Hi Jerry, lets do a thought experiment: Look at you hand. What is it composed of? Skin,arteries,viens, nerves, bone, connective tissue. What is that stuff made of? Protiens,cells,minerals,water. And take that concept further what are those things composed of? chemical elements Hydrogen,Carbon,Nitrogen, .....and what are those composed of?
arrangements of atoms. and what are atoms composed of? proton,electron,nucleus. And what are those things composed of? subatomic particles, quarks, mesons,bosons,leptons etc..and what are those composed of? Electromagnetic wave packets? Energy? and what is that composed of? can you see it? smell it? taste it? where did it come from? How is it manifested into reality? Whether you believe it comes from God or nature what difference does it make? The simple fact remains that the universe exist. Some believe it was a creator some believe it is a quantum fluctuation that manifested a tremendous amount of energy and caused the universe to begin to unfold. Just because man at this time can not say HOW or why the event took place does not mean it was not God or that it WAS God. If you want to believe it was God then that is groovy, but realize many simply do not attribute this phenomenon to a diety. Many Scientific types do not believe in the supernatural. Something did come from something, but just what exactly fills that gap science does not pretend to know as of yet..that they leave to religion to speculate. *edit typo.
