Unanswered Questions

Is there wisdom of the ages?
Thoughts many on ancient pages.
More than one interpretation.
Choose big bang or God's Creation!

For Julie-Michelle's contest "Unanswered Questions"

Many purport to know the answer however we lack eye witness account, so each belief requires an act of faith.

Hi Richard, such a thought-provoking question. There are many great questions in this world and so many require that leap of Faith. It is always strange how science always wishes to find a real reason for everything. Sometimes there are no rational answers to questions. I have to admit, I look for rational reasons for many things but I can also take the leap of Faith on occassion. Sometimes, even in science one must start looking for answers by taking that leap of Faith. Excellent write Richard

Very cool. I always thought god works in mysterious ways so why is it hard to think evolution and science are just part of that

Christianity is not anti science, the more you look into science, more amazing things about God’s creation are revealed. One of Christ’s first followers was a man of science. I would imagine they had some great conversations. Thanks for adding your thoughts, I like the way you think.

Very well put my dearest friend, Richard! Opinions of men are just suppositions born out of observation of the world but the truth is innate within God's creation! Good luck my friend!
