The photo above is some of the giants of science in modern scientific history, can anyone show evidence which of them converted to theology in their later years?
There was one who went towards so-called theology, Chu Ching-shih, who turned out to be quite a character, but not quite a scientific giant.
While Zhu Qingshi has a certain reputation in academic fields such as molecular local mode vibration research and laser spectroscopy research, he has not won many international awards. He is known more for having worked on some education reforms during his time in charge of SUSTech, but ultimately stepped down in 2014, with some of the reforms he made coming to an untimely end.
We won't comment on how much positive effect his reforms had, but from the time he retired, he converted to Buddhism, talked nonsense about quantum Buddhism, delivered a speech entitled "Physics Steps Into Zen: Karma and Emptiness," talked about the so-called string theory of contemporary physics being the Buddhist view of karma and emptiness, and cried out ? When the scientists have climbed to the top of the mountain with great difficulty, the Buddhist masters have already been waiting here for a long time! The dreamy talk of the Buddha, confusing the public and spreading the poison far and wide.
Once clamored the so-called? The end of science is theology? The rumor that the end of science is theology originated from this. This kind of anti-scientific thinking has influenced a portion of the scientifically illiterate masses and contributed to the prevalence of superstition.This person has degenerated into an authentic ? civil science? Time and space newsletter once analyzed his change has a profound history of Yan Yuan, he was very young by his mother's some superstitious ideas, believe in karma. Although engaged in scientific work for a time suppressed this from the heart of the superstitious surge, but into the old age of the return effect appeared, coupled with career setbacks, resolutely jumped into the superstition of the quagmire.
His words and deeds have been widely criticized by the scientific community, becoming a joke in the scientific community, spurned by the scientific community, in the scientific community he no longer has any market.
The world is a big place. This kind of individual from science metamorphosis degeneration of the example is also there, but also can only use the word absolutely nothing to describe, never? A lot of? and even less? many scientific giants?
Religion is a social phenomenon that has been passed down for thousands of years, and has long influenced human ideology. Today, there are still many scientists who are followers of various religions, which is an objective phenomenon.But it is a fact that this phenomenon is becoming less and less common. And even if there are religious beliefs, it is not the same as believing in God.
In 1914, the famous American psychologist James H. Lubar did a survey of scientists' beliefs, and the result was that 58% of 1,000 American scientists said they did not believe in God, and the number of those who did not believe in God rose to 70% of the 400 more famous scientists; 20 years later, Lubar did the same survey again, and the data obtained was that the number of those who did not believe in God rose to 67% and 85%.
Another such survey was done by the organization in 1998, and the percentage of scientists who believed in God dropped to 7 percent, and almost all prominent scientists did not believe in God.
But the proportion of religious believers is certainly higher than that, which shows that religious belief is not the same as believing in God, but is only a kind of support and comfort.
Almost all of some of the most famous early scientists were religious, but it was their exploratory discoveries and research that dug the graves for the gods to bury them in.Science was supposed to come out of the fight against the religious gods and demons.
Newton, of course, was a devout priest, but it was the discovery of gravity and the creation of classical mechanics that put the lie that God controls everything out of business, gave mankind laws to follow about the world's material movement, and brought mankind from the darkness of groping to the light.
Galileo, Copernicus, and Bruno discovered the laws of the heavens and made the geocentric theory, which had been held up by religion as a classic for thousands of years, go bankrupt, and were thus regarded as deviants who were brutally persecuted by the Inquisition. Galileo was placed under house arrest for life, and Bruno was sentenced to be burned at the stake in the Piazza delle Flore in Rome.
Darwin also came from a religious family, and from a young age his father wanted him to become a priest, but Darwin was a staunch rebel against God, cursing the Bible as a damned doctrine, and his creation of the theory of evolution initiated the scientific process of biological research, sending creationism to its grave.
These scientists blew trumpets and carried palanquins and sent the gods, who had ruled mankind for thousands of years, to the dustbin of history, but they remained a religious people.Newton didn't give up on theology in his life, and there's nothing to be fussed about in his later years studying research theology, nor is there any evidence that it's anything special. Rather, it is well documented that he became more obsessed with alchemy in his later years.
But alchemy was the origin of modern chemistry, and while there was blind ignorance, there was some science in it.
The rumor that Einstein converted to theology in his later years is even more of a crock of shit, and is entirely a rumor created by some people who turned black and white upside down.
More conclusive evidence is that Einstein abandoned his religious beliefs in junior high school, and his letters to friends and family and the accounts he left behind were not without criticism of religious theology.
He said: ? I believe in Spinoza's God, who exists and shows himself in the ordered and harmonious nature of things, and not in the God who is implicated in the destiny and behavior of men.?
This statement means that he believes only in the God who is revealed in the laws, in fact in the laws of nature, and not in a personalized God.
This point is expressed even more clearly and sharply in a letter he wrote to the Jewish philosopher Goggin: ? For me, ? God? the word is nothing more than the expression and product of man's own vulnerability, and the Bible is nothing more than an honorable but still childish collection of primitive legends.?
The letter was auctioned online in 2012 for $3,000,000 and 100 dollars, evidence of what is in plain sight around the world.
This view of Einstein continued throughout his life, and on his deathbed, he gave a strict account in his own will of a funeral with no obituary, no ashes, no grave, no tombstone, and to this day no one knows where his ashes were sprinkled.He was a man who had penetrated this universe, believing that human beings are nothing but an insignificant passer-by in cosmic time and space, and that God is nothing but an illusory product created by the vulnerability of human beings themselves.
Einstein's theories have illuminated mankind for a long time in modern times, and he was a truly great man. It is not only his scientific theories that illuminate us, but also his great personality.
Some people in order to their own evil and ugly purpose, the old take this great personality wantonly slander and trample on, is really the dregs of the road ahead of mankind, will eventually enter the garbage heap of history with the gods.
Thus, the claim that many scientific giants studied theology in their later years is a lie with no basis for ulterior motives.
There is only one reason for these lies, and that is that science has dug the ancestral grave of theology, and the believers who feed on the gods want revenge. After centuries of unsuccessful attempts to discredit these godly apostates, they have tried to present them as re-converts as a way of pulling up a big banner in an attempt to wave the flag for their own resurgence.
And more followers of the clamor of the gullible and uninformed masses of eaters, these rumors and lies can be spread, the most fundamental reason is that the overall scientific literacy of the community is low, and there is a breeding ground for them.
That's it, welcome to discuss.
