For centuries, scientists viewed the cosmos as a well-oiled machine, strictly and predictably follow the numerous laws of nature. Then, as scientists entered the era of "quantum physics", they discovered the physical world did what was predicted MOST of the time, but occasionally decided to do something different. This was observed by studying the whimsical nature of light. Does "the machine" have a soul? We've always figured the cosmos has a wicked sense of humor.
Today's Chicago Tribune has an overview of "The New Theology" in which some scientists and theologians are inching closer together.
[once there was a time when scientists, theologians, and artists, all were in awe of creation.]
