"Metaphors for God's Time in Science and Religion asks how metaphors like the Big Bang work in astrophysical cosmology and how they differ from religious stories about the origins of the universe. Metaphors energize and develop the politics of evolutionary biology. Happel explores how the 'networks,' the 'theaters' of brain activity, compare with the religious language of the soul, and everything in between. How does God interact with rocks, plants, trees, and flowers? Is it different from the way that God works with human beings? Is it 'survival of the fittest' or altruism that marks human history? Does God guide the universe? What difference does it make to God that time and space exist?"--BOOK JACKET.
