Strings, Dimensions, God?

The progression of physics is startling, and Brian Greene is at the forefront of superstring theory, specifically. He has a TED talk here that is truly astounding. When he speaks of other dimensions, I can't help but wonder what these things--if anything--will provide in terms of answers about prayer and our connection to other people, amongst other things. Instead of being put off by these ideas, I am perpetually fascinated and eager to learn more. I hope that the answers will become more readily available in my lifetime.
