Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The theory of relativity and quantum mechanics are the cornerstones of modern physics. While the former is based on startling but clear premises, the latter lays on entirely obscure foundations. Nevertheless, these theories have provided a wonderful description of the Universe, from atomic to cosmic scales, and their union as a relativistic quantum theory has produced the most precise description of atomic phenomena ever achieved. Much has been written about the mysteries of the atomic world revealed by quantum mechanics, to such an extent that this branch of physics has overreached its original framework. Many people, after reading a popular science book or an article in the press, believe that quantum mechanics can have amazing applications to a wide variety of topics. Thus, for instance, we find all over the market: quantum meditation, quantum medicine, quantum recipes for self-improvement, quantum cosmetics (a whole line of quantum shampoos, conditioners, soaps, detergents...) and a long etcetera. On the other hand, there are no relativistic shampoos or healing methods, but the theory has inspired many science-fiction books and films. Since, undeniably, the fundamental concepts of quantum mechanics are alien to our everyday experience, it is not surprising that some of the founding fathers of this new science -great figures such as Einstein and Schrödinger- looked for more intuitive explanations of their theoretical proposals. However, all their attempts failed. Nowadays, most physicists have resigned themselves to accepting the principles of quantum mechanics as articles of faith, since there is no doubt that this new science is successful beyond all expectations in describing the atomic world. Thus, "have faith and calculate" has become the maxim of quantum physicists. It is noteworthy that something similar is asked of believers: to have faith in the precepts and mysteries of the Church, however incomprehensible they may seem to our limited human understanding. There are mysteries, and we can find them in both the quantum and the religious worlds. In the following dialogues, two characters, Theodicius and Hylasphos, discuss about the mysteries of faith and those of quantum mechanics and relativity. Being the former a theologian and the latter a physicist, they compare the mysteries of religion with those of science and try accordingly, in just seven days of dialogue, to convey their concerns to the reader who has been patient enough to follow their arguments to the end.

Download or read book The Entangled God written by Kirk Wegter-McNelly and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-03-12 with total page 209 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Entangled God, Kirk Wegter-McNelly addresses the age-old theological question of how God is present to the world by constructing a novel, scientifically informed account of the God–world relation. Drawing on recent scientific and philosophical work in "quantum entanglement," Wegter-McNelly develops the metaphor of "divine entanglement" to ground the relationality and freedom of physical process in the power of God’s relational being. The Entangled God makes a three-fold contribution to contemporary theological and religious discourse. First, it calls attention to the convergence of recent theology around the idea of "relationality." Second, it introduces theological and religious readers to the fascinating story of quantum entanglement. Third, it offers a robust "plerotic" alternative to kenotic accounts of God’s suffering presence in the world. Above all, this book takes us beyond the view of theology and science as adversaries and demonstrates the value of constructively relating these two important areas of intellectual investigation.

Download or read book The Physics and Philosophy of the Bible written by James Frederick Ivey M.D. and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2017-12-05 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Albert Einstein taught that imagination is more important than knowledge, probably having come to this conclusion through a realization that almost all science represents belieffaithas opposed to knowledge. It should come as no surprise, then, that scienceespecially modern physics with its theories of relativity and quantum mechanicshas revolutionized thinking about the likelihood of the existence of God. In The Physics and Philosophy of the Bible, author and physician James Frederick Ivey explains how science, particularly quantum mechanics and relativity, aided by Platos philosophy and the history of Jewish people, can be utilized in order to virtually prove that God exists, that he is unique, and that he is the biblical deity. Ultimately an exploration of Christian philosophy and apologeticsincluding discussions of Christian history, secular retorts, the intersection of science and faith, and the relationship between physics and ultimate truthThe Physics and Philosophy of the Bible demonstrates that apologists are very close to the non-necessity of having to deal with whether God exists or not. From Platos earliest philosophical insights to the most groundbreaking discoveries in contemporary physics, we can find the fingerprints of God that prove He is with us. And. God seeks us just as we seek him, for he desires cognitive individuals with whom he can enjoy mutual love and intimacy.

Download or read book The Physics and Philosophy of the Bible written by James Frederick Ivey, MD and published by Inspiring Voices. This book was released on 2014-02 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the fundamental, profound, and comprehensive principle of "things are not as they seem," The Physics and Philosophy of the Bible establishes a paradigm that reattaches philosophy to physics, bringing it back whence it came while adding theology to the mix. Author James Frederick Ivey, MD, shows that this mind-set together with timeless thinking can lead one to new horizons of novel thinking about ultimate truth and truths.Ivey describes how modern physics, relativity, and quantum mechanics have revolutionized thinking about the likelihood of the existence of God and how the philosophies of Socrates and Plato meld nearly seamlessly with belief in a single deity and even with Judeo-Christianity.Through a variety of examples, thoughts from a diversity of authors and thinkers, and scriptural support, this study discusses Christian philosophy and apologetics, turning on a few fascinating concepts such as that of quantum observation in conjunction with God's method of creation and the derivation of God from all-goodness. It demonstrates that apologists are close to eliminating the necessity of having to deal with whether God exists or not.
