Theology and the New Physics [5] | Many Worlds
New Physics [1] | New Physics [2] | New Physics [3] | New Physics [4] The idea that an external observer was required to ‘collapse the wavefunction’ of reality obviously didn’t sit well with physics, as it seemed to require a ‘big’ external observer to make the universe real. Physicists didn’t like that one bit,…

Theology and the New Physics [4] – Reality is a Collapsed Wavefunction
New Physics [1] | New Phyiscs [2] | New Physics [3] In the previous post I extended the argument that it is impossible for a person in a n-dimensional universe to observe with any proper perspective an (n+k)-dimensional universe, to propose that the reverse is also true: an observer in a higher dimensional space can…

Theology and the New Physics [3] | Engaging The Maze
New Physics [1] | New Physics [2] In the previous two posts I’ve been trying to explore some of the implications that the ‘new physics’ might have on our theology. It is worth emphasising that I strongly believe that the new physics must have an impact on our theology. If it, or indeed any new…

Theology and the New Physics [2] | Dimensions
While quantum theory does nothing towards a proof of God, it does highlight the problem of the extent of our ability to know our own world perfectly. There will always be uncertainty, and this is a humbling thought for scientists and theologians. Another interesting aspect of the new physics is the problem of multidimensionality. Theorists…
