Dillard Faries on Religion, Newtonian Physics, and Quantum Mechanics
Near the end of the 19th century and into the 20th century, physics went through a scientific revolution with a shift from the Newtonian paradigm of physics to the weird world of quantum mechanics. This not only affected the way we understand our material (and not-so-material) world, but it had an impact on the philosophical underpinnings of how humans perceive reality, allowing for theology to return to the discourse of science. Dr. Dillard Faries, a professor emeritus of physics at Wheaton College, explains the tensions within Newtonian physics, how quantum mechanics changed our understanding, and his own reflections on topics such as sin, free will, and reality. Many good things on the way this year. Please tell your friends and colleagues about our free educational program. [ READ THE FULL ARTICLE ] Nancy Ellen Abrams on Spirituality & Science
