16. Is it possible?
Edited on Wed Oct-11-06 11:10 AM by peanutbrittle
Is it possible that the Earth in the context and a member of the ever expanding universe is a freak accident of that evolutionary universal process? Or is there something more?

The revelations, through the history of man in Science and Nature seem to dictate a mechanical evolutionary process in which the laws are set in stone. The complexities of these laws and processes are slowly being discovered through time. The mere existence and interaction of chemical elements in Science seem, to me, to point to evidence of there being something more. Over time there will be more discoveries in Science which will add to the human elements understanding of the complex nature of the universe.

The beauty in nature seems, to me, to be evidence of there being something more. Every time I look at a flower or my pet dog or cat I think of those as being a gift to humans. (Of course my opinion or belief)

If you believe then you have to believe that Earth was created as a nursery for humans who are apparently "created a little bit higher than the angels" but that we are still in our infant form until passing on from this earth to the next stage of being, a transformation of our material energy into a more spiritual type of light or universal energy as well as continuing our journey on to a next world of learning and acquiring the complex laws of the universe. For, "In my fathers house there are many mansions."

It is very difficult for me to not believe that within the huge universe that there are more worlds such as earth nor other elements so as far unknown to man that it would totally blow our minds if known at this stage of material existence.

For me, it is not hard to find it very plausible that there are laws of the universe that we, as material infant humans could not begin to understand, nor are we ready to receive that complete understanding and knowledge of all things universal.

Just some personal thoughts
