It is "simply" this or that

The scholastically brainwashed pompous are always ready to brainwash others into a “simple” belief in the nature of reality. If what we call “reality” is determined by the extent to which our senses are developed then there most probably is nothing whatsoever simple about it. To say there is no God and all that exists is the byproduct of ‘simple’ evolution and random chance occurrences implies that the person making the statement understands all the mysteries of the universe that go into the making of a single blade of grass.

DO YOU FULLY UNDERSTAND ALL THE MYSTERIES THAT GO INTO THE MAKING OF A SINGLE BLADE OF GROWING GRASS?

If you do not then I feel you should not be too eager to place your ‘time is simply’ this or ‘there is no God. It is simply’ that on any of this unfathomable mystery that is known as ‘creation’.

I was amused by a special PBS program that had created segments on the life of Charles Darwin. The scenery, costumes and acting were very well done. As they would shift back to modern times they would explain how the theories of Darwin apply to our modern understanding of ‘the evolution of life on Earth’. They would speak of creation in the same basic way religious believers do except they would substitute the words ‘evolution’ ‘random chance’ and other such phrases wherever religious people would use the word ‘God’.

Here is how this silly atheistic observation basically goes:

‘There were many creatures in the jungles of Africa millions of years ago. One of those creatures thought (without thinking) that it would be nice to have a long neck so that it could eat the vegetation at the tops of trees. So with no conscious or subconscious effort or knowledge on its part it ‘just so happened’ to “evolve” a long neck and is now known as a “giraffe.” Why didn’t many other herbivores in the African jungle “evolve” long necks? Because without thinking they just never thought about it.’

‘There is no God! Atoms and molecules just so happened to “evolve” over millions of years and just so happened to produce Leonardo DaVinci, Mozart and the other great geniuses of human history. There is nothing supernatural about it! It is all a matter of simple random chance occurrences!’

I say there are indeed greater things in Heaven and Earth than are even dreamt of in all the combined philosophies of the human race since it first began to record its history in writing. Take care before you place the label of “simple” on the concept of time or any other aspect of creation. The entire universe may very well be laughing at you behind your back and right in your face as you do so.
