Amazing Facts

Religions, God, god, nature. These things are so very different and seperate to me. Religion, that is organized, well, it is the opiate of the masses. God, the jury is still out on that. But nature, now that is a wonderous power. Awe inspiring and thought provoking. Guess what I'm trying to say is some people can't seperate "nature" and "god". I like to think I can.

I believe that an individual, or group of individuals are responsible for creating the universe, I just don't have any idea who.
There is too much order around us. The way things all sort of dovetail together. It can't be by chance.

So I take it you don't believe in the "chaos theory"?

chaos theory? if we subscribed to that in this case then everything would really be going wrong wouldn't it? given the complexity as to how the whole universe thing works. (please orchid, don't run circles around me on this on!)

Persoanlly, i subscribe to the 'Great Maker' - call him/her/it whatever you like....

Orchid,
I do not believe in random creation of this universe.
I am not very well versed on the chaos theory, but from what I've read about it, I do not believe there is any way that those sort of dynamics could have created such order.
I also believe that the big bang is nonsense.
Big explosion and here we are so many eons or whatever, later. No, I can't believe that.
There is just to much order to this place.
I believe that this place was meticulously designed by a being or a group of beings.
If this were true, they would have to be infinitely more powerful and intelligent than humans.
Should they be called gods ? I don't think so.
Not by the definitions I've seen.
I like the word architect, which means "master builder".
How about a "supreme architect"or group of "supreme architects" ?
By the way, I haven't found a religion that I would trust to lead me through life. I'm just trying to be as logical as I can given what I perceive.

I like your perspective, I personally believe in god, like in the christian sense but I don't call myself a christian because I don't believe in organized religion. But I like your take on things. :)

Thanks DB.

I really like this story. The universe is an amazing place, and I like the perspective and openness of your views.

Thank you, booklover.
I appreciate that.

Wonderful story. I am particularly intrigued by that idea of non-god architects. I have been wondering "why" a bit less lately, but there are so many possibilities.
