God's Undertaker

Has Science Buried God?

by Professor John C Lennox ...

If we are to believe many modern commentators, science has squeezed God into a corner, killed and then buried him with its all-embracing explanations. Atheism, we are told, is the only intellectually tenable position, and any attempt to reintroduce God is likely to impede the progress of science.In this stimulating and thought-provoking book, John Lennox invites us to consider such claims very ...

Morphic Resonance and the Habits of Nature

by Rupert Sheldrake ...

Rupert Sheldrake's theory of morphic resonance challenges the fundamental assumptions of modern science. A world-famous biologist, Sheldrake proposes that all self-organizing systems, from crystals to human societies, inherit a collective memory that influences their form and behaviour. Rather than being ruled by fixed laws, nature is essentially habitual. All human beings draw upon a collective ... Read more

A Proposal in Natural Philosophy

by Roberto Mangabeira Unger, Lee Smolin ...
