Disturbing the Universe - Freeman Dyson - Part 9
Chapters 22 & 23
Chapter 22 Back to Earth.
Freeman Dyson tells of his experience off the coast of British Columbia, Canada on an island north of Vancouver.
Thoreau said that most men lead lives of quiet desperation, yet desperataion implies effort. Many have already given up. So it may be more accurate to say - most men lead lives of quiet misery.
Page 242 "Tragedy is no stranger to these islands."
Chapter 23 The Argument from Design.
Page 249: The laws (of physics) leave a place for mind in the description of every molecule.
It is clear that that Freeman Dyson reached the conclusion that the architecture of the universe is consistent with the hypothesis that God plays an essential role in its functioning.
