There is much ‘truth’ in ‘religion’ and there is much ‘truth’ in science. Neither are completely correct, or understood.

Those who immerse themselves in a study of both often find many parallels and correlations.

In a way, the quantum foam is mentioned in Genesis. There is actually little difference between the ‘creation’ described in Genesis and the Big Bang / Resulting Expansion ‘theory’.

Both are attempts to explain the ‘unknown’ and may be beyond our ability (at least right now) to comprehend.

We (making an assumption here) have ‘faith’ in science to explain the ‘natural’, and ‘faith’ in a religion to explain the supernatural.

And yet... there really may be no difference between the natural and supernatural, other than our ability to ‘comprehend and prove’.

Your statement brings to mind this following verse, spoken when Paul was preaching to the learned Greeks:
Remember what the apostle Paul said....” For in Him we live and move and have OUR BEING, as certain of your own Poets have said, For we our also His offspring..” Acts 17:28

We “HAVE our BEING”....not just illusory consciousness as some Zen Buddhists would try to argue. (”or not” tee hee!).
