God and the Universe

FROM DENIAL TO BELIEF IN GOD Almost a century has been spent trying to discover a ‘Theory of Everything,’ or, more appropriately, an ‘Explanation of Everything,’ but scientists could not succeed. This is because the correct explanation of the phenomena of the universe can be obtained only if one accepts the existence of God, the Creator and Sustainer of the universe. No mathematical formula can ever become the answer to this question. Searching for the answer to this question in mathematical formulae is like trying to quench one’s thirst by eating rubber instead of drinking water. FROM UNSEEN WORLD TO UNSEEN GOD Science has discovered electrons, neutrons, and protons, but it is also a fact that until now, no scientist has seen electrons, neutrons, and protons with their own eyes or through a microscope. Then why do scientists believe in their existence? The scientists would reply that although they cannot see these particles, they can see their effects—for example, the heat of an electron, a falling apple, in the case of gravity, and a photo film, in the case of X-rays. We believe in the existence of all these things, not by direct observation but by their effects, or, in other words, by indirect knowledge or the inferential argument. We can believe in the existence of things that we can observe directly, as well as those that we infer by their effects indirectly. From a scientific point of
