Interestingly enough, 2 days ago I watched a special from National Geographic on the history of understanding the universe. The be all end all was Einstien's theory of relativity...the biggest part being gravity.
He did not want to believe in a universe that had a beginning, despite everything that pointed to that very possibility. It has been proven that the universe is continually expanding, which means it had a start. It is not infinite in the reverse.
Do I believe there is a god..yes.
I love quantum physics, the string theory, black holes etc.
But to me the simplest answers are in the beauty of nature. I raise orchids, and various exotic flowers. Have you ever looked at a passion flower?...it is spectacular. The scent is captivating.
Animals to me are also special. Have you ever watched a race horse, or been an owner of a special pedigreed dog.?
I also collect Agates.....and butterflys.
None of the above in my opinion are by chance....They are gifts from god.
This small section of the earth is not just by chance. There was a designer.....no question in my opinion..
