| I'm amazed that many cannot admit that we do not know everything there is to know about the universe we live in..Metaphysics?
I would suggest that that is why humankind sometimes resorts to religion in an effort to explain the unexplainable?
Sure evolution is a fact! But some processes are still unexplained and incomprehensible to even the scientific community? How it all began is another facet of the universe that has never been scientifically proved or demonstrated. It's still in the realm of theory? Isn't that what the term irreducible complexity refers to? We just don't know all the answers?
That is why I shudder when people start insisting on one theory or another as absolute? That is why I shudder when some rebuff religious beliefs as another explanation of the unknown? Is not religion just another avenue to the human conception of metaphysics and the sometimes unexplained series of lifes events? At this stage of our scientific knowledge much of the scientic communitities explanation of creation is still also conjecture..unproven theory?
Thus we play the fools with the time, and the spirits of the wise sit in the clouds and mock us. |
