Ghosts and gods exist objectively. Now some foreign experiments can prove the existence of ghosts and gods!
Most of the world's famous scientists are theists
From 1901 to 1996, except for the first and second wars, when commentaries were suspended for a few years due to the war,** *Recognized 639 Nobel Prize winners. Among them, 148 were awarded the Physics Prize, 123 were awarded the Chemistry Prize, 159 were awarded the Physiology or Medicine Prize, 91 were awarded the Literature Prize, 81 were awarded the Peace Prize, and 37 were awarded the Economic Prize. Among the 639 winners, 21 have no religious beliefs or have indifferent religious beliefs. They mainly come from the former Soviet Union and former Eastern European socialist countries. There are 618 people who believe in various religions.
Among them, 596 people believe in Christianity (including Christianity, Protestant Christianity, and Orthodox Christianity), 8 people believe in Judaism, 8 people believe in Buddhism, 4 people believe in Islam, and 2 people believe in Hinduism.
Among the 81 Nobel Peace Prize winners, religious identity is even more prominent. For example, the black South African Archbishop Tutu, the famous American black leader Rev. Martin Luther King Jr., the Indian Mother Teresa, the French theologian Albert Schweitzer, the Swedish theologian Nathan, etc. Some famous social activists, politicians and heads of state, such as Kissinger in the United States (Jewish), Nelson Mandela in South Africa (Protestant), Rabin in Israel (Judaism), Arafat in Palestine (Islam), and Wavin in Poland Sa (Catholic) and others all have religious beliefs. In 1973, South Vietnam leader Le Duc Tho received the Peace Prize (no religious affiliation), but he refused to accept the award. (This information is excerpted from the "People's Political Consultative Conference" on June 29, 2002.)
According to the 1998 issue of "World Religion and Culture", there are approximately 4.809 billion religious believers in the world today ( At that time, the total world population was approximately 6.15 billion), accounting for 78.1 of the world's total population. Apparently, 1.2 billion of the 1.3 billion people in the world who have no religious beliefs are in China.
There is a book called "Scientists' Views on Life", which investigated the religious views of 432 scientists. Among them, 34 were unable to determine their religious attitudes, and 15 held the view that religion was "all indispensable" or Regarding the "agnostic" attitude, 16 said they were atheists, while 367 claimed to have faith - a firm and definite belief in the existence of God and the immortality of the soul. In this book, it is mentioned that many famous scientists in the world believe in religion. For example, Galileo, Newton, Gauss, Watt, Ampere, Lafarday, Edison, Pasteur, Einstein, etc.
96.7% of Nobel Prize winners believe in religion and 93.2% believe in Christianity
Every year on December 10, the anniversary of Nobel’s death, the Nobel Prize Jury is held in Stockholm, the capital of Sweden, and Norway. In the capital Oslo, grand award ceremonies were held respectively. From 1901 to 1996 (except during the two world wars), the Communist Party of China named 639 Nobel Prize winners.
Among the 639 winners, 21 have no religious beliefs or have indifferent religious beliefs. Accounting for 3.3, they are mainly from the former Soviet Union and former Eastern European countries. There are 618 people who believe in various religions, accounting for 96.7%. Among them, 596 people believe in Christianity (including Catholicism, Protestantism, and Orthodox Christianity), accounting for 93.2%. 8 people believe in Judaism, 8 people believe in Buddhism, 4 people believe in Islam, and 2 people believe in Hinduism.
Among the 81 Nobel Peace Prize winners, religious identity is even more prominent. For example, the black South African Archbishop Tutu, the American black leader Pastor Martin Luther King, Mother Teresa of India, and the French priest Albert. Schweitzer, Swedish theologian Nathan, etc. Some famous social activists, politicians and heads of state, such as Kissinger in the United States (Judaism), Mandela in South Africa (Protestant), Rabin in Israel (Judaism), and Arafat in Palestine (Islam) , Walesa (Catholic) in Poland, etc. all have religious beliefs.

Many Christians (including three Catholics) He is the founder of modern science, such as:
(1) Newton (1642-1727) Newton is an outstanding representative of this large number of Christian scientists. He entered Cambridge University at the age of 18 and became a professor at Cambridge University at the age of 27. This is enough to prove how brilliant his achievements were. His scientific research areas include mathematics, physics and astronomy. He invented mathematical calculus, published the foundational work of modern science "Mathematical Principles of Natural Science", proposed the three laws of motion in mechanics named after him, the story of his discovery of the law of universal gravitation under an apple tree, and several It has been used by many teachers and parents around the world for centuries as a classic material for popular science enlightenment education for children.
