How did the world come into existence? Are we here for a purpose? These are the two Big Questions that are pertinent in human minds and have been made more controversial with the development of science along with religion.

Science derives theoretical explanation of phenomena based on experimental evidence; therefore many aspects of religion, which are usually more abstract, are rejected by science. The fundamental debate traces back to the question of whether there is God at all.

However, let’s suppose that with the perfect calibration of physical laws and constants for the survival of present life forms (regardless of the possibility that a different life form may still evolve in a different condition), that God really did invol

Human perception is actually a very interesting phenomenon and worth looking into since it relates directly to our understanding of appearance and reality and the veracity of our long-held beliefs. What we can believe in and comprehend is often only shaped by what we can perceive and experience, although we are aware of the deception of human sensations. For example, a special arrangement of lines may appear to be curved; or, if our fingers have been dipped in ice water for a period of time, when we move our fingers immediately to a cup of hot water, it will appear warm instead of burning hot. Therefore, can we deny the possibility of living in a matrix, that everything is but a dream?

I feel that many of the attempts in understanding God show that we, as human beings, has tried too hard and has almost debase God to become human, as if that we thought we can totally comprehend what is in God’s minds. This reminds me of Karl Barth’s argument that our knowledge of God must come from God by way of revelation, not by way of natural theology- human beings can only make analogies but they can never reach God, because of our analogies may only be our own reflections, the hypostatization of our thoughts and speech. I believe that if God works according to His elaborate planning and flawless designs, then God’s nature, His existence, will certainly not be limited to what is familiar to us with our own limited experience in this one small corner of the universe.
