Beautiful pictures to be seen at THIS location.

I would like to share here the text from a comment at this page. It's dealing with the statements by some of the replies praising GOD for creating this landscape ....


Grief!

Will you American fruitcakes just STOP your lunacy!
The biggest problem with our planet is nuts like you lot with “Faith” and “Belief”.
It might as well be fairies at the bottom of the garden or ants rule the Earth.
With such “beliefs” wee end up with “the only way is God – MY god – not YOUR god”.
We end up with “let’s nuke the non-believers”.
Then “Let’s get our retaliation in first.”
“An eye for an eye.”
Extremist points of view which generate distrust, hatred and ultimately killing and war.
We’ve enough problems with man’s innate qualities of greed, and the need to dominate and control
without confusing it with nutty religions.

And let’s NOT bring evolution into it.
It’s patently taken AT LEAST 14 billion years and several great extinctions to evolve into what we are – sentient animals with a remarkable capacity to think, a hard-wired facility for language and an ability to communicate.
That is in itself an immensely extraordinary thing.
If you want to believe it was all done in 4-5,000 years – fine. You’re a fruitcake.

But you can still NOT believe that and STILL believe that God created it all.
It’s NOT dependent on evolution.
If your science takes you only as far as the Big Bang event then just go on and believe your “god” triggered the Bang and all that sprang from it. And keep that thought as your provisional explanation. But even then please don’t ossify that thought. Humankind will progress, learn more and explain even more than that. Maybe not this year, decade or millennium. But eventually we will.
As the frontiers of knowledge roll on we’ll know more, though probably not ever everything.
So if you can’t cope with life without the crutch of a god-belief you will still be able to (sadly) go on believing that “god created it”.
But don’t get stuck on evolution.
It wasn’t long ago everyone believed the world was flat.
I mean just LOOK at it.
Fruitcakes of the world cast off your biblical chains.
Get a life. Understand the world.
Understand people.
Get real.
