Book Synopsis Modern Physics and Ancient Faith by : Stephen M. Barr
Download or read book Modern Physics and Ancient Faith written by Stephen M. Barr and published by University of Notre Dame Pess. This book was released on 2003-02-28 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A considerable amount of public debate and media print has been devoted to the “war between science and religion.” In his accessible and eminently readable new book, Stephen M. Barr demonstrates that what is really at war with religion is not science itself, but a philosophy called scientific materialism. Modern Physics and Ancient Faith argues that the great discoveries of modern physics are more compatible with the central teachings of Christianity and Judaism about God, the cosmos, and the human soul than with the atheistic viewpoint of scientific materialism. Scientific materialism grew out of scientific discoveries made from the time of Copernicus up to the beginning of the twentieth century. These discoveries led many thoughtful people to the conclusion that the universe has no cause or purpose, that the human race is an accidental by-product of blind material forces, and that the ultimate reality is matter itself. Barr contends that the revolutionary discoveries of the twentieth century run counter to this line of thought. He uses five of these discoveries—the Big Bang theory, unified field theories, anthropic coincidences, Gödel’s Theorem in mathematics, and quantum theory—to cast serious doubt on the materialist’s view of the world and to give greater credence to Judeo-Christian claims about God and the universe. Written in clear language, Barr’s rigorous and fair text explains modern physics to general readers without oversimplification. Using the insights of modern physics, he reveals that modern scientific discoveries and religious faith are deeply consonant. Anyone with an interest in science and religion will find Modern Physics and Ancient Faith invaluable.

Book Synopsis Our Sacred Source by : Andrew Kneier
Download or read book Our Sacred Source written by Andrew Kneier and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2021-01-05 with total page 155 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Life is not a cakewalk for any of us. We each have our individual sufferings and challenges in life, and we each must endure vital questions that have no certain answers. Why are we here? Where is God when we need him? How do our lives matter in the long run? Our science cannot help us with such questions, but theology can. And that's what this book has to offer. This book's theology is based on an arresting theory about God. Turning to modern physics, it finds God in the origin of the universe and in the innermost foundations of the natural world. The universe flowed from his nature, but his nature was not perfect, which is why we have an imperfect world where bad things happen to good people. And yet we also find this God deep within us, enabling us to confront our suffering with resilience and grace. The evil in the world has power, but we have power too, the power from our inner God to hold steady against the slings and arrows of our misfortunes. The theology presented here builds on the discoveries of particle physics and quantum mechanics about the foundational building blocks and forces in all of creation. These reveal the abounding spirit and purposes of the Creator--a spirit that empowers us and instills in us purposes we can embrace and foster. It may seem we are essentially on our own as we navigate through life, but in this book's theology, God is always and everywhere with us and in us.
Book Synopsis The Physics and Philosophy of the Bible by : James Frederick Ivey M.D.
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.
Book Synopsis God and Natural Order by : Shaun C. Henson
Download or read book God and Natural Order written by Shaun C. Henson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-12-04 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In God and Natural Order: Physics, Philosophy, and Theology, Shaun Henson brings a theological approach to bear on contemporary scientific and philosophical debates on the ordered or disordered nature of the universe. Henson engages arguments for a unified theory of the laws of nature, a concept with monotheistic metaphysical and theological leanings, alongside the pluralistic viewpoints set out by Nancy Cartwright and other philosophers of science, who contend that the nature of physical reality is intrinsically complex and irreducible to a single unifying theory. Drawing on the work of theologian Wolfhart Pannenberg and his conception of the Trinitarian Christian god, the author argues that a theological line of inquiry can provide a useful framework for examining controversies in physics and the philosophy of science. God and Natural Order will raise provocative questions for theologians, Pannenberg scholars, and researchers working in the intersection of science and religion.
Book Synopsis Genesis One by : Dr. Gerald Schroeder
Download or read book Genesis One written by Dr. Gerald Schroeder and published by Zola Levitt Ministries. This book was released on 1998-01-01 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: According to Professor Gerald Schroeder, a nuclear physicist from MIT, God’s creation took 15 billion years, but also six twenty-four hour days as Scripture states! The answer lies in time dilation in our universe. Things that look very small, like distant stars, are actually very large. And times that seem very short, like six days for all of creation, become very long—even as long as 15 billion years. “How can these things be?” Just read this book.

