DAILY DOSE: Past the Cosmic Machine
Past the Cosmic Machine Tishrei 25, 5769 · October 24, 2008
By Tzvi Freeman
If the cosmos were some giant machine running a procedural program with immaculate precision, G–d’s involvement would be superfluous. But science has long abandoned a mechanical view of the universe. For most of a century, scientists have discussed the basic particles of matter and energy as ideas, without form as we know it.
True, science does not discuss G–d. But it does describe His works. In our times, science has allowed G–d back into the world He envelopes Himself within.
