Hi Santosh, Aristo is probably refering to the popular books "A brief history of time" and "Mind of God". While these in no way can be considered professional scientific publications, both the authors have tried to use concepts from theoretical physics to disprove the theory of a Creator(God). I think this is a promotional gimmick that these authors have used to increase the sales of these already interesting books.
I hope you dont continue to argue with Gilbert. His latest gem of wisdom had me laughing for hours. Gilbert wrote: "The Pure Nonsense is when scientists become authorities on religion, and when religionists become scientists." So in the world according to Gilbert, a scientist can no longer be religious and a religious person can never be a scientist. How can one argue with narrow mindedness and confused gibberish like that? I wish you would give up trying. Regards Sunith Velho Santosh writes: Aristo, What works of Hawking and Davies? In their professional scientific work no mention, reference or allusion of any kind is made to god. Do you count whimsical speculations, metaphorical usage of religious terms of popular appeal, and private religious beliefs expressed by scientists in popular science books and TV shows, as science? I don't, and I know of no practising scientist who does. Cheers, Santosh _______________________________________________ Goanet mailing list [email protected] http://lists.goanet.org/listinfo.cgi/goanet-goanet.org
