Karl Heim, Date of Birth, Place of Birth, Age, Net Worth, Biography

Karl Heim (20 January 1874 – 30 August 1958) was a professor of dogmatics at Münster and Tübingen.
He retired in 1939.
His idea of God controlling quantum events that do and would seem otherwise random has been seen as the precursor to much of the current studies on divine action.
His current influence upon religion and science theology has been compared in degree to that of the physicist and theologian Ian Barbour and of the scientist and theological organizer Ralph Wendell Burhoe.
His doctrine on the transcendence of God has been thought to anticipate important points of later religious and science discussions, including the application of Thomas Kuhn's idea of a paradigm to religion and Thomas F.
Torrance's theory of multileveled knowledge.
Mention of Heim's physical and theological concept of extra-dimensional space can be found in a 2001 puzzle book by the popular mathematics writer Martin Gardner.
His concept of space has also been discussed by Ian Barbour himself, who in a review of the book Christian Faith and Natural Science (English translation, 1953, Harper & Brothers) and in a mention of "its more technical sequel" The Transformation of the Scientific World-View (English translation, 1943, Harper & Brothers), found it to be "an illuminating insight."
