"we live in a preposterous universe", says cosmologist Sean Carroll....
You wonder, then, why scientists have such a problem with religion. Why is one brand of incredulity better than another?

You know, that is exactly what I was thinking when reading this article. It speaks to an infinite universe. If scientists are fully capable of believing in the concept of the infinite, then why would the concept of an infinite creator be so hard for some of them to swallow? Infinite universe is a difficult concept to wrap one's mind around, just as is the concept of an infinite God. Why one would be an acceptable concept and the other not, is beyond my mortal comprehension.
"There is a theory which states that if ever anybody discovers exactly what the Universe is for and why it is here, it will instantly disappear and be replaced by something even more bizarre and inexplicable. There is another theory which states that this has already happened."
