I belive in God........
>> Thursday, April 05, 2007
I did not always embrace these perspectives. As a graduate student in Electronics and Communication, I was an atheist, finding no reason to postulate the existence of any truths outside of mathematics, physics and chemistry.
But then I encountered life and death issues at the bedsides of some patients. Challenged by one of those patients, who asked "What do you believe?", I began searching for answers. I had to admit that the science I loved so much was powerless to answer questions such as "What is the meaning of life?" "Why am I here?" "Why does mathematics work, anyway?" "If the universe had a beginning, who created it?" "Why are the physical constants in the universe so finely tuned to allow the possibility of complex life forms?" "Why do humans have a moral sense?" "What happens after we die?"
