How I Found God in Quantum Chemistry Class
Guests: Doug Sharp, Rich Geer, Dr. Mike Nolan
Description: Dr. Mike Nolan describes his experiences in graduate school that started him on a search for an explanation for what he saw in all of the complex rules and equations he learned in quantum chemistry class. There, he was compelled to understand principles like Schroedinger’s equation that defined the wave orbital structure of electrons about the nucleus of an atom. He deduced that the world is governed by these interrelated rules, and they must have come from some higher intelligence that would have assembled it. He decided to revisit the Bible and found that the message it delivers was quite different from the storybook tales he heard as a boy in Sunday School. The Bible describes real people with flaws, faults and sins that lead to consequences, and he found that the God of the Bible not only provides a remedy for this but also reasonable explanation for the orderly nature of the world we see around us.
