Beautifully articulated

Human existence IS the most beautiful phenomenon. There is no concept of beauty without consciousness. The "vast" universe with all its wonders is only beautiful because of our existence. The vastness of it is only relative to our existence.

With our help, the universe is able to perceive themselves. The physic of the universe is out there, manifested in stars, nebulars, black holes and all these things. But at the same time its in our brain in the shape of mathematic formulars and imaginations. And our Brain is maked with the same subatomic particles. That is kind of strange.

The Creation of the Universe: Allah the Exalted said: Have not those who disbelieved seen that heaven and earth were one solid mass, whereupon We divided them and made all living things of water? Don't you want to believe? (Translation of Sura 21 Verse 30) This verse explicitly mentions the common origin of the entire universe, a fact that was only discovered about forty years ago with the help of "nuclear physics". The separation mentioned in the verse seems to refer to what scientists today refer to as the "Big Bang." Also, as the verse also mentions, all living things are made up of protoplasm, which is 80 to 85 percent water. Allah the Exalted said: Thereupon Allah turned to the sky which was (then) of (formless) smoke (or mist) and said to it and to the earth: "Come here, willingly or unwillingly!" They said: "We come voluntarily". So He (Allah) completed them as seven heavens in two times, and in each heaven He assigned its task. And We adorned the lowest heaven with lights (stars) (which are also) for protection. This is the creation of the Supreme, the All-Knowing. (Translation of Sura 41 Verse 11-12) At the time the Qur'an was revealed, the word "space" was unknown and everything above the earth was called "heaven". The word "smoke" aptly describes the primordial state of the universe, which consisted of hot, gaseous matter whose gaseous particles moved like clouds of smoke. From this matter the stars, the planets and the earth were formed. Allah the Exalted said: We have created the sky (the universe) with (Our) power, and see how We are (constantly) expanding it! (Translation of Sura 51 Verse 48) It is now a generally accepted fact that we live in an expanding universe. Allah the Exalted said: Allah is the Creator of the heavens and the earth! When He decides something, He only says, "Be!" and it is. (Translation of Sura 2 Verse 117) Allah only has to "Be!" speak to trigger an explosion (big bang). Aside from that: Black holes are characterized by three properties: 1. You are invisible 2. They pass at very high speed 3. They attract everything to themselves. It's like sweeping the sky Black holes are called "giant cosmic sweepers or vacuum cleaners" in science. Allah the Exalted said: “No! I swear by alkhunas (the unseen stars), algawar (the ones leading) Alkunas (the sweeping). (Translation of sura 81 verse 15-16) Pulsars are rotating neutron stars. Allah says in the Qur'an: By heaven and by the one who throbs (or knocks)! And what makes you know what the throbbing is? (It is) the piercing bright star. (Sura 86 verse 1-3) "Tarek الطَّارِقُ" means the one who knocks. The Arabic word "Thukb ثقب" means a hole; "Thakeb ثَّاقِبُ" means the one who makes a hole. The Qur'an describes a knocking star making a hole. Pulsars are rotating neutron stars (it rotates 30x per second!). As more matter falls into a neutron star, its mass increases, and as its mass increases, its gravity increases. But gravity is warping of space-time. A neutron star distorts space-time. The more matter falls into a neutron star, the more distortion it causes. A point is reached where the distortion would have grown so much that it caused a hole in space-time. How could an illiterate (meaning Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him) who lived 1400 years ago know that pulsars bore holes in space-time? That can only have been inspired by God, the omniscient. Supernova and Iron: One of the most important consequences of supernova explosions is that heavy elements, including iron, are thrown into the interstellar medium. Allah says in the Qur'an: And We sent down the iron. In it is strong power and benefit for the people. (Sura 57 verse 25) The use of the word "sent down" is very interesting. A look at the modern astronomical books that deal with the formation of galaxies and stars will give us a better understanding of the "let down" translation. Iron alloys were already used in ancient times, but only from meteorites, which often contain the alloy iron-nickel (Fe-Ni). Since meteorites were rarely found, items made of iron were correspondingly valuable. The Sumerians called it "heavenly metal", the Egyptians "black copper from heaven". The iron is of a strange composition. The electrons and neutrons in its atom require four times the energy potential of our solar system to be brought together. In other words, our solar system does not have sufficient structure to produce iron. Where did the iron come from then, which is found in our earth? The scientists explained this phenomenon by saying that the heavy metals in the Universe are produced in the cores of giant stars. When the iron count exceeds a certain limit, the star can no longer carry the iron and eventually explodes (this explosion is described as a "nova" or "supernova"). As a result of this explosion, meteorites containing iron are formed and scattered. They fly around the universe until they are attracted by a planet's gravitational pull. The same thing happened to the earth tens of thousands of years ago when meteorites penetrated deep into the earth's surface and which are now known as ferrous metal! In summary, supernova explosions are violent deaths of massive stars. The course of these gigantic explosions and their far-reaching consequences are very interesting. They are the only source of iron and other heavy metals in our solar system. They show the mercy of God, because without them life on earth would not be possible. At the same time, they can be seen as an incredible demonstration of divine power. As the Holy Quran says at the end of the verse where iron is mentioned: Surely Allah is the Mighty, the Glorious with irresistible power. (Sura 57 verse 25)

The second two cavemen had their eye on the same stick for their fire there was conflict among humans.

We're not peaceful plant eaters even as examples of life on earth go... we're predators, which honestly is the preferable thing to be over prey. Conflict is in our nature.

The uniting of the homosapien race only seems to come along through conflict. So until WW3 happens, aliens make an aggressive first contact, resources reach a post scarcity phase (which is close IMO), or the majority of us develop a collective omnipotence there will continue to be competition and division.

Since meteorites were rarely found, items made of iron were correspondingly valuable. The Sumerians called it "heavenly metal", the Egyptians "black copper from heaven". The iron is of a strange composition. The electrons and neutrons in its atom require four times the energy potential of our solar system to be brought together. In other words, our solar system does not have sufficient structure to produce iron. Where did the iron come from then, which is found in our earth? The scientists explained this phenomenon by saying that the heavy metals in the Universe are produced in the cores of giant stars. When the iron count exceeds a certain limit, the star can no longer carry the iron and eventually explodes (this explosion is described as a "nova" or "supernova"). As a result of this explosion, meteorites containing iron are formed and scattered. They fly around the universe until they are attracted by a planet's gravitational pull. The same thing happened to the earth tens of thousands of years ago when meteorites penetrated deep into the earth's surface and which are now known as ferrous metal! In summary, supernova explosions are violent deaths of massive stars. The course of these gigantic explosions and their far-reaching consequences are very interesting. They are the only source of iron and other heavy metals in our solar system. They show the mercy of God, because without them life on earth would not be possible. At the same time, they can be seen as an incredible demonstration of divine power. As the Holy Quran says at the end of the verse where iron is mentioned: Surely Allah is the Mighty, the Glorious with irresistible power. (Sura 57 verse 25)

​@@muromango4415 The Qur'an gets a load of stuff fundamentally wrong, so please stop shilling your ridiculous little religion... it's fucking boring.

So how was it??
