The Edge of Everything

from Plausibly Live - The Dave Bowman Show · host Dave Bowman

Somewhere around 13.5 Billion years ago, something happened that began the path to where we are today. I know that, like abortion, that debate is something that I will not change your mind about, nor will you change mine. The "Big Bang" is certain in my mind, because it is the BEST scientific theory* fitting the observed facts. The recent release of the new photographs from the James Webb Space Telescope are nothing short of breathtaking. And they are reminder of what I have come to believe - that I do not need faith to tell me that there is a G-d. I need faith to tell me that in all of this I matter in any way shape or form. And these days I find myself wondering more than ever, does it matter? *Don't send me your eMails about "it's just a theory." Go look up the word in a dictionary  first.
