God Challenges from Philosophy and Science



Although she was a devout Christian, the author came to question the traditional view of God as the all-powerful creator. Her book examines philosophical approaches to the question of the divine, and she uses findings in quantum theory and cosmology to suggest that the source of reality is not a supreme being, but lies in the idea that each person is a unique expression of a cosmic mystery. At the same time the author discusses the religious experiences of believers from various traditions, some of which involve a profound life transformation. The conclusion reached in the book is that ultimate truth is found in the inner dimensions of a person's being, and is not dependent on any externally imposed system of thought.
