Life, the Universe, and Everything

Creation Myths
1. The Origin of Japan and her People- a deity commanded the land be created .
2.  Ojibway creation story-An animal dove to the bottom of the river to bring soil up so land could be created.
3. Greek myths, three different words that beings would pass through to create life and worlds.
4. An Irish creation story- Life came from the leg of a larger being
5. The Golden Chain-a chain is dropped and an egg is cracked resulting in Earth being developed.

All these tales start with an answer and all of these involved something supernatural and cannot be measured or proven, which refutes all the basic tenants of science.

The Big Bang Theory is reliable because the event can be measured and started with a question. The movement of the solar system leads one to concluded that all the matter in the universe came from one single point. The matter in the universe can be dated and suggests that the first form of matter was very simple and was created at the same time.
