Can science rule out God?
To properly understand the history of the universe and humanity, one can turn to any of the three religions discussed herein, but gaining insights into the theories of scientists like Charles Darwin, Albert Einstein, and Stephen Hawking is a much better idea. Komhoff takes the interested layman past God and through a series of eminent scientists on a timeless journey spanning fourteen billion years, from the Big Bang to the present day. In understandable steps, the author guides the reader through the various fields and introduces them to theories, contradictions, philosophers, black holes, evolution, logic, relativity, God proofs, and the Big Bang singularity. The appendices add, in understandable language, in-depth introductions to the fascinating theories the author discusses. According to Komhoff, we live in the Cosmos of Coincidence. This sheds a completely new light on the Big Questions: What is man? Where do we come from? What is our place in the cosmos? What is the meaning of our existence? Where are we going? And, last but not least, is there a God?
With present-day knowledge, his final conclusion is: yes, science can rule out God as the creator of man and the universe, but no, science cannot rule out the existence or non-existence of God.
