Calculating God...

I recently finished a book called "Calculating God". I found it to be a great read on creationism, Darwin's evolution theory, religion vs. science, death and more. Written by Robert J. Sawyer who is a very prolific Canadian SciFi writer with numerous books and awards. This book was a 2001 Hugo Nominee. You can find the book by clicking the link below;

What is it that keeps science and religion from both being able to hold their truths to the idea of a God, as well as the evolutionary process? Can the two not exist together in theory and reality? This book goes through a series of discussions with visiting aliens who befriend a museum paleontologist in the Canadian ROM Museum who is dying of cancer. Written in a wonderful conversational style between humans and aliens to describe some intriguing scientific ideas and religious concepts that find the Universe is filled with the sameness in all of its randomness.
