Join an ordained scientist and ex-parish vicar in his enlightening book – 'Big Bang, Big God' – as he argues the existence of God can be proved through a scientific explanation for the existence of our universe.
Dr. Rodney Holder, the Course Director for the Faraday Institute for Science and Religion, will take you through the most up-to-date evidence found by modern cosmology that point towards a Creator:
- The Big Bang, and how the universe has evolved
- The laws of nature that has nurtured and provided for intelligent life
- The speculated existence of a multiverse, a vast maybe infinite collection of universes, which could explain why our universe is unique.
Following the current scientific trend, Dr. Rodney Holder in his fascinating book, 'Big Bang, Big God', wrestles with the New Atheist's who insist our universe and existence are down to chance. His conclusions point towards a universe so astonishing, so complex, and so specifically designed for life, that it was 'fine-tuned' by a Creator God.
About the Author
Dr. Rodney Holder is the Course Director for the Faraday Institute for Science and Religion. Prior to that he worked as a parish vicar. As an ordained scientist, he has written widely on cosmology, natural theology, creation, evolution and quantum theory. He has lectured on science, and is an elected member of the International Society for Science and Religion, Christians in Science, the Society of Ordained Scientists, and the Center for Theology and the Natural Sciences, Science and Religion forum.
In Big Bang, Big God, Rodney Holder argues that only the existence of God can provide an adequate explanation for the existence of the universe, and that design by God provides the best and most rational explanation for its beginning state and the astonishing precision of nature’s physical constants – its so called ‘fine-tuning’. These features point to a Creator.
To explain the present state of the universe, the best current scientific theories require that this fine-tuning must be extremely precise. Dr. Holder examines the evidence that the discoveries of modern cosmology provide for a Creator: How did the universe begin and how has it evolved? Why are the laws of nature so ‘fine-tuned’ as to produce a universe with intelligent creatures in it such as mankind? Can the existence of a multiverse, a vast or infinite collection of universes, explain the specialness of this universe?
Big Bang, Big God is an important and luminous book that will find a place with readers curious about the origins of our world.
