Mark,

No the universe does not really look as perfect as we
ourselves sometimes think we as a species are. (At
least the "Man Centered Universe" idea ended centuries
ago).

And as science is predictiong, meteorites, asteroids,
and comets can really put a dent in the notion that
Man is the center of all things. The universe at
large is far from perfect in our eyes... It is in a
constant state of slow motion chaos. And Man himself
is also in a much higher and faster state of conflict
and chaos.

As for God, Man cannot prove or disprove. But there
are revelations, visions, and dreams.

This year, I have had all three. We are all going to
die, some soon, some later. I had an NDE when I was
in the hospital on my death bed, locked in that weird
coma state. What I "saw" opened my "eyes" even though
theoretically I could not see anything were I was at
the time.

I now realize that my whole perception of the concept
of God has been altered by the experience.

God does exist.

I can't prove it, but I can, in this very chaotic
life, live true to what I know... Even though I know
that all my efforts will not win me or gain favor with
God.

God exists, and I know that all of us will someday
come to know that even if we don't believe it now.

And I think that we will know the questions to all
things, and not have to concentrate on such questions
then as we do now.

BTW: I have quite a few questions about meteorites,
and I will have quite a few more when that final day
comes. I also have a question that I would love to
ask God, so I keep in in my mind now, so that I
remember to ask it when I get there.

Why nerves in teeth that do not heal, but when they go
bad, they really hurt...Never to heal. You did it
right in sharks, why not us?

LOL!
