Doticaj moderne kozmologije i religije: poimanje početka svemira
Contact between Modern Cosmology and Religion: The Ultimate Understanding of the Beginning of the Universe

Summary/Abstract: Uniting the great theories of physics – i.e. the theory of relativity, quantum mechanics and astroparticle physics – continues to remain a dream of both physics and the philosophy of science even at the beginning of the 21st century. In respect of the ultimate laws of the universe (the theory of everything) they all agree that there was a beginning and that the ultimate laws are those that have already ruled at the beginning of the evolution of the universe. The beginning of the universe implies its creation and necessarily points to a Creator – a religious God, to building a bridge between modern cosmology and religion. In regard to the above classical cosmologies (Newton, Kant) correspond to the modern cosmological models of astroparticle theoretical physics, i.e. the reflections of the leading modern cosmologists: Einstein, Weinberg, Penrose, Hawking and others. The author highlights that even great international symposia on the history of science (Mexico City, 2001; Beijing, 2005) keep on reaffirming the complementary relation between science (natural forces) and religion (supernatural forces) as the true and only path to a universal horizon of the world in the 21st century.
