God & the God Particle w/ Fr. Andrew Pinsent
Manage episode 395168598 series 3403342
Join us in this thought-provoking podcast episode as we delve deep into the fascinating world of particle physics and theology. Our guest, Dr. Andrew Pinsent, a renowned physicist and theologian, takes us on a journey to understand the enigmatic "God Particle" and its profound significance. We'll explore what the God Particle really is, why it matters to our understanding of the universe, and the intriguing theological implications it holds.
The God Particle, scientifically known as the Higgs boson, was discovered at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, in 2012. Dr. Pinsent will unravel the mysteries surrounding this elusive particle, explaining how it plays a pivotal role in our understanding of the fundamental building blocks of the cosmos.
But the conversation doesn't stop at the scientific level. We'll also delve into the theological aspects of this discovery. How does the existence of the God Particle relate to questions about the nature of the universe and the divine? Dr. Pinsent will share insights into the harmony between science and faith, exploring how the study of the universe can deepen our understanding of spirituality.
Furthermore, we'll address some of the concerns and misconceptions surrounding CERN and particle smashing. Is there any truth to the idea that particle collisions could create black holes or open other dimensions? And what about the notion of "losing demons"? Dr. Pinsent will provide a clear and scientific perspective on these claims, dispelling myths and separating fact from fiction.
