I love Brian Swimme and Thomas Berry's term "Flaring Forth" so much more than the Big Bang. Everything is still in the process.
 
Jann McGuire aka laurelcg (I wrote poetry for a time under the name Laurel (green, juicy, spicy) Clare (my actual middle name, for clarity) Griffin (my grandmother's maiden name and a powerful mythological animal. Actually wrote a newspaper column under that name for a year. Sorry if the e-mail address is confusing, but it's been the same since the start of the list serve.)

When it was that we decided science defined   boundaries rather than point to the vast unknown of knowledge is itself a   display of human folly. The Big Bang, like the Flat Earth theory, served its   purpose in its time.  Now, new data expands our horizon and we are   thankful, as our ancestors were, I am sure, in their time's breakthroughs.   


  
Thanks Laurel and Jack for your reminders of our continuing appropriation   of our human faculty of thought.

For all that was, thanks;   for all that will be, yes; for all that is,   amen!
