God and the Big Bang, 2nd Edition

Discovering Harmony Between Science and Spirituality

De: Daniel C. Matt

Narrado por: Barry Abrams

God is not somewhere else, hidden from us; God is right here, hidden from us.

"We are part of something greater: a vast web of existence constantly expanding and evolving. When we gaze at the nighttime sky, we can ponder that we are made of elements forged within stars, out of particles born in the big bang.... Beyond any star or galaxy we will ever identify lies the horizon of spacetime, 14 billion light years away. But neither God nor the big bang is that far away. The big bang didn't happen somewhere out there, outside of us. Rather, we began inside the big bang; we now embody its primordial energy. The big bang has never stopped." - from Chapter 11

To discover the presence of God throughout the cosmos and in our everyday lives, Daniel C. Matt draws on both science and theology, both fact and belief, and both cosmology and Jewish mysticism, taking us on a deeply personal, thoughtful, and inspiring journey. This update of the award-winning first edition gives us a fresh look at the growing topic of science and spirituality, helps us find our place in the universe, and reveals to us how the universe is reflected in our very being.

An inclusive and stimulating look at an ancient issue

This is a wonderful, generous and intellectually stimulating consideration of synthesis and incorporates the evolution of science into a prompt to evolve understanding of spirituality.

Beautiful

A beautiful book that brings God from the Big Bang to the present through the lens of Judaism. But I’d recommend it for everyone.

Is this Kabbalah or SJW Gender Studies?

There is some good info in here in between his diatribes about 3rd Wave Feminism and the unequivocal rejection of any Torah and Biblical prohibitions against same sex marriage. If you want Biblical Revisonism based on whichever of the 53 genders the author identifies as, this is the book for you.

Very Informative

This audio book helped me excel in the direction YHVH needed me to. Thank you, Michelle Piatt

Brilliant

Daniel Matt brilliantly joins science and religion as companions in our human journey to understand our place in the material and spiritual world.

Boring

Mostly recites the Old Testament and Torah. Hardly any science at all. Waste of time and money in my opinion.

Revisionist Garbage.

The Big Bang is something I believe can be seen in the Bible. Not directly but it does work well with Creation Theory. What makes this treatise garbage is his loose and irresponsible use of scripture. He literally believe it is okay to change verse to fit his underlying left wing politics. If you think it is okay to change the language and words to fit you politics, then this book is for you. Conversely if you believe the Bible is the actual words of God and not subject to change, this book is not for you. For example, his wokeness lets him change verses to better fit his views on gender. Clearly the Bible is not the sacred word of God, but just some musty old words that he feels can be changed to fit his world views.

Blasphemy!

Nothing more than spiritualism. “Perceiving to be wise they become fools.” There are something’s God has not chosen to reveal to us because He is eternal and we are just mortal. To understand God you would have to be God.
