If God were real, than shouldn't he be able to be explained in the same way as relativity or quantum physics?

Question

Think about it.

The cosmos is all that ever was, is or will be.

If God exists, then that includes God.

The science of physics sets out to explain the nature of existence. Eventually, all that exists should be able to be discribed by physics.

If there is life after death, then does that not fall into the definition of the cosmos?

Answer 1

I told you Christians can't give you a straight answer... look at their responses!!

Answer 2

Science can't explain everything. Like, for the Big Boom - where did all that matter come from to begin with? When did the Universe come into being?

I was also thinking about this as I sat in my science class the other day. How did the laws of physics and chemistry come into being? Were they naturally like that or did someone decide them for us? Logic says that if you squish things together, they'll eventually merge (like fushion?), but that's just because those are the laws we've observed. What if the law said that you can't squish stuff together because everything is repelled by each other. I mean, who/what decided that matter would act the way it does?

What about human emotions or the soul? You could say that it's just a bunch of chemical reactions and electric pulses through nerves, but doesn't it seem like more than that? Where does human curiosity come from? If we're made of the same things and almost in the same exact way as chimpanzees, pigs, even rats - why are we so much more complex? How can just a bunch of atoms (mostly carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen) form beings that are capable of learning?

There are just some things that science really can't explain because it takes a level of thinking beyond just facts. Perhaps thats the evidence that a higher power exists - that there is something that science can never explain.

Answer 3

Have you ever thought about the TRUTH of the Carl Sagan BELIEF statement that the cosmos is all there is?

God by definition is Spirit and Creator of the universe (cosmos), so how can He be a part of it? Your logic does not compute here.

Science can only deal with the material universe. God is Spirit, so how can you use what is limited to the physical world to explain the spiritual? Your methodology is out of scope.

When we talk about life after death we are no longer dealing with the physical realm. Thus it is also out of scope of science and not to be confused with the cosmos.

Answer 4

God is true God and of a living spirit. He is not human like what we are who were created by him(G0d)

It is not God who will talk and teach you on the science of physics or any thing which is science. You your self could talk and tell somebody else about the knowledge of science of things but without God nobody could not attain to that conclusion.It is God who is giving you those intellect which you have. Without God, you will be nothing but a dust.

Why do you say that it will not fall on the definition of the cosmos, Cosmos means the whole universe, now what is the connection on the life after death?

In life after death, it means man be resurrected when judgment will come. He will be judge whether he will go to heaven to have eternal life with God or go to hell for eternal life with Satan to suffer the heat of lake of fire.

Answer 5

The book "Self Aware Universe" explains God in terms of quantum physics. Lots of other people besides that author who are on the cutting edge of quantum physics believe that the universe is resolved into a single unified field which might be described as super-consciousness or God. Other quantum physicists are more materialistic but the point is that there are those who do describe God in terms of quantum physics models and some of those who do so are respected scientific thinkers.

Answer 6

The SELF or Atma or God or I am constitute one principle only. From the SELF alone, the cosmos originated along with its inhabitants, i.e., both living and non living including matter. Only the creation is subject to the laws of physics or science and not the creator. Till now no body is able to give a satisfactory explanation to the Eternal Self and its Existence, Knowledge and Bliss. It is beyond the mind and intellect and beyond any computer concepts.

Answer 7

Your second statement can not be fact because the future will always remain uncertain & at the hands of those of the present.

Logically, The creator of anything would put their own energies into their artwork, but rarely are they physically inclusive in the resulting piece.

Science/Physics do set out in search of the five senses of everything, however, they are fast learning that 5 is not all there is....and also,there was a time when 5 was more than they had the day before...ergo, answer to the original ? See?

Answer 8

properly easily as an atheist i could could say purely a God yet gods do no longer look to exist so the answer isn't any one! Even Einstein couldn't clarify quantum physics yet he could tell it existed yet no longer 'clarify' it. the different large physicist Richard Feynman stated: 'in case you imagine you already understand quantum physics you do not comprehend quantum physics! (And he KNEW Einstein!)

Answer 9

I'd have to say that general relativity and quantum mechanics aren't the best examples of scientific mastery of the physical universe. Very grand theories, but neither of them has been conclusively proven in their entirety, and they contradict one another.

That being said, if God is the creator of the universe, He is certainly not bound by it's physical limitations. Too often, people who seek to prove that God does not exist will try to apply human limitations to His power. For example...."How could the universe have possibly been created in 6 days?" I'm pretty sure that I couldn't do it, but I'm certainly not going to say that God couldn't do it. Much like creating a video game....the characters in the game are bound by the rules, but as the creator I just happen to know the cheat codes which gives me unlimited power :)

Answer 10

I dont believe science can explain that which occured before the universe, or anything that is outside the universe. Perhaps I don't have a "traditional" view of God, but I believe relativity, quantum physics and even evolution can help us understand more about our creator.

Answer 11

Someday science may (if the earth survives long enough) come to understand God's role in the creation. In the meantime, our science isn't even remotely capable or qualified. God is so far ahead of science that it would be like Einstein trying to explain the theory of relativity to an amoeba. Good luck.
