God, Evolutionary Theories, Global Economy And Ethics

About the Book

The author discusses the shortcomings of Darwin's theory of evolution by critically reviewing the basic tenants of the theory. After showing it inadequacies, he proposes a new theory of evolution based on "Quantum Mechanics". He explains how a new species can arise as a result of "Decoherence". He, then, shows why the position taken by most scientists regarding religious is wrong, misleading and in some cases arrogant. By applying scientific principles he answers questions regarding unusual events such as dreams, intersensory prayers, ghosts, getting in touch with dead persons, what is life and other paranormal occurrences. He shows that ethics based on religious beliefs can serve the global community more justly. He proposes possible solution to cloning, abortion and to stem cell controversy based on religious ethics. He, then, proposes new trading principles, under the name of "Fair Trading" by which every trading partner shares the wealth rather than making the rich richer and the poor poorer.
