Book Details

Can We Prove That God Exists? And Does It Matter?

Have you ever wondered about your place in the universe, or the invisible forces that shape our reality? The universe is unknowably vast, full of secrets and mysteries. Over the ages, many people have searched for understanding. In this book, an ordinary man explores questions about God, religion, and spirituality. With thoughtful generosity, author Jim Russ shares his exploration of the main religions of the world, including broader questions of spirituality; he moves on to an overview of philosophy and how it defines the mind, soul, free will, and God. He finishes by looking at science, through the lenses of the theories of relativity, quantum mechanics, and the theory of everything. To conclude, he pulls all of this information together as he delves into the nature of our reality in our everyday lives as well as our relationship to other people and to the universe. Assisted along the way by expert lecturers and authors, this ordinary man provides a path for other ordinary people to follow, to reach the extraordinary.

 

About the Author

Jim Russ

At first glance, Jim Russ seems to be an unlikely person to write about spirituality. He attended Norwich University, a military college in Vermont, and received a Bachelor of Science degree in mathematics. Before going into civilian life, he received an officer’s commission in the US Army, where he spent four years on active duty and a number of years subsequently in the US Army Reserve. After his military service, he worked in IT for 22 years until retirement in 2015. Although his life was primarily secular, Jim found himself pondering the world and universe around him as he considered the deeper questions of everyday life and raising a family. He began this journey of spiritual inquiry to better understand himself and others, and he hopes that walking this path with him will give you an opportunity to pursue your own insight, enlightenment, and spiritual growth.
