Home Press Room 2002 Conference Information >> Weinberg Steven Weinberg Named 2002 Humanist of the Year When the AHA board of directors voted unanimously to confer the Humanist of the Year Award upon Steven Weinberg, they took special note of his views on the latest version of creationism: intelligent design . In an address to the April 1999 conference of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, he ended his address, saying: "I learned that the aim of this conference is to have a constructive dialogue between science and [traditional] religion. I am all in favor of a dialogue between science and religion but not a constructive dialogue. One of the great achievements of science has been if not to make it impossible for intelligent people to be religious then at least to make it possible for them not to be religious. We should not retreat from this accomplishment." Responding to those making the point that today's "higher moral tone" found in some mainstream religious bodies is proof that religion, at least in the past century or so, has had a positive influence on society, Weinberg cites slavery: "Where religion did make a difference, it was more in support of slavery than in opposition to it. Arguments from scripture were used in Parliament to defend the slave trade." In the aftermath of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, the media have been afloat in statements that to be good, patriotic, and loyal citizens we all must affirm belief in God. Citizen George W. Bush often remarks: "This is not a war about religion." In contrast, Weinberg's most memorable observation might well be: "With or without religion, good people can behave well and bad people an do evil; but for good people to do evil-that takes religion."

Nobel Prize in Physics 1901-2000 http://www.nobel.se STEVEN WEINBERG I was born in 1933 in New York City to Frederick and Eva Weinberg. My early inclination toward science received encouragement from my father, and by the time I was 15 or 16 my interests had focused on theoretical physics. I received my undergraduate degree from Cornell in 1954, and then went for a year of graduate study to the Institute for Theoretical Physics in Copenhagen (now the Niels Bohr Institute ). There, with the help of David Frisch and Gunnar Källén. I began to do research in physics. I then returned to the U.S. to complete my graduate studies at Princeton. My Ph.D thesis, with Sam Treiman as adviser, was on the application of renormalization theory to the effects of strong interactions in weak interaction processes. After receiving my Ph.D. in 1957, I worked at Columbia and then from 1959 to 1966 at Berkeley . My research during this period was on a wide variety of topics - high energy behavior of Feynman graphs, second-class weak interaction currents, broken symmetries, scattering theory, muon physics, etc. - topics chosen in many cases because I was trying to teach myself some area of physics. My active interest in astrophysics dates from 1961-62; I wrote some papers on the cosmic population of neutrinos and then began to write a book

Become a Sponsor A Designer Universe? by Steven Weinberg Professor of Physics, University of Texas at Austin Winner of the 1979 Nobel Prize in Physics. I have been asked to comment on whether the universe shows signs of having been designed. I don't see how it's possible to talk about this without having at least some vague idea of what a designer would be like. Any possible universe could be explained as the work of some sort of designer. Even a universe that is completely chaotic, without any laws or regularities at all, could be supposed to have been designed by an idiot. The question that seems to me to be worth answering, and perhaps not impossible to answer, is whether the universe shows signs of having been designed by a deity more or less like those of traditional monotheistic religions—not necessarily a figure from the ceiling of the Sistine Chapel, but at least some sort of personality, some intelligence, who created the universe and has some special concern with life, in particular with human life. I expect that this is not the idea of a designer held by many here. You may tell me that you are thinking of something much more abstract, some cosmic spirit of order and harmony, as Einstein did. You are certainly free to think that way, but then I don't know why you use words like 'designer' or 'God,' except perhaps as a form of protective coloration.

Weinberg, Steven Weinberg and Glashow were members of the same classes at the Bronx High School of Science, New York City (1950), and Cornell University (1954). Weinberg went from Cornell to the Nordic Institute for Theoretical Atomic Physics in Copenhagen for a year and then obtained his doctorate at Princeton University in 1957. He conducted research at Columbia University and at the Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory before joining the faculty of the University of California at Berkeley in 1960. During part of his last two years there, 1968-69, he was visiting professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology; he joined its faculty in 1969, moving to Harvard University in 1973 and to the University of Texas at Austin in 1983.

This Issue Back Issues Editorial Staff News Nobel Prize for Physics 1999 Gerardus 't Hooft The last Nobel Prize for Physics this century goes to Gerardus 't Hooft of Utrecht and Martinus Veltman of Bilthoven in the Netherlands, "for elucidating the quantum structure of electroweak interactions in physics". Exactly 20 years ago the Nobel prize went to Sheldon Glashow, Steven Weinberg and Abdus Salam for their contributions to the electroweak theory ­ the unified theory of weak and electromagnetic interactions, which was first published in 1967. It was 't Hooft's and Veltman's work that put this unification on the map, by showing that it was a viable theory that could make predictions possible. Field theories have a habit of throwing up infinities that at first sight make sensible calculations difficult. This had been a problem with the early forms of quantum electrodynamics and was the despair of a whole generation of physicists. However, its reformulation by Richard Feynman, Julian Schwinger and Sin-Ichiro Tomonaga (Nobel prizewinner 1965) showed how these infinities could be wiped clean by redefining quantities like electric charge. Martinus Veltman Each infinity had a clear origin, a specific Feynman diagram, the skeletal legs of which denote the particles involved. However, the new form of quantum electrodynamics showed that the infinities can be made to disappear by including other Feynman diagrams, so that two infinities cancel each other out. This trick, difficult to accept at first, works very well, and renormalization then became a way of life in field theory. Quantum electrodynamics became a powerful calculator.

Contra Weinbergium: Steven Weinberg, ++Rowan Williams, and Ernest Gellner on fundamentalism and liberalism By T. Peter Park tpeterpark@erols.com Regarding Dreams of a Final Theory (NY: Pantheon Books, 1992) by 1979 Nobel physics laureate Steven Weinberg. Weinberg is an agnostic leaning toward atheism. He believes that "the more the universe seems comprehensible, the more it also seems pointless" (Steven Weinberg, The First Three Minutes , A. Deutsch, 1977, p. 149). He finds religion "indelibly marked with the stamp of wishful thinking" ( Dreams of a Final Theory , p. 255). However, Weinberg has been approvingly quoted by fundamentalists and religious conservatives for a passage in Dreams of a Final Theory attacking religious liberals while describing fundamentalists as closer in spirit to scientists in seeing their beliefs as objectively true: Religious liberals are in one sense even farther in spirit from scientists than are fundamentalists and other religious conservatives. At least the conservatives like the scientists tell you that they believe in what they believe because it is true, rather than because it makes them good or happy. Many religious liberals today seem to think that different people can believe in different mutually exclusive things without any of them being wrong, as long as their beliefs "work for them." Wolfgang Pauli was once asked whether he thought that a particularly ill-conceived physics paper was wrong. He replied that such a description would be too kind-the paper was not even wrong. I happen to think that the religious conservatives are wrong in what they believe, but at least they have not forgotten what it means really to believe something. The religious liberals seem to me to be not even wrong.
