Tomorrow's God e-bog

What is the relationship between the Hebrew Bible and modern science? To answer this question, Robert Goldman invites the reader on a carefully guided intellectual journey spanning centuries of theological, philosophical, and scientific thought, before arriving at his provocative conclusion. He begins with the Hebrew Bible, examining the ancient concepts of "e;Olam"e; and "e;Yahweh,"e; whose meanings are often lost in translation. Using these concepts as a lens, he explores Spinoza's "e;heretical"e; (at the time) theological views, probes Einstein's theory of space-time, and confronts formidable questions about human capacity for evil through the writings of Elie Wiesel and Etty Hillesum. Using simple, accessible language, Goldman ties together these diverse perspectives--as well as those of Plato, Maimonides, Godel, and others--and interweaves them with his own insights. Ultimately, he crafts a hopeful vision of a humankind and a God who are evolving toward one another, fueled by good actions, broader consciousness, and deeper human connection.
