The science of God

Convergence of Scientific and Biblical Wisdom
From Galileo to the Scopes trial, to the current arguments about "creationism", harsh and seemingly irreconcilable conflicts have arisen between believers in science and people of faith. Yet beneath the furor, argues Gerald Schroeder, science has quietly been converging with some essential biblical truths. By comparing chapter and verse of the Bible with the science of the Cambrian Explosion, or a biogenesis, Schroeder discovers a stunning overlap. Through all the key topics that have divided science and religion -- the origins of the universe and of life on Earth, the meaning of free will and miracles -- Schroeder demonstrates an increasing confluence between biblical teachings and the findings of biochemists, astrophysicists, paleontologists, and quantum physicists. It is time to render unto Einstein what is Einstein´s, says Schroeder, and unto God what is God´s -- with no loss of authority to either one.
