Good grief, is he really that dense?

This is Jabbers. The bets a
1 - There is no Dr. Paul Davies
2 - If there is , he never wrote anything vaguely resembling what Jabby claims

Looks like there *is* a third option after all:
3 - Dr. Paul Davies *really is* a kook.

Dr. Paul Davies is very real.
He taught at my alma mater for a while.
He is a theoretical physicist, and prolific authour.

I got the impression from some of his talks and early publications
that he firmly believes in a god of some sort, and tried to open up
the gaps in theoretical physics to allow room for this sky-pixy.

He seems to have toned down that bit of his public persona in the last
few years, and now comes across as more of an agnostic.
He is not a kook, by any stretch of the imagination.
