    It’s actually a pretty decent list of unanswered questions. The more we know the more we learn new questions.

    Like why there’s anything at all when the matter and antimatter should have annihilated itself.

    Or if there’s positive or negative curvature to space time at the (open or closed universe)

    Or what is dark matter and dark energy.

    Or unifying quantum physics with general relativity.

    And so on.

      That’s the point. It’s not accurate that we always knew how complex these were. The more we learn, the more we learn how complex these things are. The example of spiritual explanations is the most reductive and frankly that is where our understanding started. This conversation has really devolved here in typical Lemmy fashion.

          Children are typically born with no knowledge of the physical world and spiritual explanations.
          @Imgonnatrythis mentioned ‘spiritual explanations’.

        Many things were revealed to Moyses by God Himself.
        St. Paul was wrapt to the third heaven.
        Also in the book of Job, we see God speak in first person.
        Also there are prophets.
        You are marvelled at what we can do with matter. You little knowledge of what man can do with God.
        In our modern day, we had the Dancing Sun of Fatima (Our Lady of Fatima).
