Download or read book Astronomy for the Layman written by Carl Zimmerling and published by Everpower Company. This book was released on 1995 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This title offers a critical comparison between scientific facts versus ancient religious teachings, superstition and writings, written at a time when science was practically unknown. It is also based on many years of observing the often devastating results of religious mis-teachings during many years of overseas travel to 50 countries. A strong influence of recent astronomical discoveries also contributed to my acceptance of humanism/atheism and turning away from any religion, including Christianity. A book of particular interest to those readers still "sitting on the fence" between scientific reality and religious fiction.
