This paperback addresses the title question and 99 others dealing with creation, evolution, and science. Questions are arranged in seven topics such as Biblical Issues, Creation Questions, and Physical Science Questions.

As a sample, here are the first question in each topic: What Is the Purpose of Creation Ministry? Is There Evidence Against Evolution? Does Science Conflict with the Bible? Did God Lie to Us? Can Radioisotope Dating Be Trusted? In What Ways Has God Blessed America? How Do I Know There Really Is a God?

The book is written for the layman and is easily understood even when it deals with scientific concepts like radioisotope dating. Each answer covers only two pages which makes it easy to read the book in fits and starts when you have just a few minutes at a time.

The debate between creation and evolution is one of, if not the, key issue of our time. Is the Big Bang Biblical? is a very helpful resource for understanding essentials of the debate.