Although Newton made unparalleled contributions to science, he was also a devout Christian. Throughout his life, he believed that human rationality was limited and could not accommodate all experiences; therefore, his interest in studying the Bible was not secondary to studying science. According to statistics, the scientific works published by Newton accounted for only 16 of his total works. The other 84 works were unpublished theological works during his lifetime, totaling more than 1.4 million words. He wrote: "I firmly believe that the Bible is the word of God and was written by men inspired by God. Therefore, I study the Bible every day." "According to the results of my research, the faith and evidence recorded in the Bible are far from secular. "
(2) Faraday (1791-1867) Faraday was a British physicist, chemist, and Christian elder. He is famous for his discovery of electromagnetic induction. As the "Father of Electricity", the unit of capacitance is named "Farad" after him. He was also an inventor and manufacturer, and invented generators, transformers and the earliest electric engines.
Faraday was a devout Christian who served as an elder in a church in London. He preached many times a week and has as many as 150 sermons preserved to this day. His famous saying is: "What the Bible says, we say; what the Bible does not say, we should not say." He believed in the unity and coherence of God's creation, which led him to introduce the concepts of electric fields and magnetic fields. In order to make the public understand the creation of God's wisdom, he publicly demonstrated his discoveries in electricity. In his later years, he read the Bible diligently. When he was asked by a reporter whether he had any speculations about his death, he replied: "Guesses? I never have any guesses. I firmly believe in all the evidence. I know who I believe in, and I know who I believe in." Convinced that He is able to preserve what I have entrusted to Him until that day (2 Timothy 1:12)”
(3) Joule (1818-1889) Joule was a British physicist. His contribution to physics was that he laid the foundation for the laws of energy conservation and conversion. The unit of energy was named "Joule" after him. He proposed Joule's law and was hailed as the ancestor of the then new science of thermodynamics. He provided the experimental basis for the first law of thermodynamics (which implies that the universe was not naturally derived).
Joule was a Christian who believed that scientific research was consistent with biblical truth. Convinced that God is the Creator of the universe, he listed his priorities: "Profess faith, submit to God's will, and then experience His wisdom, power, and goodness through the work of His hands."
(4) Maxwell (1831-1879) Maxwell was a British physicist. His electromagnetic theory and related equations opened a new milestone for physics in the twentieth century.
Friends and colleagues in the scientific community recognized Maxwell as a devout Christian and an elder in the church. He often studied the Bible and recorded his prayer in his notebook: "O Almighty God, you created man in your image and gave him a soul of life so that he could seek you. You rule over all creation and teach us to study The work you have done with your own hands enables us to cultivate the land and make good use of the resources, so that we can redouble our efforts to serve you. You also enable us to receive your praiseworthy words and believe that you sent the Lord Jesus to bring us the knowledge of salvation and forgiveness of sins. We pray in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
”
(5) Pascal (1623-1662) Pascal was a French mathematician and physicist. He showed extraordinary talent since childhood. At the age of 16, he wrote the famous work "Theory of Conic Sections" on projective geometry. ; He studied the coefficient rules of binomial expansion in algebra, and also made outstanding contributions to the study of probability theory and cycloids. In physics, he proposed Pascal's law that closed fluids can transmit pressure, and the unit of pressure is based on his. Named "Pascal"
Pascal is a rare Christian scientist who "does not love the world but loves God". Just when his scientific research achievements were soaring, he gave up at the age of 24. He committed himself to scientific research and devoted himself completely to God. His major works, "Thoughts" and "Correspondence to the Provinces", are regarded as theological classics. Pascal's scientific method has a deep imprint on Christian faith, and he carried out rationalism. He believes that people must accept (or reject) the revelation of God, and cannot doubt the infinity of God simply because it is inconsistent with reason, and that claim can be made with the help of scientific principles. The view of explaining all things is an extremely arrogant and arrogant assumption. Through "Thoughts", we can see the voice of a Christian: "Without Jesus Christ, the world cannot survive, because it will inevitably lead to the destruction of the world or the destruction of the world." It's like a hell. ”
(6) Galileo (1564-1642) Galileo was an Italian physicist. His name is closely connected with the famous Leaning Tower of Pisa. His free fall experiment on the Leaning Tower, Overturning Aristotle's argument that objects of different weights fall at different speeds, Galileo was the first to test the correctness of the theoretical derivation through experiments, thus laying the foundation for modern scientific research methods; therefore, he is known as the father of modern science. . In the field of astronomy, Galileo used a homemade astronomical telescope to conduct astronomical observations, wrote "Dialogue Concerning the Two Main World Systems", and declared that Copernicus' "earthquake theory" was completely correct.
