Thank you for posting.

I have been attempting to study this very subject for quite a while now. It is a fascinating and complex topic. I continue to be amazed and humbled at how God created these laws and the universe. We have hardly scratched the surface in trying to figure it out and will probably never figure it out.

I am also stunned at the level of arrogance exhibited by atheists who scoff at the design of the universe. I’ll paraphrase — “most of it is harsh and cold and can’t sustain life so it’s hardly perfect, etc”.

An obvious Christian response to this is that this universe is not destined to be our permanent home. Our perfect permanent home exists in heaven.

It seems obvious that no one but God could possibly put together such perfect circumstances as to make life on earth possible. Certainly no man could possibly do this. Interesting reading even if I could not perfectly understand all of this.

Which ignores how that makes the universe finely-tuned for earth life, not on Neptune. And all suffering is a result of the misuse and abuse by man of good thinks and good laws the Creator gave us.
