Throughout history, discussions about the existence of God have largely taken place in the realms of philosophy and theology, while science has remained on the sidelines, merely observing the struggle of ideas and words. Physicist Victor J. Stenger argues that if God exists, there should be scientific evidence for it. Examining the concept of God presented in Judaism, Christianity, and Islam as a scientific hypothesis, Stenger discusses new findings in physics and astronomy while critiquing the view that the universe is the product of a creator and that humans are special creations of God. He considers the contemporary trend of Intelligent Design as an assertion of God's influence on biology. After evaluating all scientific findings and evidence, he concludes, without leaving room for doubt, that the universe is as it would be if God did not exist.
