facts, mostly much better referenced and more logically assembled than I have come to expect from many of the authors he argues against."

From Keeping Stock: "Wishart s research is thorough, and his opinions are supported by facts. Wishart draws together a wealth of evidence supporting the life, death and resurrection of Jesus and in the process, makes a compelling case. And despite his disagreements with Dawkins, with Christopher Hitchens and with Lloyd Geering, Wishart reserves his strongest condemnation for Bishop John Shelby Spong. In chapter 14, Resurrection Fact or Fiction, Wishart hoists Spong by his own petard, pointing out the absurdity of the Bishop's claims about the central nugget of Christianity"

From NZ Catholic newspaper: "I m having a cracking good read of another cracking good read - The Divinity Code by Ian Wishart, his follow-up book to Eve's Bite which was also a cracking good read. I don t know Wishart's following, other than that he is a Christian and came to Faith from atheism a number of years ago. The Divinity Code is one of the best *Christian* apologetic books I have read. There are a few small details that I think shows that he is not Catholic, but it is an excellent book nevertheless. Don't miss reading it if you can."

From The Bible Geek: "a very compelling response to books such as "The God Delusion" by Richard Dawkins. In the book Wishart explores a variety of protests to the existence of God and the authenticity of the Bible, and pulls apart the latest round of atheistic posturing and in the process demonstrates that Christianity stands up to scientific and historical evidence extremely well when it is looked at through an unbiased lense.

"The concepts that Wishart points to in the first few chapters, which deal with the origin of the world have mostly been overlooked by the atheist community. The second half of the book deals much more specifically with the Biblical claims (the existence of Christ, His resurrection, miracles and prophecy are all included). Wishart explores the attacks on scripture from recent books and rantings and then proceeds to demonstrate the shortfalls of the opposing arguments"
