What So Great About Christianity Dinesh D'Souza 9781596985179 Books

I was not expecting the level of rigor in addressing fundamental questions about Christianity.

Dinesh takes the topic head on using the dialectic academic approach to answer the questions.

The book is very well provenanced with hundreds of citations.

All that you hear in popular culture is Christian bashing. If you have a sense of history at all, you have to wonder what is true and what is not?

Dinesh demonstrates what many have long postulated, the rise of science and the Enlightenment in Europe was fueled by Christianity.

There is a sister book to this one that complements it well, “the Politically Incorrect Guide to Christianity.”

I recommend reading both of these books.

Well done Dinesh!

What So Great About Christianity Dinesh D'Souza 9781596985179 Books Reviews

I really admire D'Souza's writing style and how he presents the argument. This is a great apologetics book. I really love how he uses the secular point of view to defend Christianity, so that is a heads up for readers who are used to defending Christianity from the Christian view point. I could not put the book down as he defends Christianity from so many different angle rather than just the evolution versus creation argument so commonly heard.
I have been a Presbyterian pastor and bible teacher for over forty years and now am honorably retired, I continue to teach and study the faith of Jesus Christ. Controversial conservative scholar the Indian born Dinesh D'Souza is famous for his political book but this is my favorite of all his tomes! In it D'Souza launches a spirited and well researched defense of the Christian Church against atheism. The Church is an anvil which has worn out many hammers wielded by the challenges of modern atheists such as Christopher Hitchens, Carl Sagan, Richard Dawkins and many others.
D'Souza shows in this book
a. How the church has not been opposed to scientific inquiry
b. The author asserts that the basis of Western Society lies on the foundation of Christian morality and teaching over the centuries.
c. Good chapters in the book explore the Big Bang Theory and assert that the universe was created by God.
d. D'Sousza shows how Christianity is the fastest growing religion in the world and is particularly strong in Africa and South America.
D'Souza's book should be read by all interested Chrstians and non-Christians who wish to keep abreast of religion in America and the world. Well recommended!
This is my very first review and I am not "learned." In fact, I am a very simple guy. I'm Catholic and I feel relatively knowledgeable of my religion and the only reason I bought "What's So Great About Christianity" is because of the author, Dinesh D'Souza. I saw him in a debate with a liberal underground terrorist who hates America, and I very much respected the fact that Dinesh loves America and defended our country so vigorously--and even used biblical scripture to describe its exceptional nature. Even though Dinesh is a scholar, the book is written at a level that even the basic reader can readily understand, and it is for Christian believers and non-believers alike. For persons at my simple level of thought, it provoked visions of creation and evolution such as the difference of WHO did it verses…WHAT happened? CREATION is of God and is the beginning. Evolution is of man, and about continuation, change, adaptation, and survival over time.

Yet, Dinesh's book certainly does not stop there; that's only the beginning There's Christianity and Limited Government, Science (Heck, I made the connection between Genesis and the medical term "genes"), the Theological Roots of Science, Christianity and the Invention of Invention, and I loved the chapter on Why Miracles are Possible ( It made me think how people want spectacles to see rather than miracles to believe. And how we couldn't even conceive of a miracle if none had ever happened. All things are possible. Or, how miracles don’t prove what is impossible; they confirm what is possible). Then, there's the old "Christian Inquisition" issue Dinesh explores it with a sense of openness and critique, yet without bias.

Toward the end, Dinesh speaks to Atheism, Why Unbelief is So Appealing, and Where the Atheists Are When Bad Things Happen. While Dinesh does not indict atheists for their wait and see posture, he does make a very strong case for the rest of us--especially our youth--not to be taken in by their highly emotional rhetoric and pseudo-science claims that sound so "good" and "right."

Ultimately, Dinesh speaks to Why Man is More Than Matter. We are God's creation and God's light in the world. Our nature is light. As I read I could envision a darkened room, but the moment we turned on a light--the darkness of the room is dispersed and chased away. And it doesn't matter if the room has been dark for one week or 30 years, when our light switch is on--darkness is gone. So when Dinesh talks about man being more than matter--he's absolutely right. There's the "problems of man", and then there's "man as the problem." We must believe who and what we are. Dinesh spells it out for us in his wonderful book, What's So Great About Christianity.
