someone with impeccable intellectual and scientific credentials who has written quite extensively on faith, science and God is Polkinghorne...many of the ideas that i have expressed/appropriated are from him...
Polkinghorne admits that the Problem of Existence of Evil is one of the most serious intellectual objection to the existence of God...a matter that he tries to get around by invoking the concept of freewill....
reading even the wiki entry on the man can be quite revealing if one wants to get a handle on what folks on the other side of the debate think...Polkinhorne is not your run of the mill creationist..in fact he has locked horns with quite a few zealots from the creationist camp and feel that such extreme advocates do more harm than good to this cause.....
and yes Psychotropic..music is where we can happily meet after all...science makes its recording and reproduction possible while it must be God who has given us that faculty to be so rapturous about it....man(or at least some of them) sadly i must say, has unfortunately put it out of reach of many ordinary mortals by rampant over pricing..but that i guess has been dealt with in another thread......
