The Entangled God: Divine Relationality and Quantum Physics: Routledge Studies in Religion

Autor Kirk Wegter-McNelly
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 25 aug 2011
In The Entangled God, Kirk Wegter-McNelly addresses the age-old theological question of how God is present to the world by constructing a novel, scientifically informed account of the God–world relation. Drawing on recent scientific and philosophical work in "quantum entanglement," Wegter-McNelly develops the metaphor of "divine entanglement" to ground the relationality and freedom of physical process in the power of God’s relational being. The Entangled God makes a three-fold contribution to contemporary theological and religious discourse. First, it calls attention to the convergence of recent theology around the idea of "relationality." Second, it introduces theological and religious readers to the fascinating story of quantum entanglement. Third, it offers a robust "plerotic" alternative to kenotic accounts of God’s suffering presence in the world. Above all, this book takes us beyond the view of theology and science as adversaries and demonstrates the value of constructively relating these two important areas of intellectual investigation.

Descriere

In The Entangled God Kirk Wegter-McNelly draws on recent scientific and philosophical investigations into the nature of "quantum entanglement" to construct a novel account of the God–world relation. The author creatively interprets the relationality and freedom of physical process from the perspective of trinitarian-relational being.
