Science and Religion have always worked together. As we bask in the glory of the success of India’s moon mission Chandrayaan-3, the Catholic Church in India has a good reason to rejoice. Long before, we could imagine our moon missions, a Catholic Church in Kerala gave its land on which one of its important Church building and adjacent bishop...
Non-Philosophical Approach to Science and Religion Dialogue
There is a non-philosophical approach to Philosophy. Reading Francois Laurelle has challenged us to think beyond our fidelity to One. He develops non-philosophy. It is not ordered by one standard way of doing philosophy. We are only used to the philosophy of logos. His approach challenges us to embrace all ways of philosophizing. These other ways of philosophizing he...
Towards the Being of Science and Religion Dialogue
To enter the hermeneutics of Science and Religion dialogue, we may have to embrace the destruction of the Western Metaphysics of Martin Heidegger. We have the challenge to manifest the Being in the dialogue of Science and Religion. To do this, we have to accept what Heidegger calls ontological difference. Between Being and beings. This means we have to...
Unbound Church of Quantum Physics
The idea of an unbound Christ may lead to another allied idea of an unbound Church. The unbound Church is a Church freed from its traditional closed inward looking thinking as well it’s essential frontal thinking. Unbound church thinks dorsal, frontal as well as inward. To come to unbound Church, we need a quantum leap thinking. This quantum leap...
Quantum God
Is there a quantum God? If the primary act of God is the creation of the universe than we should be able to trace the image of/ signature of God in his creation. When we try to unearth an understanding of God from quantum physics, we have a possibility of manifesting God’s action in the universe. Quantum physics with...
Holy Trinity in the Light of Quantum Physics
The is a lot of commonality between quantum physics and Christian belief in the Holy Trinity. Both present before us the logic of one and many. It may be interesting to dwell in these common spaces. It might lead us to understand Holy Trinity in a deeper way. Christians arrived at their belief in the Holy Trinity through debate,...
Schroedinger’s Christ
Can quantum physics bring light into our understanding of Christology? Is there a Schroedinger’s Christ? Maybe the dogma of Chalcedon can be profoundly understood in the power of quantum physics. Maybe the new physics is offering a new language to communicate faith to humans of our time. Maybe quantum physics is one among many signs of our times that...
The Language that God Talks
At least right from the time of Pythagoras in the West, we can see that there is a close connection between God and mathematics. In India, we may have discerned this link much earlier as mathematics grew in the arms of Vedic religion and helped it to calculate auspicious time and the shapes and sizes of the agni kandas...
Quantum Physics and the Eucharist
With relativity and quantum physics, the drive towards mastery died to the mystery in science in the 20th century. Although scientists like Albert Einstein and his followers tried to shun aside the mystery dimension in Science, particularly in quantum physics, they had to submit to the mystery of reality that refuses to come under the fuller mastery of humanity....
Quantum Physics and Christian Theology
Quantum Physics and theology have come together. It once again demonstrates that science and theology are friends and not foes. They complement each other rather than contrast each other. This coming together of both science and theology can bring us closer to the truth or to verisimilitude as Karl Popper would teach us. Of course, the two disciples are...
