The Invented Universe
How Science Explains the Supernatural
We’ve been told that DNA is the blueprint for life. That the Big Bang explains the universe. That the multiverse might explain everything else.
But what if none of that is actually supported by the data?
In The Invented Universe, D. L. Weller pulls back the curtain on some of modern science’s most deeply held assumptions—and reveals how much of what we’re told is based more on speculation than observation.
This book makes a startling claim:
DNA simply doesn’t contain enough information to explain life.
A single cell must coordinate billions of protein molecules in real time. Yet most of the information in DNA is limited to directing the sequence of amino acids in proteins. Very little remains to guide the complex behavior of proteins, organelles, or cellular processes. And when we scale up to multicellular life—especially a human being with trillions of specialized, cooperating cells—the information gap becomes impossible to ignore.
If DNA doesn’t direct this, what does?
Meanwhile, leading cosmological theories invoke concepts like multiverses, inflation fields, and repulsive gravity—ideas with no empirical support. These aren’t conclusions drawn from data, but speculative constructs designed to preserve a materialistic worldview.
The Invented Universe challenges readers to rethink what science actually shows—and what it assumes. With clarity, depth, and bold insight, Weller asks whether the deepest mysteries of life and the cosmos point not to randomness, but to something more.

About the author
D. L. Weller has spent more than forty years helping inventors shape the future of technology. With formal training in electrical engineering, computer science, law, and theology, he brings an uncommon breadth of expertise to the biggest questions of human existence. Throughout his career as a Silicon Valley patent attorney, he has worked closely with scientists and engineers across highly advanced fields, while also pursuing enduring questions about the relationship between science and belief.
He has published peer-reviewed research on relativity and black holes, reflecting his longstanding fascination with the nature and structure of the universe.
Weller is the author of The Invented Universe: How Science Explains the Supernatural and The Discovered Universe: Where Science Meets the Supernatural, books that blend scientific insight with philosophical clarity to show where empirical investigation ends and deeper questions begin.
He writes for thoughtful readers who recognize that some ideas merely wear the lab coat of science. For those willing to think beyond materialist assumptions, he offers an invitation to explore truth wherever it leads.
