Big Bang Theology: The Reconciliation Of Science And Religion, Milton L. Boyle Jr.
Big Bang Theology: The Reconciliation Of Science And Religion, Milton L. Boyle Jr.
Bridgewater Review
A struggle began in 1633 which is not yet resolved. It is a contest for the highest possible stakes - the mind of man, and it pits two most formidable opponents against each other: science and religion. The event that initiated this battle was the trial of Galileo and the dominant issue was much more than a man's challenge of his church’s teachings and authority. Rather it was science versus religion, a new manifestation of an age-old struggle between faith and reason, the way man comes to know reality.

Pearl Harbor: Did Fdr Know?, David M. Culver
Pearl Harbor: Did Fdr Know?, David M. Culver
Bridgewater Review
At precisely 7:55 a.m., Sunday, December 7, 1941, the Japanese launched a devastating air attack on Hawaii, leaving 2403 Americans dead, eight battleships crippled or destroyed, and 188 planes demolished. “The worse disaster in the military annals of the United States,” in the words of a noted historian, plunged America into a global war and permanently changed the country. Isolationism was dead. Americans were united to win the war, and they were resolved never again to be caught by surprise. At the same time, they wanted to know why the Army and Navy were caught napping. Thus began a years-long …

Thinking About Life's Meaning, David Cheney, Steven Sanders
Thinking About Life's Meaning, David Cheney, Steven Sanders
Bridgewater Review
The lively controversy among people of diverse backgrounds and beliefs over the meaning of life suggests that philosophers are not alone in their enthusiasm for the issue. Nor are they content to leave the response to such questions entirely in the hands of poets, theologians, and psychologists. The fact is that the controversy itself is much in need of conceptual clarification, coherent articulation of issues and beliefs, and critical appraisal of conflicting viewpoints - all philosophical tasks. Our aim here is to offer a brief discussion of philosophical contributions to this topic. We shall survey the three most prominent views …
Myth And The Lincoln Assassination: Did John Wilkes Booth Escape?, Thomas Turner
Myth And The Lincoln Assassination: Did John Wilkes Booth Escape?, Thomas Turner
Bridgewater Review
The assassination of Abraham Lincoln, like most American assassinations, is surrounded by myth and legend. Unfortunately, there have been so many conspiracy theories created over a hundred-year period that it is now very difficult to separate fact from fiction. It is not always readily apparent why there should exist so many misconceptions concerning Lincoln's death since the events themselves appear to be rather simple.
Research Note: The Present Situation In Poland, Chester Nowak
Research Note: The Present Situation In Poland, Chester Nowak
Bridgewater Review
For almost two years now the whole world has been watching with fascination the development of the present crisis in Poland that was preceded by economic difficulties brought about by Premier Edward Gierek’s economic program. Gierek attempted to revitalize the Polish economy and modernize Polish industry by borrowing heavily from the West in order to pay for more advanced western technology. His initial plan seemed viable; however, it failed largely because of the mismanagement and the corruptive practices of the party’s bureaucrats. Consequently, as a result of the growing indebtedness to the West, Poland had to increase its exports at …
