     a new paradigm. certainly more cheerful and uplifting than the old scientific materialism. This isn't really new though, see Plato and Bishop Berkeley

     If science can't answer these questions then at least the answer is not a foregone conclusion.

    Superholographic Model of the Universe
    jimbo1000
    by jimbo1000  10-4-2008   
     An extraordinary article. The idea seems to hark back to Leibniz's monads which always seemed very strange but has followers in the philosophy world. The discoveries of science seem to be getting more counter-intuitive as time goes by

     Paul Davies is an excellent populariser of science. The 'self-made universe' is a new concept to me. I must buy the book.

    Inspiring writer and philosopher

     I first read Barrett in 1990. Irrational Man is my favourite book. I read and re-read it. Death of the Soul reinforces my own views that science cannot answer all questions. I like him as a person as was surprised to read that 'he moved to the right' because it is not apparent in his writing.

    by jimbo1000  4-14-2008    5
     I have only clipped a very short piece but this article goes deeply into the subject. I find my religion needs scientific confirmation or at least is basically rational

    The Language of God

      Among Collins’s most controversial beliefs is that of “theistic evolution”, which claims natural selection is the tool that God chose to create man. In his version of the theory, he argues that man will not evolve further. “Scientifically, the forces of evolution by natural selection have been profoundly affected for humankind by the changes in culture and environment and the expansion of the human species to 6 billion members. So what you see is pretty much what you get.” “If one is willing to accept the existence of God or some supernatural force outside nature then it is not a logical problem to admit that, occasionally, a supernatural force might stage an invasion,” he says.
