Rocky Mountain Wallpaper…

Every now and then you catch a glimpse of something, or Someone, beyond this world, right in this world.

The Scripture is right: Romans 1:20 (ESV) …[God’s] invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made….

Stephen Hawking wrote:

The odds against a universe like ours emerging out of something like the Big Bang are enormous. I think there are clearly religious implications.

And:

It would be very difficult to explain why the universe would have begun in just this way except as an act of God who intended to create beings like us. ~Hawking as quoted by Timothy Keller in The Reason for God, p. 130.

Cathedral of Learning Wallpaper

Have you been to the Cathedral lately?

University of Pittsburgh Cathedral of LearningEsther and I grabbed a picture of The Commons at The University of Pittsburgh, Oakland, when we were down to visit someone at the hospital.

Turns out it makes some good desktop wallpaper.

Love those Pitt Panthers! Ha! I love everything Pittsburgh! Always have. Always will.  Even the Pirates. I’ve watched every winning season they’ve played in the past 17 years.
