Stars
Thursday, August 31 | Filed in:

"I have read that beyond our own solar system, beyond our own galaxy, there are some 100 million galaxies—each containing more than 100,000 million stars. These numbers are incomprehensible. We can pass them around and write them down on flash cards, memorize them to appear smarter, but we can't ever really grasp that kind of size. The size of that kind of universe goes beyond our ability to know. It follows that God must be similarly sized. 'What is man that you take thought of him,' the ancient songwriter sang. When peering out at the stars, it seems like a good question."
