[telescope115]

You have explained this so that even I can understand it. For that I thank you.

When I first looked through a telescope I never thought I would be pondering astrophysics and cosmology. I just enjoy looking through it, but one can’t help but ask questions, and that’s what we do.

For me, for now, God will suffice. But, He did give us brains, but we don’t have enough information to solve the problem because we don’t have access to that information. We can’t reach it right now.

The Answer Is Out There.

For me, for now, God will suffice.

I can give you lots of topics where, for me, God is the only logical, rational answer. And I fully believe He created the universe. It's just that I believe he set in motion 'laws' of physics and let them do most of the work.

One of my little analogies is this: Suppose you are a cow and you see a car drive by. Small manipulations of the wheel and gas pedal make the car go exactly where the driver wants it to go, but to a cow there is no visible control. It just goes.

We are created in God's image, and since we use mechanisms (rather than brute force, like animals) to accomplish what we want, it seems logical and rational to me that God would set mechanisms in place to accomplish His will. And - like the cow - we may not be able to perceive the manipulations that cause His will to be done, but they're still there.
