“We seek understanding or larger context for this existence. If we find theological models inadequate, we turn to science, whose researchers state, once again, that the universe popped out of nothingness by some unknown process. They go on to "explain" that life eventually arose equally inexplicably. And this life manifests individual awareness that itself is enigmatic.
this is the scientific explanation for what's going on.
No wonder, in many circles, that such elucidation is not regarded as superior to the old-fashioned "God did it".”
