Lawrence
Maxwell Krauss (born 27 May 1954) is an American theoretical physicist
and cosmologist who is Foundation Professor of the School of Earth and
Space Exploration at Arizona State University, and director of its
Origins Project.
He is known as an advocate of the public
understanding of science, of public policy based on sound empirical
data, of scientific skepticism and of science education, and works to
reduce the influence of what he opines as superstition and religious
dogma in popular culture.
Krauss is the author of several bestselling
books, including The Physics of Star Trek (1995) and A Universe from
Nothing (2012), and chairs the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists Board
of Sponsors.
Krauss has argued that public policy debates in the
United States should have a greater focus on science, and that the
public have a right to scrutinize the religious beliefs of Presidential
candidates in the ways that they relate to public policy.
Krauss
describes himself as an antitheist and takes part in public debates on
religion. Krauss is featured in the 2013 documentary The Unbelievers, in
which he and Richard Dawkins travel across the globe speaking publicly
about the importance of science and reason as opposed to religion and
superstition. He has participated in many debates with religious
apologists, including William Lane Craig.
In his book, A Universe
from Nothing: Why There is Something Rather than Nothing (2012), Krauss
discusses the premise that something cannot come from nothing, which has
often been used as an argument for the existence of a Prime mover. He
has since argued in a debate with John Ellis and Don Cupitt that the
laws of physics allow for the universe to be created from nothing. "What
would be the characteristics of a universe that was created from
nothing, just with the laws of physics and without any supernatural
shenanigans? The characteristics of the universe would be precisely
those of the ones we live in. In an interview with The Atlantic,
however, he states that he has never claimed that "questions about
origins are over." According to Krauss, "I don't ever claim to resolve
that infinite regress of why-why-why-why-why; as far as I'm concerned
it's turtles all the way down.