Experts in their respective fields, these two authors provide a way to resolve seeming conflicting descriptions.
Book Synopsis The Physics of Genesis by : Jim Thompson
Download or read book The Physics of Genesis written by Jim Thompson and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evolution, creation, intelligent design-how did the world begin? With faithfulness to the biblical teaching of a six-day creation, The Physics of Genesis shows how the Creator answers this question in ways more wonderful than we can imagine. God first constructed a blueprint for the universe and then brought that blueprint to life. By examining the first book of the Bible, author Jim Thompson uncovers a text deeply rooted in physics and mathematics, revealing: Genesis anticipated discoveries that are emerging only now at the cutting edge of quantum physics, chaos research, and information theory. The Bible discloses in its number and word patterns deep structures that profoundly shape our world. Quantum theories of time help us understand exactly how Jesus Christ holds together our lives and our world each and every day. Neither a creationism tome nor a scaffold for any theory of evolution, The Physics of Genesis uses the language of physics to describe and analyze exactly how the universe was made and how it works. Its findings encourage the faith of those who want to believe but find Genesis, as they understand it, to be an intellectual barrier to faith. The Physics of Genesis shows that each of us can live daily within a worldview shaped by the Bible and informed by the best of contemporary science. In The Physics of Genesis, the creation-evolution debate is about to change. Rev. Jim Thompson has worked at the interface of science and conservative theology for thirty years. Having served as a mission developer, he is currently a hospice chaplain. Thompson holds a BS degree (summa cum laude) from Portland State University and an MDiv degree from Luther Theological Seminary, withadditional studies at the Graduate Theological Union in Berkeley, California. Married, he has two children and lives in New Mexico. The Physics of Genesis is Thompson's fourth book. He welcomes mail from readers at www.physicsofgenesis.com.
Download or read book In Six Days written by John Ashton and published by New Leaf Publishing Group. This book was released on 2001-01-01 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why would any educated scientist with a PhD advocate a literal interpretation of the six days of creation? Why, indeed, when only one in three Americans believes "the Bible is the actual word of God and is to be taken literally, word for word" according to a recent Gallup poll. Science can neither prove nor disprove evolution any more than it can creation. Certainly there are no human eyewitness accounts of either. However, certain factors are present today which are capable of swaying one's beliefs one way or the other. In this book are the testimonies of fifty men and women holding doctorates in a wide range of scientific fields who have been convicted by the evidence to believe in a literal six-day creation. For example, meet: The geneticist who concludes that there must have been 150 billion forerunners of "modern man" in order for the natural selection required by evolution to have taken place in the development of man. The evidence for such vast numbers of "prehistoric man" is in dire shortage. The orthodontist who discovered that European museum fossils of ancient man have been tampered with to adhere to evolution theories. The geologist who studied under the late Stephen Jay Gould and literally cut the Bible to pieces before totally rejecting evolution. All fifty of these scientists, through faith and scientific fact, have come to the conclusion that God's Word is true and everything had its origin not so very long ago, in the beginning, In Six Days.
Book Synopsis Thinking about Creation by : Andrew Goldfinger
Download or read book Thinking about Creation written by Andrew Goldfinger and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 344 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Six days or fifteen billion years? At first glance, the biblical and scientific accounts of the creation of the universe seem quite different. How then can there be modern twentieth century people who respect the methods and conclusions of science, yet take the Bible to be literally correct? The answer is given in this book. Dr. Andrew Goldfinger is a physicist by profession and a chasidic Jew by commitment. He takes the reader through the story of creation from both viewpoints.

Book Synopsis God and the Cosmos by : Harry Lee Poe
Download or read book God and the Cosmos written by Harry Lee Poe and published by InterVarsity Press. This book was released on 2012-02-16 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Theologian Harry Lee Poe and chemist Jimmy H. Davis argue that God's interaction with our world is a possibility affirmed equally by the Bible and the contemporary scientific record. Rather than confirming that the cosmos is closed to the actions of the divine, advancing scientific knowledge seems to indicate that the nature of the universe is actually open to the unique type of divine activity portrayed in the Bible.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Was God merely reprimanding Job for his presumption? Or was God also issuing an invitation to explore? The author shows how religious experience can illuminate our understanding of physics of light and how, in that light, we can see what modern physics shows us in God's creation.
Book Synopsis Science and Creation by : John C. Polkinghorne
Download or read book Science and Creation written by John C. Polkinghorne and published by Templeton Foundation Press. This book was released on 2009-07-27 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John C. Polkinghorne, internationally renowned priest-scientist, addresses fundamental questions about how scientific and theological worldviews relate to each other in this, the second volume (originally published in 1988) of his trilogy, which also included Science and Providence and One World. Dr. Polkinghorne illustrates how a scientifically minded person approaches the task of theological inquiry, postulating that there exists a close analogy between theory and experiment in science and belief and understanding in theology. He offers a fresh perspective on such questions as: Are we witnessing today a revival a natural theology—the search for God through the exercise of reason and the study of nature? How do the insights of modern physics into the interlacing of order and disorder relate to the Christian doctrine of Creation? What is the relationship between mind and matter? Polkinghorne states that the "remarkable insights that science affords us into the intelligible workings of the world cry out for an explanation more profound than that which it itself can provide. Religion, if it is to take seriously its claim that the world is the creation of God, must be humble enough to learn from science what that world is actually like.The dialogue between them can only be mutually enriching."
