Subject: I was thinking about the universe again...
...and as a firm believer in science and logic, I believe all mysteries of the universe have a scientific and logical explanation. Whether or not the extent of human intelligence and intellectual capacity can comprehend these so-called vindications to the full magnitude may be in question, and frankly, I doubt it. All things considered, this is what I believe.

All matter consists of particles. Galaxies, nebulae, systems, planets... us. Amid these finite particles is infinite space, but space does not affect these particles, other particles do. All of these particles contain energy that cannot be created nor destroyed, and thus the universe of particles is in eternal motion. But the motion of these particles is judged by none other than the motion of other particles. That is the universe. If some impossible (yet in this case hypothetical), singular mind could somehow comprehend the location and velocity of every particle in the universe, all of the past and future could be determined. But notwithstanding, this is impossible.

But what of the greatest mystery of the universe? All science points to the human brain, the human consciousness, as an anomaly of science itself. It cannot be explained by our science, and thus, many believe it can never be explained by our science, and from this belief many religions are based... the concept of the soul and the supernatural. But I think of this and wonder... "our science..." is this simply an element beyond the boundaries of our current level of comprehension (I say current because this may not always be true)? I believe it is, and I believe that our mind, just as everything in the universe, is simply particles in motion, and thus the hypothetical yet impossible mind can predict this and the future as well. But enough of this mind; it does not exist and can never exit. Or does it? Is it God? God... is supernatural. And while I don't believe that elements beyond explanation can exist, the supernatural may very well be something beyond human comprehension... beyond me.

Which brings me straight back to the beginning. How will we ever know if there are elements of our universe and our existence beyond science and logic if we simply cannot comprehend the extent of what can be explained? That is impossible...
And thus the world continues to move forward, and mankind continues to search for a meaning in existence. Is there a meaning to our existence? Or are we simply just... particles in perpetual motion...

I need a Red Bull; can't you tell? ;)

then again, is it really being explained if we can't comprehend the explaination?

Well no. My point is that if we can't explain it, who's to say it cannot be explained?
