If the universe or matter always existed and will always exist, however would we ever reach today?<br /><br />Hence we believe in beginnings. Be that Fred Hoyle's "Big Bang", Georges Lemaître's "primeval atom" or the Quran's "mass all sewn up". <br /><br />Where did this creator get his materials from? These are the same questions cosmological physicists ask about the self-directed universe. Hence the models they construct to attempt to explain what might have happened billons of years ago and onwards.<br /><br />How is it that the first amino acids came into existence and survived long enough and in a large enough quantity to evolve into simple lifeforms in the first place?<br /><br />None of this is simple. That is why we undertake research and dedicate our lives and even multiple generations to it. Theologians may simplify with generic explanations. Physicists take the long road, in an attempt to answer the same questions.<br /><br />What the heck is a quark? What is a quantum? Some people might give you a very simple answer, others may take a lifetime to explain it to you, and it still might make no sense to you. Neither approach necessarily means that a quark does not exist.<br /><br />On any journey of discovery, you have to be prepared to take the long road. There are no easy answers because these are not easy questions. Nobody said it was simple.<br /><br />Is your eye simple? Are the cells in your body simple? Is mitochondria simple? Are diplomonads simple? Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
