Happy Resurrection Day!

I intend to get started on a series of posts that explain evidence for the Resurrection of the Jewish Messiah, the King of kings, the Lord of all,Yeshua of Nazareth, later this week.  I am not sure how many parts it will have, but I have a few ideas rolling around in my noodle.  One problem and obstacle will be my schoolwork that is due Tuesday, but I can usually find some time to extemporaneously write a bit.

But first, I wanted to pass on something from smart Christians.  I LOVE smart Christians; there is just something about using the tools that the modern world believes it owns and showing that the most plausible explanation for what we actually observe in world is from a loving God.  Here is an article from Seed magazine about the theological implications of a multiverse.  Essentially, the multiverse--describing exactly what it sounds like--is a philosophical and metaphysical proposition that is more common nowadays, intended to account for, among other things--like obvious design in nature--the beginning of the Universe, (i.e. the Big Bang...since, as Greg Koukl often says, "a Big Bang needs a Big Banger").  A sort-of review of astrophysicist Jeff Zweerink's booklet is included within the post.  I thought it was a well written article, engaging and insightful.  Enjoy!

An excerpt (Zweerink speaking):

“As my understanding of multiverse models increased, I realized the whole issue provided a tremendous opportunity to engage science-minded people and draw them into discussion of the Gospel.” Zweerink hopes to convince fellow Christians that multiverse only replaces one design problem with another, strengthening the evidence of god. “It seems that any multiverse model which can explain our observable universe requires a beginning and still exhibits design,” he says. Zweerink has also devoted a monthly blog post on reasons.org to the theological advantages of multiverse theory.
