Nov 21, 2013 - The only real angle I can see on it is some variant of the Grecian Urn theory of science, where aesthetically pleasing math is a guide to discovery, and that's really about the only common pop-physics trope I'm more sick of than the Higgs Boson. Nov 16, 2009 - Quantum physics tells us that objects exist in a suspended physical state until observed, when they collapse to just one outcome — we don't know what happens until we investigate, and our investigation influences that reality. Starting with Religious scholars through the centuries have tossed off all manner of speculations regarding attributes of the physical universe, but people of scientific temperament have known better than to take them seriously. Whether or not certain events may have happened Take some interesting experiments, then leap way ahead to conclusions that serve their metaphysical purposes, but which are not settled science. Does the divine calendar have a divine leap year? Mar 7, 2011 - The quantum revolution was just an amazing event which suddenly made the whole of physics and chemistry more or less clear almost overnight. The God Particle by Leon Lederman clearly explains particle physics and is a lot of fun to read. Take a look at Ian Kerhaw's Fateful Choices, now in paperback, about key decisions that were made during two crucial years in WW II (Britain's decision to stay in the fight, Hitler's decision to attack the Soviet Union, etc.). Using bruno served multiple purposes, including an appeal to non-scientists, mystics and people for whom spirituality is probably very ill-defined but an integral part of their world view, and it connected with this emotional (and less rational side that most humans have). In physics from MIT, has spent the last 35 years investigating the confluence of science and Torah and has a novel, yet compelling, approach. Mar 16, 2014 - In that context, his conception of an infinite universe full of stars and planets was an astonishing leap of insight–but it was still a theological one more than a conceptual one. The same thing could happen in biology. Nail on the head, regarding the major contrast between the endless (but fulfilling) daily routine of data gathering, and the unpredictable leaps by which our intuition offers us insight into interpreting the results of all that data. Feb 8, 2011 - This includes using quantum physics to “clarify” why all sorts of new-age wizardry could work and leaning on genetics to “prove” that you can't do something that might simply involve some mental effort. Jun 25, 2008 - I want to learn something new about some interesting institution, movement, or field of knowledge.
