“It is sometimes helpful to differentiate between the God of Miracles and the God of Order.”
Origine: Hyperspace (1995), Ch.15 Conclusion<!--pp.330-331-->
Contesto: It is sometimes helpful to differentiate between the God of Miracles and the God of Order. When scientists use the word God, they usually mean the God of Order.... The God of Miracles intervenes in our affairs, performs miracles, destroys wicked cities, smites enemy armies, drowns the Pharaoh's troops, and avenges the pure and noble.... This is not to say that miracles cannot happen, only that they are outside what is commonly called science.
