DAWKINS AND A
"GIGANTIC INTELLIGENCE"
Very few seem to be aware of a amazing admission Dawkins made to a
Timesonline interviewer in 2007. During this interview Richard Dawkins made
known that he was open to the possibility that in the future scientists
might find evidence of a "Gigantic Intelligence" greater than what even
theologians might have conceived of. Greater than God...
“Well, I’m convinced that future
physicists will discover something at least as wonderful as any god you
could ever imagine.” Why not call it God? “I don’t think it’s helpful to
call it God.” OK, but what would “it” be like?
“I think it’ll be something
wonderful and amazing and something difficult to understand. I think that
all theological conceptions will be seen as parochial and petty by
comparison.” He can even see how “design” by some gigantic intelligence
might come into it. “But that gigantic intelligence itself would need an
explanation. It’s not enough to call it God, it would need some sort of
explanation such as evolution. Maybe it evolved in another universe and
created some computer simulation that we are all a part of. These are all
science-fiction suggestions but I am trying to overcome the limitations of
the 21st-century mind. It’s going to be grander and bigger and more
beautiful and more wonderful and it’s going to put theology to shame.”
