‘God is real’: Harvard Astrophysicist presents proof

Religion and science have always been considered two ends of a spectrum, where one is driven by faith and the other by logic and evidence. But what happens when the two collide? A Harvard scientist has sparked debate by claiming to have developed a mathematical formula proving God’s existence.
Dr.

Willie Soon

, an astrophysicist and aerospace engineer, believes that there is more connection between religion and faith than we give credit. During an interview on the Tucker Carlson Network, he argued that mathematical principles and scientific discoveries support the idea of a universe created with purpose.
To back up his argument, Soon referenced the work of British physicist Paul Dirac, who is credited with the mathematical prediction of existence of antimatter(a counterpart of electron) in 1928.

But it wasn’t until 1932 that Carl Anderson discovered the positron, proving Dirac’s calculations correct. To Mr. Soon, this was nothing short of a miracle—an example of how mathematics can uncover fundamental truths about the universe before they are observed. He believes and asserts that such moments hint at a deeper order, one that science alone never fully explain.
Further, Soon also talked about the mysteries of mathematical geometry, particularly stressing upon the concept of closed curvature in spacetime without gravity. Like an anomaly that can disrupt our understanding of nature, the concepts remain not widely discussed. However, for a better understanding of what Soon was trying to explain, here are a few examples in

theoretical physics

that explore similar ideas:
Hermann Weyl’s work on spacetime curvature: Weyl tensor offered a different way to measure the structure of space by defining gravitational fields without relying on mass-energy. John Archibald Wheeler’s “Geometrodynamics”: Archibald theorized that all physical phenomena can explain the geometry of spacetime itself, implying that curved spacetime might exist even without traditional mass-energy sources.

Willem de Sitter’s solutions to Einstein’s equations: His models describe universes where curvature is instead driven by a cosmological constant rather than matter.
These ideas and concepts were not touched upon by Soon but they really back up his argument that there are some things in the universe that can’t be explained by science. He concluded by saying, “Sometimes we have to bow down and take a deep breath—perhaps some ever-present forces will illuminate our lives. God has given us light. All we have to do is follow it.”
Beyond his radical views on God and science, Soon has made headlines on his hard stance against the cut down of CO2 emission. Soon calls CO2 the “gas of life,” arguing that increased levels benefit plant growth and food production rather than harming the planet. His views, however, go against the mainstream scientific consensus, which overwhelmingly supports the idea that human activity—particularly the burning of fossil fuels—is a major driver of climate change. Instead, Soon believes that natural solar variations are the real cause of global warming. Notwithstanding his views on CO2, Soon’s theory is one that brings the two fields of science and God together, and creates a space for a discussion.
