I Am Amazed At the Universe

An endless feast for theorists, and wild speculation for everyone else, which is all fine because it fuels and promotes deep thinking, thoughts that build like slow evolution from a mere morsel and layer into something conceivable and vital.

Of course early man gazed up at the unfettered stars and, amazed at the beauty, eventually asked the question to themselves, "Where did we come from?"

Sadly, the tragic paradox and the answer of some of those staring who built layers with little deep thinking and no actual evidence led to religion and a supreme being which along with greed has been the curse of humans and humanity.

For those of us fascinated and interested in science we are amazed at the millennia of accomplishment but we usually start and stop at the Big Bang and the 15-billion year outward explosion which we are merely visiting as a form of space dust. We write off what happened before that titanic explosion of the infinitely small as simply, "We have no idea; existence of something simply was." The discussion of that unanswerable question is something that I smile about because it is hard-written in all of us....our cosmic dust and our curiosity was spelled out long ago even before our ancestors looked up at the glitter and the wonder.

Now what would have happened if earth's climate provided ongoing gloomy clouds?
