1. Nobel Laureates Speak Out CLICK TO ADVANCE SLIDES Tommy's Window Slideshow ♫ Turn on your speakers! Are SCIENCE and FAITH in GOD compatible?
2. “ For me, faith begins with the realization that a supreme intelligence brought the universe into being and created man. It is not difficult for me to have this faith, for an orderly, intelligent universe testifies to the greatest statement ever uttered: ‘In the beginning, God…’” ARTHUR COMPTON (1892-1962) AWARDED THE 1927 NOBEL PRIZE IN PHYSICS FOR HIS DISCOVERY OF THE TRANSFER OF ENERGY FROM ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION TO A PARTICLE KNOWN AS THE COMPTON EFFECT.
3. “ If I had no other data than the early chapters of Genesis, some of the Psalms, and other passages of Scripture, I would have arrived at essentially the same picture of the origin of the universe as is indicated by the scientific data.” ARNO PENZIAS (1933- ) AWARDED A 1978 NOBEL PRIZE IN PHYSICS FOR THE DISCOVERY OF COSMIC BACKGROUND RADIATION – PATTERNS THAT PHYSICISTS HAVE INTERPRETED AS SHOWING THAT THE UNIVERSE WAS CREATED FROM NOTHING .
4. “ The principle of divine purpose… stares the biologist in the face wherever he looks. …The probability for such an event as the origin of DNA molecules to have occurred by sheer chance is just too small to be seriously considered.” ERNST BORIS CHAIN (1906 - 1979) AWARDED A 1945 NOBEL PRIZE IN MEDICINE FOR HIS WORK WITH PENICILLIN.
5. “ When confronted with the marvels of life and the universe, one must ask why the only possible answers are religious. … I find a need for God in the universe and in my own life.” ARTHUR L. SCHAWLOW (1921 - ) SHARED THE 1981 NOBEL PRIZE IN PHYSICS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF LASER SPECTROSCOPY.
6. “ Those who say that the study of science makes a man an atheist must be rather silly people.” DEREK BARTON (1918 – 1998) MAX BORN (1882 - 1970) SHARED THE 1954 NOBEL PRIZE IN PHYSICS FOR HIS WORK IN QUANTUM MECHANICS. “ There is no incompatibility between science and religion… Science shows that God exists.” SHARED THE 1969 NOBEL PRIZE IN CHEMISTRY FOR THE CONCEPT AND APPLICATIONS OF CONFORMATION.
7. “ I think only an idiot can be an atheist.” CHRISTIAN B. ANFINSEN (1916 – 1995) SHARED THE 1972 NOBEL PRIZE IN CHEMISTRY FOR HIS WORK IN AMINO-ACID STRUCTURE AND BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY OF THE ENZIME RIBONUCLEASE. ALBERT EINSTEIN (1879 – 1955) “ I only trace the lines that flow from God.” AWARDED THE 1921 NOBEL PRIZE IN PHYSICS FOR HIS WORK IN THEORETICAL PHYSICS, ESPECIALLY THE LAW OF PHOTOELECTRIC EFFECT.
8. “ So many of my colleagues are Christians that I can’t walk across my church’s fellowship hall without tripping over a dozen physicists.” WILLIAM D. PHILLIPS (1948 – ) AWARDED THE 1997 NOBEL PRIZE IN PHYSICS FOR USING LASERS TO PRODUCE TEMPERATURES ONLY A FRACTION OF A DEGREE ABOVE ABSOLUTE ZERO.
9. “ The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of His hands. Day after day, they pour forth speech; night after night they display knowledge.” PSALM 19:1-2
10. “ Since the creation of the world, God’s invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made.” ROMANS 1:20 True science points to God and thereby validates faith in God.
11. A lot of highly respected scientist are believers, often largely due to their own scientific observation of God’s creation. The more they learn, the clearer it becomes to them that our universe didn’t come about by accident or so-called natural processes; there had to be an intelligent Designer, A CREATOR!
12. “ All I have seen teaches me to trust the Creator for all I have not seen” The American poet Ralph Waldo Emerson summed up the science-faith connection when he said:
13. “ whom to know is life eternal” DO YOU KNOW HIM? He has manifested Himself to the world through His Son Jesus! Jesus said: “He that hath seen me hath seen the Father” (John 14:9)
14. If you haven’t yet received Jesus into your life, you can do so now by praying the following: “ Dear Jesus, I want the gifts of eternal life, love, and purpose that You offer. I open my life and heart to You now, and accept You as my Savior. Please forgive me for all the wrongs I’ve done, give me a fresh start, and help me get to know you and Your love. Amen.” PLEASE PASS THIS MESSAGE ON TO OTHERS www.tommyswindow.com For more PowerPoint messages click here:
