We could call order by the name of God, but it would be an impersonal God. There's not much personal about the laws of physics.

I don't fear God- I fear His believers.

Many people find the universe confusing - it's not.

It would be very difficult to explain why the universe should have begun in just this way, except as the act of a God who intended to create beings like us.

I think the universe was spontaneously created out of nothing, according to the laws of science. It has no beginning and no end.

Our population and our use of the finite resources of planet Earth are growing exponentially, along with our technical ability to change the environment for good or ill. But our genetic code still carries the selfish and aggressive instincts that were of survival advantage in the past. It will be difficult enough to avoid disaster in the next hundred years, let alone the next thousand or million. Our only chance of long term survival, is not to remain inward looking on planet Earth, but to spread out into space.

We only have to look at ourselves to see how intelligent life might develop into something we wouldn't want to meet.
