The Divinity Code by Ian Wishart – A science-driven investigation into God, origins and belief.

The Divinity Code by Ian Wishart is a meticulously researched, evidence-based book that tackles some of the biggest questions facing science, religion and modern belief systems.

The book sets out to examine whether recent scientific and historical discoveries actually point away from God – or unexpectedly back toward one.

Wishart draws together findings from cosmology, physics, biology and archaeology, arguing that new data is forcing even prominent atheists to soften their certainty. He explores the origin of the universe, the fine-tuning problem, how life began, and whether evolution alone can explain biological complexity. Rather than relying on faith-based claims, the book focuses on what current evidence does – and does not – explain.

The Divinity Code also tackles religion and history, asking whether all religions are equal, and whether Jesus Christ was a real historical figure. Wishart examines non-biblical sources, early manuscripts and historical records, challenging the idea that Christianity is built purely on myth.

Wishart presents his case as an “inconvenient truth” – evidence that unsettles both hardline atheism and comfortable religious assumptions.

This book is ideal for readers interested in science and faith debates, sceptics who enjoy evidence-based arguments, and anyone curious about whether belief in God is still rational in light of modern discoveries.
