The net impact of the scientific
proof offered by Michael A Corey's The
God Hypothesis can be likened to the hypothetical
discovery of God's very own being by the Hubble Telescope.
If
this were to ever actually happen, it would clearly be the
single most newsworthy item ever presented by the media!
But The God Hypothesis does
essentially the same thing, since it makes use of the latest
scientific instrumentation (including the Hubble Telescope)
to provide direct, incontrovertible evidence of a "Supercalculating
Intellect" at work in the universe.
The pioneering cosmologist
George Smoot echoed this very same sentiment when he discovered
the cosmic "ripples" that essentially proved the
modern Big Bang theory. "To those who are open to it,"
he said, "It's like looking at God."
And indeed it is! Another
astrophysicist, a former atheist named Sir Fred Hoyle, was
so overwhelmed by the nature of this scientific evidence
that he went so far as to assert the following: "I
do not believe that any scientist who examined the evidence
would fail to draw the conclusion that the laws of nuclear
physics have been deliberately designed... A commonsense
interpretation of the facts suggests that a superintellect
has monkeyed with physics, as well as with chemistry and
biology, and that there are no blind forces worth speaking
about in nature."
This quote is all the more
remarkable because it comes from a former atheist! It really
is "like looking at God" when we use the "Goldilocks
Principle" to examine the latest scientific findings
regarding the universe in which we live. A commonsense interpretation
of the facts INDEED suggests that a superintellect has monkeyed
with physics, as well as with chemistry and biology, and
that there are no blind forces worth speaking about in nature.
The
God Hypothesis offers the first formal scientific
proof for the existence of a Creator, based entirely on
the latest cosmological evidence regarding the Big Bang
and the remainder of cosmic evolution. The net impact of
this scientific proof can be likened to the hypothetical
discovery of God's very own being by the Hubble Telescope.
If this were to ever actually happen, it would clearly be
the single most newsworthy item ever presented by the media!
But The God Hypothesis does
essentially the same thing, since it makes use of the latest
scientific instrumentation (including the Hubble Telescope)
to provide direct, incontrovertible evidence of a "Supercalculating
Intellect" at work in the universe.
The
God Hypothesis uses the figure of Goldilocks to illustrate
the important scientific principle that everything in the
universe is "just right" for the existence of
life. This is no small matter, because this "just right"
status required that all of our world's building blocks
be "fine-tuned" to a superhuman degree of accuracy.
Even atheistic scientists readily admit that this fact provides
overwhelming evidence for the existence of a "Supercalculating
Intellect" at work in the universe.
The
God Hypothesis eliminates the ongoing controversy
between science and religionand hence between creation
and evolutionby showing
how both sides are saying the exact same thing in different
words. This entirely debunks the popular belief that modern
science has somehow
disproven the existence of a Creator.
The
God Hypothesis provides the first scientifically-based
interpretation of what the nature and character of God Himself
is actually like. This is a
direct response to one of the research goals specified by
the billionaire Sir John Templeton. Mr. Templeton wants
to know if science alone has
anything at all to say about the underlying character of
God, and The God Hypothesis answers this question with a
resounding "Yes!" in a chapter entitled "Modern
Science and the Nature of God." The good news is that
the latest scientific findings entirely support the God
of traditional theism, and this, in turn, should greatly
please Jews, Christians, and Moslems alike.
The
God Hypothesis offers the first detailed proposal
for the reinclusion of God within certain aspects of the
modern scientific method. This proposal allows God to be
returned to the scientific domain without any compromise
in the scientific process itself taking place.
