How can we know whether or not God exists? For the last few centuries most scientists have promoted an atheistic or agnostic reply. In the last decade, however, a set of remarkable discoveries about the universe have dramatically jolted their position. Have cosmologists been forced to acknowledge the existence of God? If so, how?
Historically, the question “How did the universe begin?” has evoked chauvinistic replies from opposing camps:
• Scientists have said that there may be an answer, but it only will come through a study of science.
• Theologians have said that there may be an answer, but it will only come through a study of theology.
• Philosophers have concluded that there is no answer. Existentialists go so far as to declare that the question itself is absurd.
To tell the story of how the question has been answered—independently and corroboratively, by both science and theology—is the purpose of this book. In The Fingerprint of God Dr. Hugh Ross tells the fascinating story of how the latest research into origins not only has sealed the case for divine creation, but has revealed the identity of the Creator himself.
