God’s Incredible Creation
Friday, June 20th, 2008
I am currently reading the book “God’s Equation: Einstein, Relativity, and the Expanding Universe” by Amir D. Aczel, and wow is it some intense stuff. I am by no means a math expert so I am at a slight disadvantage when it goes into a lot of the heavier stuff(Non-Euclidean geometry, Quantum physics, and other stuff), but I am smart and know enough to get the gist of what is being discussed, and I must say, WOW!
My brain has been stretched reading this book then it ever has before. Just trying to wrap your brain around such problems as the size of the universe, “What’s beyond the universe?”, “Will the universe stop expanding?”, “Is Time travel possible?”, and many more thoughts and questions will make your brain stretch beyond normal thought.
All of this has just gone to show me how incredible God made the universe. 500 years ago we still thought the world was flat. 500 years before that we thought that we were the center of the universe, and 500 years before that we didn’t really have any clue as to what was beyond our view. God has created an incredibly detailed and mysterious place for us to live in.
Einstein said it best “Subtle is the Lord God, but malicious He is not.” We live in a world where we assume that our current science is the end-all-be-all and that what we hold to be truth now will still be true in the future. God has created and extremely detailed and intricate world for us to live in. I look forward to the day when I can be with Him and see this creation as he does, from the outside looking in. To see the universe as what it is small, finite, and minuscule compared with Him. It is hard to imagine now, but one day soon I will be able too.
