I didn't know where else to post this, but I really want to talk about it.
From a very young age, I have found the universe a subject of incredible interest. I wanted to be an astronomer for a long time, but then I realised you needed to be very smart at maths, which I unfortunately (or maybe fortunately, I don't know yet) am not.
I'm always bagged by my mates for this. But whenever it comes up in debates in class, be it in Chemisty, Theology, Religion, whatever, I have to add my two cents. For example, in Theology we were talking about science and religion. My teacher was saying that the Catholic Church now accepts a lot of scientific theories, such as evolution, the big bang and so on. Everyone else was falling asleep, but I was riveted. I put my hand up and said, "Science can explain everything from the inital 'dot' that started the universe to now, but can't explain how that 'dot' got there."
Isn't that mind-boggling?
And the existence of black holes, the whole way that they work, the fact that the gravitational pull is so strong that not even light can escape.
So many things to ponder.
Look, this thread'll probably fall in a hole but I just wanted to say I find it really interesting, and if anyone wants to chin wag with me please do!
