Is there a scientific theory to support belief in god?

Question

Is there at least a little evidence that directly points to the existance of a god? What about any thing that makes it necessary for a higher power to exist?

Answer 1

there are theories of why humans tend to be superstitious or religious (the difference between these two definitions is very vague).
these theories are part of social science.
but of course, there is no physical evidence, or theory, or necessity that supports the existence of any supernatural entity.

Answer 2

According to the history of science(physics) there is no such evidence where science has said or supported belief in God. This fact is based on such true fact that is Death. The science says that Death would occur at a particular place and time. That is the main reason that scientific theory does not support belief in God. I thank to the questioner to ask the interesting question from modern and present point of views.

Answer 3

technological information ought to do no such element. technological information can neither teach nor disprove god, yet as a substitute can purely grant a loss of explanation (for this reason implying a god must be needed for further explanation) or grant an entire explanation (for this reason implying a god does not be mandatory). In the two case, a concept "helping the existence of god" does not be the respond. technological information speaks relating to the actual international. Statements approximately god's existence are statements which at the instant are not relating to the actual international. regardless of if, i think of the spirit of your question is something like "if solid sufficient information became discovered that god existed, could you substitute right into a theist?" if so, my answer is sure.

Answer 4

I've read the following:

Chances that the universe could spontaneously come into existence without the interference of a creator are as much as this:

A monkey is randomly pressing keys on a piano. What are the chances that you'll hear Bach's Two-Part Invention no 11?

Maybe that's why Einstein said this: "My religion consists of a humble admiration of the illimitable superior spirit who reveals himself in the slight details we are able to perceive with our frail and feeble mind."

For me experience has also lead to more certainty:

And then there's NDE. Look at this:

Some scientists theorize that NDEs are produced by brain chemistry. But, Dr. Peter Fenwick, a neuropsychiatrist and the leading authority in Britain concerning NDEs, believes that these theories fall far short of the facts. In the documentary, "Into the Unknown: Strange But True," Dr. Fenwick describes the state of the brain during a NDE:
"The brain isn't functioning. It's not there. It's destroyed. It's abnormal. But, yet, it can produce these very clear experiences ... an unconscious state is when the brain ceases to function. For example, if you faint, you fall to the floor, you don't know what's happening and the brain isn't working. The memory systems are particularly sensitive to unconsciousness. So, you won't remember anything. But, yet, after one of these experiences [a NDE], you come out with clear, lucid memories ... This is a real puzzle for science. I have not yet seen any good scientific explanation which can explain that fact."

Sorry, can't remember where I found it!

Answer 5

It depends on what a person's definition of God is.
If God is the ultimate reality, then maybe that fact that science is struggling to grasp that reality everyday is proof.
If God created life, then maybe by default science has proved His existence by its inability to create life.
If God is love, then although science has defined some of the brain activity that occur when people are in love, but they can not create love. Maybe by default that is proof.
I do not see how science could ever prove the existence of God except by its inability to prove.

Answer 6

There is zero evidence,zero.The totality of the religious theory is to try to poke holes in the scientific theory.They have no alternate theory,other than,I don't want to believe in TOE so there"Not much of a theory

Answer 7

The belief in God is based purely on blind faith. For most Christians, no proof is necessary, it's just an automatic thing. I am not saying this is right or wrong. A person's beliefs are a very personal thing and shouldn't be subjected to ridicule. You are not doing that, you question is a very good one, but too hard to come up with a concrete answer.

Answer 8

not yet will be soon good luck although regardless of popular opinion the majority of the scientific community does believe in a greater being. its only people fooled by the distraction continually support evolution, even though there is not a single shred of evidence to support it.

Answer 9

There is no evidence that supports the existance of a God or gods.

However, there are theories as to why mankind would invent the idea of a higher power.

Answer 10

Modern 'science' by definition rejects all supernatural explanations. They have a built in bias against the existence of God and do not allow even the possibility.
