Kipley A. Farr is an American author and independent researcher based in Farr West, Utah, who writes on cosmology and its relationship to religion. Farr is associated with the Electric Universe model of cosmology, which holds that electromagnetic forces and plasma play a central role in shaping the structure of the universe.
Biography
Farr is a resident of the North Ogden and Farr West area of Utah, United States. Working outside of the mainstream academic establishment, Farr has pursued questions at the intersection of physical cosmology, theology, and the origin of the universe.
Work
Farr's writing explores connections between scientific cosmology and religious thought, examining how the search for physical truth and the search for meaning might be reconciled. In this context Farr is identified with the Electric Universe tradition, an alternative cosmological framework emphasizing the role of electricity, electric currents, and plasma in the cosmos rather than gravity alone.
Farr's book Cosmology and Religion (1994) addresses the relationship between contemporary cosmological ideas and Christian theology, treating both scientific and religious accounts of the origin and nature of the universe.
