The Heaven at the End of Science: An Argument for a New Worldview of Hope
The Heaven at the End of Science takes a fresh and bold look at the debate between science and religion and attempts to go farther than any other book to unite them. Instead of trying to show that religion is wrong because science is better at finding truth, or that science must be wrong because it leaves out God, this book shows that if we eliminate the unnecessary assumptions of our modern, materialistic worldview, we wind up finding a way to connect the logical rigor of science with the hopes and dreams of religion.
The book argues that the worldview of the Big Bang and Darwinian evolution is nearing its tipping point, as the matter-first approach of materialism has failed to offer a convincing explanation for the world we live in. Science's cosmological theories, such as the inflationary Big Bang, the multiverse, and superstring theory, are becoming increasingly speculative and detached from the world we experience. Why not start over with a new pad of paper and, instead of trying to explain the world as a great machine operating independently of the mind, try to explain it as a great dream flowing from one mind that some call God? It turns out that this simple, though perhaps radical, change in perspective explains more than the theories of science and leads to a stunningly positive world outlook, a place at the end of science that we may someday call heaven.
