Genesis, Implementation and Continuous Enforcement of Laws of Nature: Deeper Understanding Needed | Chapter 5 | Contemporary Perspective on Science, Technology and Research Vol. 7

British theoretical physicist Stephen Hawking argued that ‘God did not create the universe and the "Big Bang" was an inevitable consequence of the laws of physics.’ In "The Grand Design," (2010) co-authored with U.S. physicist Leonard Mlodinow, Hawking said that a new series of theories made a creator of the universe redundant; "Because there is a law such as gravity, the universe can and will create itself from nothing. Spontaneous creation is the reason there is something rather than nothing, why the universe exists, why we exist….It is not necessary to invoke God to light the blue touch paper and set the universe going."

 

The implications of his ideas reflect the reality of the emerging corporate-led world order. It is unfortunate that the opposition to the existence of God has become such a precondition for the think-tank of the New World Order that scientists who oppose God are being given all the attention, and those who argue against atheism are normally ignored. Hawking says that the creation of the universe is the automatic consequence of the laws of nature. But the question arises: What is the genesis of these laws and how they are being enforced in such a huge universe, where the light, which is regarded by current Physics, as the fastest moving entity, takes billions of years to travel from one end to the other. The aims/objectives of this paper are to:

 

Highlight the fact that the Laws of Nature (including the Four Fundamental Forces) came before the beginning of the creation and expansion of the matter.

·         Highlight the fact that there has hardly been any discussion on why and how these Laws began to appear.

·         Highlight the fact that there has to be a theorisation on the source of these laws;

·         There has to be a theorisation on what is behind the successful implementation of these laws for billions of years in such a massive universe.

·         To ask how can there be Laws without any Lawmakers and how can they be implemented and enforced without anyone playing the ultimate role.
