Our problem with God, according to physicist Gerald L, Schroeder, is that we're trying to force him to stand still. According to this MIT-trained scientist, the ruling deity of the cosmos is a living, changing God. Dr. Schroeder uses biblical interpretation and scientific analysis to argue that, like us, God assimilates new information, experiences regret, and wants us to argue with him and gradually become his partner in creation. Schroeder's unique view represents a radical paradigm shift in the ongoing debates between science and religion.
