The Stub and the Branch
A Quantum Parable of Life and Death
by C. W. Steinle
A Groundbreaking Exploration of Faith and Physics — Discover the Eternal Truths Hidden in the Quantum World
What if the mysteries of quantum physics could help reveal the deepest truths of Christianity?
In The Stub and the Branch: A Quantum Parable of Life and Death, author C. W. Steinle presents a bold and illuminating comparison between modern quantum theory and timeless biblical revelation. With clarity and depth, Steinle invites readers into a mind-expanding journey where wavefunctions and multiverses serve as metaphors for mortality, rebirth, and the promise of eternal life.
At the heart of this captivating book is a powerful parable: the “Stub” represents the finite, mortal path of humanity, while the “Branch” symbolizes the eternal life offered through Christ. In the same way that observation in quantum physics determines reality, spiritual “observation”—the moment of faith—determines one’s eternal destiny.
