The Jonah Kit

An already dying, despairing Earth finds out that one man's observation of the universe has caused their thread of what I guess is the multiverse to diverge into a reality without god. Also, the imprinting of a human mind on a sperm whale. Certainly a novel of big ideas. And somehow one of the most ridiculous lines I've ever read in a book where a character compares having sex with a psychic douche for his partner.
