Being a Christian I believe in creation, but I don’t disapprove evolution. I may not know where it all began but I believe the natural systems of the cosmos are meant to complement each other and more so for the benefit of the most powerful and intelligent creature, the Man. Man has in his hands also the will power to make the universe a better place or destroy it altogether.
I’m not an atheist, and I’m not religious either, but I have volunteered and studied a bit of Sufism at the Chisholme Institute in Scotland, and I find that it really resonates with me. I believe that there is more to the universe than humanity, and that humans aren’t the most powerful and intelligent beings. Perhaps I believe more in nature itself. I don’t think anyone in particular made the universe but I think life exists in order for the universe to be known.
I’m definitely on the side of the big bang theory – however before that is a huge unknown! I’d recommend reading ‘How to build a universe’ by Robin Ince and Brian Cox to understand what we do know.
One of my favourite quotes is “we are all made of star stuff” 🙂
