“Although cosmic mysteries remain, Sean Carroll, a theoretical cosmologist at the California Institute of Technology, says there’s good reason to think science will ultimately arrive at a complete understanding of the universe that leaves no grounds for God whatsoever.”

Book to follow, foundations of religion and science shaken by controversial new theory, ground breaking study, blah and more blah. Just a few a little details to be worked out like....like....where do they find these people?

NEVER HAPPEN! As soon as it does all their funding will dry up and they will have to go out and work for a living.

All,

Look at the turn of the 19th to 20th Century Physcists were saying ‘All had been discovered!’. There was really nothing to left to do but maybe calculate physical constants out to a few more decimal places.

Then BOOM!

The ultraviolet catastrophe, physics as was understood had severe problems and was collapsing in contradiction. Then came Bohr, Planck, Schrodinger, etc and Quantum Mechanics. There are still real problems with current physical theory. (Read Lee Smolin’s book ‘The Trouble With Physics’ & Peter Woit’s book ‘Not Even Wrong!’)

This Carroll guy would be well to remember the past, the Universe has a way of making such arrogant smugness look foolish.