Galileo was a devout Catholic and monk. He believed that the Bible was inspired by God and that science and the Bible could not conflict with each other. He believed that there was no contradiction between religious beliefs and scientific beliefs. In June 1633, Pope Urban VIII. Feeling the growing influence of Protestant Christianity, he was determined to safeguard the interests of the Catholic Church and suppress the views of Galileo's "Dialogue". The Inquisition tried Galileo, but Galileo always believed that he was right. He said: "Am I not a Christian? Am I not considered the pride of the church? Do I not worship Almighty God and His only begotten Son, Jesus? What do you want me to repent for? Shall I conceal the truth, blaspheme God, and disgrace the (Catholic) Church? "As a Catholic, he also recognized the authority of synods, sacred tradition and doctrine; he declared in court: "I swear that I have believed in the help of God, the Holy Catholic Church and the Orthodox Church established by the Apostles. Everything taught and imparted. "Galileo insisted on the correct position on the relationship between faith and science. He believed that Copernicus's theory was in line with the Bible, and the Catholic Pope persecuted Galileo out of safeguarding the authority of the Holy See. This incident was a conflict between Protestant Christianity and the old Catholic Church. This conflict cannot be simply described as religious persecution of science. In fact, the Pope is not trying to defend the Bible, but using the political power of Catholic organizations to suppress Christians or scientists who are inclined to Christianity.
( 7) Kelvin (1824-1907) Kelvin was a British physicist and mathematician who was famous for his study of thermodynamics. He systematically elaborated the first and second laws of Joule's thermodynamics in precise terms. It reflects that the theory of evolution is not scientific. Kelvin discovered the absolute temperature scale, and his name is used internationally as the unit of the absolute temperature scale.
Kelvin was a devout Christian. He said: "Everything around us is. Evidence of the conception of wisdom and love...the concept of atheism lies in ignorance, which pen and ink cannot describe. He believes that there is no conflict between science and the Bible at all, and believes: "As far as the origin of life is concerned, science positively affirms the power of creation."
"Once, his students asked him what was the biggest discovery in his life. He did not say it was the second law of thermodynamics, but said: "Among the discoveries in my life, the most valuable one is knowing the Lord Jesus Christ. "
(8) Planck (1858-1947) Planck was an outstanding German physicist and winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics. In 1900, he proposed the "quantum hypothesis" that shocked the scientific community " was later used by scientists to explain various physical phenomena and verified the correctness of quantum theory. Quantum theory became one of the most significant events in physics in the 20th century. Planck made a contribution to ushering in a new era of revolutionary development in physics. He made a huge contribution.
Planck believed in God and served as a deacon of the Christian Church from 1920 until his death. He believed that God is omnipresent and the laws of nature are controlled by God; He repeatedly emphasized that science and faith are not antagonistic, but complementary to each other. At the end of his masterpiece "Religion and Natural Science", he called on scientists to "go toward God"
(9) Flute Karl Descartes (1596-1650) was a French mathematician, physicist and philosopher. He founded analytic geometry and used a coordinate system to describe the correspondence between points and coordinate values ??in space. He believed: "Mathematical truth, Like everything else in creation, it is established by God and depends on God. ”
Descartes firmly believed in the existence of God. In his major philosophical works, he wrote: “When I think of God with all my heart, and turn completely towards God, I find that there is no error or falsehood. reasons; but after a while, when I think back to myself, experience tells me that I will still make countless mistakes." He also said: "If there are certain objects, or certain minds, or other things in the world, Nature is not completely perfect, so their existence must depend on the power of God; without God, they cannot survive for a moment. ”
(10) Leibniz (1646-1716) Leibniz was an outstanding German mathematician and philosopher. He and Newton invented calculus almost at the same time, which is now used in higher mathematics The integral symbol was invented by Leibniz. In order to commemorate his and Newton's outstanding contributions to integral calculus, the international mathematical community calls the "Basic Formula of Integral Calculus" the "Newton-Leibniz Formula".
Leibniz believed that God is the supreme creator. He has given the world certain laws, so social life also has its own rules. This is natural law. Leibniz believed that mathematics is nothing else. It is God's masterpiece. He has always connected his profound knowledge and research work with God. For him, the knowledge of God is the highest goal of his work. He said: "God not only exists. The source, and the source of essence, is the source of real things, and also the source of actual things in possibility. This is because the wisdom of God is the seat of eternal truth, or the seat of the ideas on which eternal truth depends. For without God there is nothing real in all possibilities, not only nothing real, but nothing possible. ”
(11) Boyle (1627-1691) Boyle was a British chemist and physicist. He used experiments to clarify the principle of pressure rise and fall, and found that a certain mass of gas will change when the temperature remains constant. , pressure and volume are inversely proportional. This is the famous "Boyle-Marriott Law" in middle school physics textbooks. Boyle was also a pioneer of modern chemistry. He first introduced the name of chemical analysis and defined elements as elements. Decomposed substances began the study of analytical chemistry.
