Talk Back 77

Kristine:
I think another perspective on explosions will help your thought process.
An explosion causes destruction much like a fire, a flood or even a glacier receding. In the wake of each is a powerful and beautiful resurgence of life in many forms. Both the destructive event and the appearance of life that follows are the results of the laws of physics and chemistry.
In fact, everything in the universe happens according to these laws, the laws of nature. Just because we can’t currently explain how something happens doesn’t mean it can’t be explained.
I suspect that someday science will be able to explain how life comes to be. A scary thought is that science may gain the ability to duplicate the event, but that is for another discussion.
