Yep. Talk radio 710 Kansas City. I forget which program it was
on. The host was trying to explain that god works at the 'quantum
level'. It kept me laughing for days.
Regarding Einstein and QP, I understand that the big E was
mainly disturbed by the lack of geometry in the new field of
nuclear physics. As one author put it, Einstein wanted to
replace the 'wood' of physics into the 'marble' of geometry.
String theory seems to hold hopes of reconciling the two
positions.
For an excellent introduction to the possibilities of string theory,
_Hyperspace, A scientific Odyssey Through Parallel Universes,
Time Warps, and the 10th Dimension_ by Michio Kaku is all I
can suggest. I haven't been able to find anything else in the popular
literature yet.
