Stars, Cells, and God A Scientific Case from Modern Physics—Does God Exist?
27 snips
Feb 18, 2026 Aaron Zimmer, a rabbi with a physics background and trading-model experience, and Elie Feder, a rabbi and mathematician specializing in graph theory, discuss why our universe follows the particular qualitative laws it does. They explore multiple possible law-sets, why ours produce structure and complexity, critiques of multiverse replies, and why selection of such laws suggests design.

Episode notes
Hosts' Background In Math Physics And Theology
- Elie Feder introduces himself as a rabbi and mathematician with a PhD in graph theory who co-hosts Physics to God.
- He and Aaron Zimmer have spent over a decade exploring physics and theology and started a podcast and book project.
From Physics Degree To Market Modeler
- Aaron Zimmer says he studied physics but moved into commodity trading, applying physics-style modeling to markets.
- He and Elie use their diverse backgrounds to craft arguments linking modern physics to the existence of God.
Many Possible Law Systems Replace The Puzzle
- The unique-final-theory hope collapsed as physicists realised many alternative, consistent sets of laws are possible.
- Paul Davies and others acknowledged we can model many consistent laws on computers, so ours is one choice among many.
