Theological Doctrines as Scientific Theories? Thinking along with and beyond McGrath
International Journal of Systematic Theology, EarlyView.Abstract McGrath's recent analysis of the parallels between scientific theory formation and the development of theological doctrine in The Nature of Christian Doctrine (OUP, 2024) is insightful and largely compelling, but also raises some questions and areas for further exploration. First, there is a remarkable back‐and‐forth between uses of ‘doctrine’

Gravitational Fluctuations as an Alternative to Inflation III. Numerical Results
Universe, 2020 Power spectra play an important role in the theory of inflation, and their ability to reproduce current observational data to high accuracy is often considered a triumph of inflation, largely because of a lack of credible alternatives.

, 1995 The Ashtekar variables have been use to find a number of exact solutions in quantum gravity and quantum cosmology. We investigate the origin of these solutions in the context of a number of canonical transformations (both complex and real) of the basic ...

Some clarifications on the duration of inflation in loop quantum cosmology [PDF]
, 2017 The prediction of a phase of inflation whose number of e-folds is constrained is an important feature of loop quantum cosmology. This work aims at giving some elementary clarifications on the role of the different hypotheses leading to this conclusion ...

QUANTUM COSMOLOGY WITH ROTATION
International Journal of Modern Physics A, 2005 The rotation of astronomical objects may be of a cosmological origin due to the Universe's specific angular momentum estimates proving to exceed those for spiral galaxies. The problem is expected to be solved in the framework of quantum geometrodynamics.

Modern Theology, EarlyView.Abstract This essay, designed as a complement to opinions expressed by Rowan Williams and some speakers at the conference in his honour, explores features of early Christianity which suggest a positive evaluation of artificial intelligence. Noting that the fear of reducing humans to machines has been joined in the modern age by the fear that machines ...

Quantum deformation of quantum cosmology: A framework to discuss the cosmological constant problem [PDF]
Physics of the Dark Universe, 2017 We endorse the context that the cosmological constant problem is a quantum cosmology issue. Therefore, in this paper we investigate the $q$-deformed Wheeler-DeWitt equation of a spatially closed homogeneous and isotropic Universe in the presence of a conformally coupled scalar field.

Anselm's Temporal‐Ontological Proof
Noûs, EarlyView.ABSTRACT In his Reply to Gaunilo, Anselm presented two additional arguments for the existence of God beyond those that appear in the Proslogion. In “The Logical Structure of Anselm's Argument,” Robert M. Adams isolates each. One, he develops into a modal ontological argument along the lines of other 20th century ontological arguments (e.g., those of ...
