But it contributes to our understanding of why the universe behaves the way it does, and that’s a good thing. It doesn’t explain our understanding of who God is or what He’s done. Yet, as Jeff explains, “If we use God to explain the gaps in our knowledge then God will increasingly be relegated to the dustbin as we learn more about the cosmos.” Instead, Jeff says what we can use are the areas that we do understand well to show that fine-tuning argues for God as the Designer.Īs for the Higgs boson, overall the discovery has minimal impact on our faith, Jeff says.ĭespite its moniker, the “God particle” doesn’t prove or disprove God’s existence. Prior to its detection, the Higgs boson may have represented an area that showed gaps in human knowledge and some Christians used that gap to make a case for God. On the other hand, this discovery is a major breakthrough in the physics world because it “completes the zoo of fundamental particles in the standard model of particle physics.” That standard model helps physicists understand the fundamental forces that govern the universe. But to say by detecting this, we’re detecting God-not really. The Higgs boson field imparts mass to particles so it kind of has this godlike quality. Astrophysicist Jeff Zweerink explains in a recent Science News Flash episode. Sadly this gloating (aside from its lack of civility) is misplaced.
Jeff moved back to the valley in 2005 after his father passed away and has lived here ever since. His mom is originally from Elkton and his dad is originally from Shenandoah. Then his family moved to Manassas in northern Virginia. Jeff was born and raised in Roanoke Virginia. This is due in part to his love for land and desire to learn the intricacies of this type of real estate. We are joined on today’s broadcast of Hope Talks by Jeff Higgs. Some even “celebrated” the occasion by tweeting and posting unsavory remarks about atheists. Jeff Higgs, a 5th generation Denton County Resident became a real estate agent in 2009 and has found great success and enjoyment in farm and ranch real estate. One of Listers training partners at the academy, Jeffrey Higgs (who is a black belt under Fabio Santos) decided to award Lister his black belt, Santos was.
While the nickname is more tongue-in-cheek, some assumed the breakthrough was equivalent to scientific detection of God’s existence. Last week scientists announced that they had detected the Higgs boson-or the “God particle”-or at least a Higgs-like particle.
