I dare say nobody TRULY KNOWS. simply put, nobody can either confirm within reason (given a broad latitude for hypothesizing) or deny without a doubt (having digested largely corroborated evidence that support such hypothesis) that God exist. what we have are collateral pieces of evidence that suggest or form a good portion of our "opinionated" notions of God and the Universe. but hey! who is this mere algae of creation to dare venture into this realm of thought

Doubt is faiths friend. The real enemy of faith is FEAR.

I take this to mean that you saw the meaning in the story? If you did, then please expatiate.

Deep Sight:

^^ Yes.

Why something instead of nothing?

Who says there must be nothing?
