Why God?

Why God?

Science doesn't disprove God, in fact it points to God as the Mind behind the cosmos. Science shows that the human mind can investigate and interpret the material world according to patterns and laws which we can then put to use in our own creative ways. Science also shows that everything in the cosmos is interconnected and all its laws are aspects of one single law that gives everything control and direction from the very beginning. From all this we can argue that the universe is the work of an absolute and infinite Mind who creates it for a reason and a purpose. We can know and be sure about God's existence from the evidence of creation, but to know God personally and grow in relationship with our creator, we need the gift of faith given to us in Jesus Christ through the Church.
