Faith

"I believe in God, the Father almighty, maker of heaven and earth, of all things visible and invisible....." Thus begins the Nicene Creed, which is professed by Catholics around the world whenever attending Mass. It is the creed that delineates the central beliefs of Christianity as interpreted by Catholics, but which are essentially the same tenets as those held by all Christians, no matter what denomination they belong to. God is the creator of all things, and therefore all things are sacred. Life is sacred. At some point in time life itself was created. Not life from life, but life from NO life. Most religions have this belief at their core, not just Christianity. Nevertheless, scientists are searching for what they call the God Particle, which would explain how life could come from no life, but so far they haven't quite discovered it. The last I heard was that they were zeroing in on some magnetic field through which passing particles change from no life to maybe life, but only because they think it might be so, not because there is any actual evidence.  It sometimes amazes me that people will go to such lengths to try and prove that there is no God, but then, there are apparently many people who think that they are the greatest example of life, that there is no greater, that everything that can't be explained scientifically must have happened by chance. Why not by God?Why not a physical world and a spiritual world? Humans are such egotists.Various theories of evolution, while imperfect, do not of themselves preclude or contradict the existence of a Divine Creator, since all life must have at some distant time in the past, not existed at all, and yet, here we are. What a puzzle.

Humans built this church, but they did it for God
