Nice comment you have here.Stephanie Elizabeth wrote: ↑03 Mar 2021, 10:27 Perhaps the author has no hidden agenda, and the point of writing this book is to bridge the gap between religion and science. Some so many people turn a blind eye to science and embrace religion. Conversely, there are people whose sole belief system is fact-based, and maybe the author wants readers to open their minds to the possibility of both.

I don't think the author wants to prove that All religious scriptures are in agreement with scientific findings. As a Jew, he solely focuses on Jewish books and tries to show -in most of the book- that the concept of cosmic cycles, extensively presented in the Kabbalah is true.Sushan Ekanayake wrote: ↑02 Mar 2021, 01:29
So, I believe that, whatever the author has said, his true intention has been to prove that the bible and other religious scriptures are scientifically true and acceptable. Do you agree with me? Or do you think that the author has revealed his(their) true intentions? If so, is it a practical approach to predict the future solely on religious prophecies?

This is absolutely true. The author made an effort to balance the two viewpoints. Scientific and religious ideas need not necessarily contradict with one another. They may dwell together. The bible and science are saying are not polar opposites.Stephanie Elizabeth wrote: ↑03 Mar 2021, 10:27 Perhaps the author has no hidden agenda, and the point of writing this book is to bridge the gap between religion and science.

That's what I think too. Holding on to science doe not mean you should leave religion. I believe that in today's world, faith is far less valued and people are much more reliant on scientific facts and findings. However, it should be recognized that every matter in this world has a scientific explanation when examined closely, including those that are depicted in religion.shravsi wrote: ↑02 Apr 2021, 04:53 I think he just enjoys being a scientist who immensely trusts religion. Many religious-minded people have made valuable scientific discoveries. So believing in faith doesn't make someone untrustworthy. The people who dismiss religion for its obscure beliefs- I think the author is trying to encourage these people that knowledge is vast. You can't judge anything based on one or two books. He is also providing a way out for people who want to maintain their religiosity but also trust scientific studies.
