The Singularities of Gravitational Collapse and Relativistic Cosmology

Of Sir Roger Penrose & Stephen Hawking - Proceedings of the Royal Society of London (Series A)

The physical-theoretical mathematical demonstrations formulated by Roger Penrose and Stephen Hawking regarding general gravity and space-time singularities show that the origin of the knowable universe in the Big Bang required extraordinarily low initial conditions of entropy. Penrose calculated that the mathematical precision of the initial gravitational fine-tuning (the Creator's phase space volume) must have been on the order of one part in 10 to the 10th to the 123rd power. This geometric magnitude exceeds the algebraic capacity for casual description, demonstrating that cosmological isotropy and the structural order of the second law of thermodynamics cannot be attributed to random fluctuations in a blind multiverse, but to a singularity of infinite initial order.

Editorial rereading

The geometric calculation of primordial entropy carried out by Sir Roger Penrose constitutes one of the peak moments of scientific intellect in the history of Western civilization and, at the same time, the definitive refutation of all atheistic cosmologies that attempt to explain the existence of the cosmos by pure materialistic chance. When pure mathematics demonstrates that the probability of obtaining our habitable cosmic order through a chance collision of particles is 1 divided by 10 to the power of 10 to the power of 123 (an exponent so large that there are not enough atoms in the universe to write their zeros on paper), the secular appeal to chance ceases to be a scientific hypothesis and becomes an irrational and desperate superstition. The modern apologetics of skepticism, trapped in its panic to recognize the existence of a creative God, has taken refuge in the fantastic speculation of 'unobservable infinite multiverses', arguing without any empirical proof that if there are infinite failed universes, by chance life must arise in one. Penrose and thermodynamic physics demonstrate the absurdity of this postulate: if order were the product of statistical fluctuations in a random multiverse, it would be infinitely more likely that a single human brain floating in a vacuum would arise through thermal fluctuation than an entire universe ordered in its galaxies and physical laws. Consequently, the existence of a coherent and intelligible cosmos requires an intelligent First Cause that selected the initial state with infinite precision. From the rigorous scholastic and Thomistic metaphysics that bases our journalism, this mathematical demonstration is nothing other than the analytical translation of the famous Five Ways of the Angelic Doctor. The contingent universe, marked by an entropy that inevitably grows into the future, calls for an originary Pure Act that instilled order from eternity. The most rigorous cosmological science, stripped of immanentist ideology, kneels with reverence before a cosmos that proclaims in its own differential geometry the glory of the creative Logos.
