"A mathematical model of the solar system doesn’t invoke God, yet Johannes Kepler (1571-1630), when he discovered the mathematical laws of planetary motion, is said to have cried out, ‘O God, I am thinking your thoughts after you!’ There is no symbol representing God in Kepler’s equations but that didn’t stop him ascribing the laws themselves to the divine mind."
