The Science of Mind and discoveries of reality

FOR much of this century, religion and science were barely speaking. Yet some futurists say a major direction of the coming millennium will be a new cooperation between the two. Actually, though, something far vaster may be happening. In certain areas, theological and scientific research is converging in an extraordinary new endeavor which is reaching to define reality itself—and to establish scientifically the very existence of God.Frank J. Tipler, The Physics of Immortality (New York: Anchor, 1994), pp. 3–4 .

A few thinkers in the vanguard of modern physics now believe that God is scientifically "discoverable." And they feel under a mandate to explain God in comprehensible terms. Ibid.

The motive underlying this mission has an affinity with the Science of Christianity. Mary Baker Eddy writes: "Christian Science translates Mind, God, to mortals. It is the infinite calculus defining the line, plane, space, and fourth dimension of Spirit" (Miscellaneous Writings, p. 22).
