great interview. He had a lot of great points and i agreed with his perspective on many issues. thanks for posting.
Along with John Polkinghorne, McGrath is one of the best science and religion Christian writers out there.
McGrath's historical scholarship on the reformation is also very good. His biography of Calvin was fascinating--and I'm not even a Calvinist! :)
I really like Alister McGrath. He's very intelligent, nuanced, and respectful.
Thank you for posting this superb interview. Dr. McGrath is a great inspiration to me. I hope we'll see more contributions from him on your website. God bless you and your ministry.
