When science reaches the end, it is discovered that God has been waiting there for thousands of years. This is what the famous scientist Albert Einstein said. We are all very familiar with Einstein. He established a view of the universe, which has been inherited by modern people. Our current understanding of the universe is based on Einstein's cosmology. But it is puzzling that many scientists in the world spend their energy on studying theology. Is the end of science really theology?
The great scientist Newton was born into a Christian family. The West of that era was already dominated by Christianity, so most people believed in Christianity, including Newton. It's just that in his early years, his thinking was more active than ordinary people, and he created many brilliant achievements. In his later years, he devoted himself to theological research, trying to think and find many unknown answers in this world from the perspective of God, which also caused Newton to be shielded. Once in a God's system, it will never come out again. So his later years did little for science.
Another great scientist, Einstein, has also made great achievements in science and is respected by modern people as the greatest scientist in the world. And he also spent a lot of energy on the study of theology. Although Einstein was an atheist and did not believe in Christ, the entire Western world was shrouded in Christianity, and people and everything around him were basically influenced by Christianity. This may be Einstein One of the reasons for wanting to know what God really is.
It is necessary to know that this world is a world constructed by logic and , not a world established by senses, and logic determines facts, not observation determines facts. For example, , Chinese and people like to say that seeing is believing, that what the eyes see is the real thing.In fact, this is a misunderstanding, because the world you are talking about and the world you perceive must be the logical world, not the sensory world. For example, the earth revolves around the sun , but all early humans thought that the sun revolved around the earth. Because the human eye can intuitively see that the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, and the cycle goes back and forth.
The founder of modern astronomy, Copernicus, discovered that using data models to calculate that the sun revolves around the earth is not true at all, but the earth revolves around the sun just coincidentally. Therefore, heliocentric theory is proposed, which means that the sun revolves around the earth is an observed result , and the earth revolves around the sun is a logical fact. Speaking of which, Taotao has to mention a very classic example . This example not only shows people that the world they see is not necessarily real, but also proves that God seems to exist.
This experiment I also mentioned in the previous article. At the beginning of the experiment, I wanted to prove whether the light was particle or wave. At that time, scientists had two camps, particle pie and wave pie. The particle pie believes that because light can travel in a straight line in vacuum , and light can be reflected, this is very similar to the rebound generated by particles hitting a block, so light is a particle. But Poppy believes that when light passes through an medium, , it will see the existence of ghosting, and it is impossible for particles to have this situation. Until 1655, the Italian mathematician Grimati discovered that after passing through a small hole, light would form a diffraction phenomenon like a water wave passing through a small hole. He immediately realized that light is not a particle flow, but a kind of wave in the form of vibration that transmits outward like a water wave. This is the source of the early wave theory, but if light is a wave, there are also many inexplicable The phenomenon.
If light is a wave, why can't it go around obstacles like sound? So the two theories have been clamoring and quarreling for many years. Neither the Grain School nor the Pop School can convince the . But given the existence of Newton, the light particle theory suppressed the light wave theory for a long time. In the scientific research world, the competition between schools is no less than Huashan's sword, and even everyone seems to be the enemy of life and death. It's about scientists' pursuits and beliefs. To convince or defeat them, they have to get real experimental results.
At the beginning of the 19th century, the scientific community finally welcomed this man. He was Thomas Young, a British physical scientist. He performed the famous Young's double slit diffraction experiment. He shone the light beam on two parallel slits, which showed a series of light and dark fringes on the receiving screen, which is a typical interference diffraction phenomenon in waves. So the wave theory of light was inexplicably encouraged. But since light is a wave, what medium does it rely on to propagate in a vacuum? Therefore, the grain pie, who has been studying for many years, is unwilling to admit defeat, and they want to try to emit electrons one by one. It stands to reason that if a single photon is emitted at a time, he can only pass through one of the two parallel cracks. It's like shooting a bullet with a gun, and it can only pass through one of the holes. The result should also be to display two bright lines on the receiving screen without the phenomenon of light and dark diffraction. The results, however, were astounding.
In the beginning, when the number of photons is low, the dots of light on the screen look cluttered. With the accumulation, the zebra stripes gradually appear, that is to say, the diffraction image of the wave appears. This is very unreasonable. In order to find out what is causing this phenomenon. So the scientists decided to use the camera to observe which gap the photons passed through.In the same way, the photons are still emitted in a single burst, but the photons pass through a gap at a time under the camera, which makes the scientists relieved. Fortunately, at least the particle nature of light is not a problem. But before the scientists were relieved, they saw an incredible phenomenon. At this time, the receiving screen somehow turned into two bright bars instead of light and dark stripes. What's going on? All the experimental conditions are the same, except that the camera is added for observation. Why did the experimental results change?
So the scientists moved the camera away, and sure enough, the light and dark stripes reappeared. This has completely subverted scientists' cognition, and the experimental results actually depend on whether there are observations. So they thought about whether I could wait for the photon to pass through the gap and then quickly set up the camera to observe, instead of setting it up in advance, so that he was mentally prepared. However, the result after some operations is that no matter how fast your camera is observing, as long as you observe it, it will be two bright lines. The most incredible thing is that as long as you add the camera at the beginning, no matter how fast you remove the camera at the end, the result is still light and dark stripes. So, we can’t help but wonder, what is the reason for this phenomenon? How does Light know if we are observing him? This question has plagued many scientists for countless years, causing them to rip off a lot of hair.
But through the previous double-slit interference experiment , it is not difficult to see that the logical world and the sensory world are in conflict. Someone once analyzed this experiment, and he thought it might be because people observed it consciously. So light will show different results according to people's wishes.And the reason why the sun rises in the east and sets in the west may also be because the first person who saw the sun wanted it to rise in the east and set in the west, so people who saw the sun rise in the east and set in the west later regarded it as common sense. This is absolutely unchanged. , which also causes the sun to rise in the east and set in the west in the eyes of people. This may seem a bit bizarre, even unbelievable, but there are many people on the Internet who agree with this view, and even think that when consciousness is strong enough, the universe can be changed. Why do they think so?
For example, when man was an ape. People at that time did not have such rich imagination and . He could not imagine that people could fly into the sky, go into the sea, or even create water and fire, and the ancients in the later period could not imagine it, thinking that only gods can do such things. . But when people have this consciousness at a certain stage and think that people can have these, people start to create. So you see, now aviation, diving, running water, and gas have achieved things that people could not have imagined before. This shows that consciousness is indeed a powerful thing. Moreover, there is a consciousness that decides to realize something in advance, and then there is something that can be realized. Therefore, those who think that consciousness determines the universe and change the universe are very likely to be right. If this is the case, those people with rich imagination are more terrifying, because their consciousness is relatively strong, and the universe is likely to change according to his consciousness.
Of course, this is just a joke by Taotao. But on second thought, did scientists such as Newton and Einstein finally choose to believe in theology because of some experiments to see through the nature of the universe? Most people probably think that scientists should believe in science and should be atheists. But the United Nations once did a survey, he used the world-famous Gallup poll to investigate whether the 300 most famous scientists in the past 300 years believe in the existence of God.Except for 38 who could not find out their beliefs, 242 of the other 262 scientists were and believers, accounting for 92.4%. Only 20 people do not believe in gods, accounting for 7.6%. Another survey shows that 93.27% of Nobel Prize winners are believers.
Judging from these data and the performance of scientists, it is impossible to judge whether the end of science is theology or not. But the development of science must be deeply influenced by theology. What do you think about this? Welcome to leave a message below for discussion.
