Can science show God created the universe? Scientific theories and conclusions are subject to modification because of the possibility of new discoveries. Nevertheless, certain theories and conclusions are considered well grounded and highly probable because they rest on multiple, distinct, bases of evidence which mutually corroborate one another. There are three mutually corroborative bases of evidence that indicate the existence of a superintellectual creator (God) from the vantage point of modern physics: • Evidence of a beginning of the universe from the law of entropy; • Evidence of a beginning of the universe (or any multiverse in which it might be situated) from the vantage point of space-time geometry; and • Evidence of supernatural design from our low-entropy universe and the anthropic values of cosmological constants. When all three are seen in their mutually corroborative relationship, the conclusion of Balor Institute Scholar in Residence Bruce Gordon is quite reasonable: “When the logical and metaphysical necessity of an efficient cause, the demonstrable absence of a material one, and the proof that there was an absolute beginning to any universe or multiverse are all conjoined with the fact that our universe exists and its conditions are fine-tuned immeasurably beyond the capacity of any mindless process, the scientific evidence points inexorably toward transcendent intelligent agency as the most plausible, if not the only reasonable explanation.”
