Bible Verses discussing our beautifully created realm.
Is the earth, plants, lakes, oceans, bugs, animals, and people a massive accident? Did we come from a big boom? dust and goo? a gecko getting lucky with a monkey?
According to the scriptures and many other historical accounts, everything was created - created with a purpose. If the earth is in the center of creation and we live here, maybe somebody "upstairs" loves us?
Following the science will tell us that we're not special. To consider we are in the center of creation is a "horror" and although the hypothesis can't be disproved, it is "unwelcome".
