No. The concept of phsyics that "promotes" no angels is one I have never seen or heard of.
Of course you have. I just advanced it, and it's based on a comparison of modern physics and the physics of the middle ages.

IMHO, mathematical theory explains so many of the mysteries of this world. Consider the argument of free will versus determination. (Similar to evolution versus ID?)

Someone recently suggested that maybe it is neither black or white. Our life might be a combination similar to intelligent agents as in agent-based simulation modeling. It is worth considering. Maybe God has an overall plan, but to make life worth living, he allows free will.

A totally deterministic world only encourages socialism and laziness.

Marvin Minsky. I like that theory.