Boyle was a devout Christian who made achievements in both science and theology and had insightful views on the relationship between religion and science. , science is a preeminent school of religion, a religious mission, the revelation of God's breathtaking works as manifest in the universe, and science is the ally of religion and even guided by it, Boyle believed. At the time of creation, there was no entity other than Him, no creature to which He was obligated or capable of binding Him. If God ceased to sustain the universe, it would fall apart.
The constant involvement of divine power is necessary, because law is not a real force, but only an expression of regularity. This criticizes the misconception that God is only the original driving force of the movement of the universe and that God is no longer needed. In his book "Christian Giants", Boyle believed that there is no conflict between science and Christian faith. Both science and faith recognize that human wisdom is limited. Only with the help of the patterns and revelations of God's creation of nature can people form correct concepts. . Boyle did extensive research on Christian apologetics. He also supported the publication of the Bible. He funded the publication of the first Indian-language Bible released in the United States.
(12) Dalton (1766-1844) Dalton was a British chemist and physicist. His main contribution to science was the creation of atomic theory, which made chemistry a true science. He was awarded the Royal Medal for the publication of "A New System of Chemical Principles" and was elected as a member of the Royal Society of London.
Dalton is an orthodox Newtonian scholar in his faith and is a devout Christian. When he was 12 years old, he held some positions in the church school. He believed that God controlled the laws of nature, making invisible elementary particles mutable or destructible.
(13) Pasteur (1822-1895) Pasteur was a famous French chemist and microbiologist. He created two new disciplines: microbiology and bacteriology. He also invented immunity. Vaccination and low-heat disinfection saved many people's lives. He proposed the law of panspermia, stating that life can only come from life, refuting the prevailing view of natural derivation of evolution.
Pasteur was a devout and conservative Christian in his faith. He believed that there was no contradiction between science and Christianity. He firmly believed that science could bring people closer to God. He said: "The more we care about nature, The more I study, the more I feel the miraculous work of the Creator." He has strong faith in God and the gospel. He said: "If you admit the existence of God, this faith is more amazing and incredible than the miracles of all religions. If we have this kind of faith and understanding, we have to kneel down and worship God." He often prayed while working in the laboratory. Pasteur believed that God, because of his infinite charity, could not create a punishment for mankind without creating a remedy for mankind at the same time. To this end, he tirelessly searched for specific drugs, discovered various antitoxins, found methods to prevent and treat cattle and sheep anthrax, chicken cholera, rabies, etc., and greatly developed immunology.
(14) Mendel (1822-1884) Mendel was an Austrian geneticist and the founder of genetics. In 1865, Mendel published an article entitled "Experiments on Plant Hybridization", proposing the concept of genetic units (genes) and clarifying their genetic laws, laying the foundation for the development of genetics.
Mendel was seriously ill three times when he was young. He felt that his future was bleak. In 1843, he entered a Catholic monastery as a monk. After studying for four years in theology courses, he served as a church priest and was later ordained as a Catholic priest. Dean of a monastery, specializing in theological education.
(15) Euler was born in Switzerland and educated there. Euler was a mathematical prodigy. He is known as one of the two greatest mathematicians in history (the other being Carl Friedrich Gauss). As a professor of mathematics, he taught in St. Petersburg and Berlin, and then returned to St. Petersburg. Euler is the mathematician with the second most published papers in history, with a total of 75 volumes;
He published 856 papers (another said 865) and 32 books (another 865). One said 31 parts). The output is so large that no one can match it. Euler actually dominated mathematics from the 18th century to the present; he derived many results for the newly invented calculus at the time. From 1735 to 1771, Euler lost his sight in both eyes (it is said that he was directly observing the sun with his eyes). Although Euler was completely blind for the last seven years of his life, he still produced half of his works at an astonishing rate.
Euler studied theology when he was young. He was devout and believed in God all his life and could not allow any remarks that slandered God to be made in front of him.
There is a widely circulated legend that Euler challenged the atheist Denis Diderot who was visiting the court at the court of Catherine II: "Sir, , therefore God exists. This is the answer!" Denis, who didn't understand mathematics, didn't know how to deal with it, so he had to surrender.
(16) Gauss is considered the most important mathematician and is known as the "Prince of Mathematics". Gauss is the son of an ordinary couple. His mother was the daughter of a poor mason. Although she was very smart, she had no education and was almost illiterate. Before she became the second wife of Gauss's father, she worked as a maid. His father worked as a gardener, foreman, businessman's assistant and appraiser for a small insurance company. It is an anecdote that Gauss was able to correct his father's debt accounts when he was only three years old. He once said that he learned calculations on Mai Xian Weng Dui. The ability to perform complex calculations in his head was a God-given gift throughout his life.
Gauss was very religious and conservative.
