deep thoughts

methinks about the concept of god whilst folding bulletins today, and I think that i have a rrived at a logical conlusion. People ask "if god exists then why does he let bad things like war and poverty happen," and "If god wants us to love him then why does he not make it known that he exists?" I think i may have an answer. God does not want us just to love him, he wants us to have faith and love him based on that faith. that is why things like war and poverty happen and that is why he does not make it widely known that he exists. One of the first things that comes to mind when you think about the judeo-christian God is the saying "god is love," and if this be true then god exists between each and every human; in addition, god then, is something intangible and there cannot be any evidence that he exists other than the love between human beings for each other.

Another reason why god cannot be proven is the the infinate amount of questions that there are to be answered. Science attempts to uncover the mechanical nature of the universe and everything in it, but with every answer more questions are raised. for example the origin of life is attempted to be explained by the theory of panspermia which states that organic molecules such as proteins and nucleic acids arrived on earth via a foreign object such as an asteroid. If this is indeed the case then how did the organic molecules form? where did they come from? how did they get on said foreign object? where did this foreign object come from? there is an unending cache of questions to be answered in the sciences.

and the moral of today's story is: always write an outline first. There is more to this story, but the end escapes me at the moment. perhaps it will some back

peace and carrots y'all
