A World Connected Within the Bounds of Interpretation - Statistical Thinking, Spiritual Boundaries, and the Faith to Revise What We Believe #888661

What if belief was a sample-and truth, the unknowable population?

A World Connected Within the Bounds of Interpretation is a bold, interdisciplinary exploration of faith, science, and meaning. Engineer and thinker Lawrence Morris weaves together theology, statistics, philosophy, and personal memoir to ask one fundamental question: can spiritual truth be approached the same way we approach data?

Drawing on experiences ranging from data science at NYU Stern to doctrinal questioning within organized religion, Morris challenges readers to examine sacred texts, spiritual traditions, and their own convictions through the lens of reason, probability, and revision.

This updated edition includes new chapters on Bayesian faith, the decay of knowledge across generations, divine variation across cultures, and the power of computational tools to re-examine scripture.

A must-read for seekers, skeptics, and scholars alike.
