"Skepticism about the possibility of proving the existence of God
often relies on data from modern science. In this splendid new book
Father Robert Spitzer explores the implications of the latest
discoveries in big bang cosmology, string theory, quantum physics,
and the ontology of time to craft a series of convincing
philosophical arguments. To paraphrase a popular commercial, this
is not your father's old 'natural theology' textbook -- this is a
gripping and compelling account of the best current arguments for
theism." Francis J. Beckwith
-- Baylor University
"A most original and insightful case for the existence of God. . .
Fr. Spitzer's new proofs pose a serious and compelling challenge to
the unconscious hegemony of naturalism in the worlds of both
philosophy and the sciences." Stephen M. Barr
-- University of Delaware
"Rare is the theologian who keeps abreast of the latest
developments in fundamental physics, and even rarer the one who can
discuss them with the theological and philosophical sophistication
that Fr. Spitzer displays in this book. A challenging and original
work."
