Why Science Does Not Disprove God

Amir D. Aczel, a science writer and mathematician, examines claims by prominent scientists and thinkers—including Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens, and Lawrence Krauss—that modern scientific breakthroughs have disproven God's existence. Aczel argues that science has not provided definitive proof against God and that faith and empirical science are not mutually exclusive. Aczel analyzes the theories and findings of Albert Einstein, Roger Penrose, Alan Guth, and Charles Darwin, demonstrating that their major breakthroughs leave open the possibility of a Creator. He discusses quantum theory, the anthropic principle, the fine-tuning of fundamental particles, antimatter, and parallel universe theory, arguing that none of these disprove God's existence. The book addresses the New Atheists' specific contentions: that the universe emerged from nothing, that religion is harmful, and that evolution fully explains life's complexity.
