Sir John Polkinghorne: Can a Scientist Pray?
Manage episode 257701088 series 2504016
British theoretical physicist Sir John Polkinghorne examines how scientific discoveries of the 20th century, particularly quantum theory and chaos theory, disrupted the “clockwork universe” view of the world that prevailed for about 200 years after Newton. Polkinghorne explores how a world that does not behave in a reliable way, that is described not deterministically but rather probabilistically, might comport better with the notion of prayer than the mechanical view of the world that preceded it. This event took place in New York City in 2004.
The post Sir John Polkinghorne: Can a Scientist Pray? first appeared on Socrates in the City.
