More than Bananas - How the Christian faith works for me and the whole Universe

By Glenn Myers

Recovering rather unexpectedly from a four-week coma in 2013, I wrote this book as my attempt to address the big questions. Here's the blurb:

It's the biggest mystery.
If the Universe were a funfair -- galaxies whirling like fairground rides, streams of gas and dust strewn across the sky like bunting, people wandering through it eating hot-dogs -- where did it come from?
--Who put it there?
Science does a wonderful job explaining part of the story. It can get us from a few moments after the Big Bang to the bit where the hairy beings amble over the African Savannah eating soft fruit.
It just can't do the beginning, or the end, or the meaning.
It can't tell us why there is something, rather than nothing at all. And it can't tell us how the fruit-eating primates turned into people who hum music, write novels, invent day-time TV and ponder the Nature of Being.
For that, we need something more than bananas.
More than Bananas is a freewheeling exploration of how we all (might) have happened -- and what to do about it.
