Theories on Creation

I wish I had the answers,

But the questions are so huge

When we theorize the origins

And try to break them down.

As the Prophets wrote in ancient time

Dispelling doubt with testament,

The words of God sent from on high

To call on all humanity.

We toe the line believing

There is something after, something more,

Something worth behaving in polite society;

Whether it be need for Heaven

Or the fear of living Hell,

Or just a need for some small piece of immortality.

Scientists would have us think that

It all started with a bang,

That the universe expands in ways

We cannot truly understand;

That someday far into the future,

In time we cannot measure, it

All will come collapsing in a hurried timeless rush.

And Mister Darwin tells us that

We climbed down from the trees.

That we are ever changing,

That the future will evolve,

And a hundred generations hence

Will look at us and wonder

How Humanity survived

With all its questions unresolved.
