IS SCIENCE IN PURSUIT OF GOD?

mathematically workable and research continues towards it, together with critiques and challenges against it. Scientists believe them to be working theories rather than established scientific fact. But, these kinds of statements by different scientists reflect an important fact. That is, scientific pursuit has led scientists to a question: if the universe is centrally controlled, then who is the controller? Although there is no scientist who would dare to say there is a living controller and that controller is God, one can still say that present day science has confirmed the idea of God indirectly, albeit not directly. Nature is so comprehensible that it is incomprehensible to believe that there is no supreme power behind nature. Albert Einstein once said that the most incomprehensible fact about nature is that it is comprehensible. This statement from a scientist is not a simple statement. It reflects the dissatisfied mind of a scientist. If we rephrase this statement of Einstein, we can say that nature is so comprehensible that it is incomprehensible to believe that there is no supreme power behind nature. The Secret of Progress A tree stands above the ground, fixing its roots firmly beneath the ground. It grows from beneath, upwards into the air; it does not start at the top and grow downwards. The tree is our teacher, imparting to us the lesson of nature that if we seek to progress outwardly, we must first strengthen ourselves inwardly; we must begin from the base of our own selves before we can hope to build society anew.
