Church and Cosmologies

Haas sought to combine his ideas on cosmology with the idea of a higher being, whose existence he saw reflected in the universal constants of physics. He developed close relationships with Catholic visitors and developed several lectures to find proof of the existence of God, going back to many of his original arguments from his younger years. In this idea Haas diverged from Canon Lemaitre, one of the famous cosmologists at the time, who was spending a sabbatical year at Notre Dame.
