TI - Quantum physics and theology: an unexpected kinship SN - 9780300121155 AV - BL265.P4 P58 2007 PY - 2007/// CY - New Haven, London PB - Yale University Press KW - Religion and science KW - Quantum theory KW - Theology N1 - Includes bibliographical references and index; The search for truth -- Comparative heuristics -- Lessons from history -- Conceptual exploration -- Cousins N2 - The author identifies and explores key similarities in quantum physics and Christology. Among the many parallels he identifies are patterns of historical development in quantum physics and in Christology; wrestling with perplexities such as quantum interpretation and the problem of evil; and the drive for an overarching view in the Grand Unified Theories of physics and in Trinitarian theology. Both theology and science are propelled by a desire to understand the world through experienced reality, and Polkinghorne explains that their viewpoints are by no means mutually exclusive. --from publisher description UR - http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/toc/ecip0618/2006024231.html UR - http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0733/2006024231-b.html UR - http://catdir.loc.gov/catdir/enhancements/fy0733/2006024231-d.html ER -
