Blog Assignment # 2

The Chosen Topic

My chosen topic, yes that topic I will write my final paper on, is God and the Origin of the Universe. My initial thoughts I've added onto with more relative thinking. First, existence must have come from somewhere. Since "by chance" doesn't explain where anything came from and is most unlikely, then there must be a creator. The common question, then composed is who created the creator? In reply, I ask who created time? If time can exist in such a way that we cannot, then why can't the creator exist in a similar way? Also in asking this question I researched this link and ended up with another philosophical answer and the answer to my question too. Another question that would arise is, "Can't there be another way everything came into existence?" I would then answer, if there was another way, even "by chance", then something had to trigger this "by chance" because there would have to be other "chances" that would have to come about to prove that anything could happen just "by chance", speaking on the level of existence. Since there isn't any other chances that I, or science, have discovered, then I believe that we were created. To make sure I wasn't speaking just to sound right, I searched the web for "God and science" and came across this. In reading around the web page, I learned a lot about the size of the universe and the different components. Quarks and antiquarks, for example, are the particles that make up matter. What I didn't know was that out of a billion quarks and antiquarks, quarks out number antiquarks by 1, therefore, making up our universe with that 1 quark. Intriguing is it not?

Some of these make good points..some are just jokes.

I like this one because it actually covers, or uncovers I
should say, some topics brought about in our philosophy book.

I like this link because its variety in the coverage of the
universe along with its source variety.
