"The Great Implication" by Stanley R. Lee is a science fiction work written in the early 1960s. The book explores complex themes surrounding the concept of time travel, existentialism, and the nature of God and determinism. It delves into philosophical debates regarding free will and the implications of human actions across time, prompting readers to contemplate significant theological questions. The narrative centers around Leopold Pendelton, a brilliant but eccentric thinker who embarks on an experiment to test the existence of God through time travel. Pendelton's unconventional theories spark heated discussions among his colleagues, Blackburn and Shaheen, as they grapple with the consequences of altering the past and its implications for free will and a higher power. Through a series of humorous and thought-provoking scenarios, including a failed attempt that involves a dress and its colors, the story unfolds to reveal the challenges of proving or disproving God's existence, leaving readers to ponder the intricate interplay of science, belief, and the human experience.
