When Ratzinger Puts on Galileo's Robes


By Sandro Magister, reporting on the science of Creation and the language of mathematics, as articulated by Pope Benedict XVI, who writes:
The great Galileo said that God wrote the book of nature in the form of the language of mathematics. He was convinced that God has given us two books: the book of Sacred Scripture and the book of nature. And the language of nature – this was his conviction – is mathematics, so it is a language of God, a language of the Creator.
I am exceedingly grateful for Pope Benedict XVI.
