| Significant statements by
some of the 20th Century's most famous non Christian scientists |
Regarding the complex and seemingly impossible
equilibrium of nuclear reactions taking place in red giants,
one of the 20th Centuries most recognized astrophysicists, Fred
Hoyle, stated:
"A commonsense interpretation of the facts suggests that
a super intellect has monkeyed with physics, as well as chemistry
and biology, and that there are no blind forces worth speaking
about in nature. The numbers one calculates from the facts seem
to me so overwhelming as to put this conclusion almost beyond
question."
Although Fred Hoyle was an atheist, he said that some things
he had studied could not have possibly happened by chance.
On this same topic astrophysicist George Greensteen wrote: "There
are three quite separate structures in this story-helium, beryllium,
and carbon-and two quite separate resonances. It is hard to
see why these nuclei should work together so smoothly…Other
nuclear reactions do not proceed by such a remarkable chain
of lucky breaks…It is like discovering deep and complex
resonances between a car, a bicycle, and a truck. Why
should such disparate structures mesh together so perfectly?
Upon this our existence, and that of every life form in the
universe, depends." The Symbiotic Universe, p. 43-44
"By the word of the
LORD were the heavens made; and all the host of them by the
breath of his mouth." "Thou openest thine hand, and
satisfiest the desire of every living thing."
Psalm
33:6, 145:16
“As we survey all the evidence, the thought insistently
arises that some supernatural agency - or, rather, Agency -
must be involved. Is it possible that suddenly, without intending
to, we have stumbled upon scientific proof of the existence
of a Supreme Being? Was it God who stepped in and so providentially
crafted the cosmos for our benefit?” -George Greenstein

"The scientist is possessed by the sense of universal causation...His
religious feeling takes the form of rapturous amazement at the
harmony of natural law, which reveals the intelligence of such
superiority that, compared with it, systematic thinking and
acting of human beings is an utterly insignificant reflection.
- Albert Einstein (theoretical physicist)
"The heavens declare the glory of God; and the
firmament sheweth his handywork. Day unto day uttereth speech,
and night unto night sheweth knowledge. There is no speech nor
language, where their voice is not heard."
Psalm
19:1-3
"The laws of science, as we know them at the present,
contain many fundamental
numbers, like the size of the electron charge of the electron
and the ratio of the masses
of the proton to the electron... The remarkable fact is that
the values of these numbers
seem to have been very finely adjusted to make possible the
development for life."
- Stephen Hawking
"He telleth the number
of the stars; he calleth them all by their names."
Psalm
147:4
“The more I examine the universe and the details
of its architecture, the more evidence I
find that the universe in some sense must have known we were
coming.” - Freeman Dyson (physicist) “The
exquisite order displayed by our scientific understanding of
the physical world calls
for the divine.” - Vera Kistiakowsky (physicist)
"For the scientist who has lived his dream by faith
in the power of reason, the story ends like a bad dream. He
has scaled the mountains of ignorance; he is about to conquer
the highest peak; as he pulls himself over the final rock, he
is greeted by a band of theologians who have been sitting there
for centuries." - Robert
Jastrow (astronomer and physicist)
"I understand more than the ancients, because I keep
thy precepts."
Psalm 119:100 |
"For the invisible things of him
from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood
by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead;
so that they are without excuse:"
Romans
1:20 |
