"Where were you when I laid the earth's foundation? Tell me, if you understand. Who marked off its dimensions? Surely you know! Who stretched a measuring line across it? On what were its footings set, or who laid its cornerstone-- while the morning stars sang together and all the angels shouted for joy?" -- Job 38:4-7

In this passage, Job is getting quite a scolding from God.  The questions of the universe fascinate us.  It seems as though we are always seeking the answers to our curiosities about the beginning of time.  The  big bang theory... creation... Adam and Eve... the Garden.  Some scientists erroneously say "there is no God" because they have found scientific evidence refuting the nature of creation as presented in Genesis.  It all didn't happen in 7 days like the Bible says, therefore there is no God.  Hmm... terrible logic.  People of faith fall into the same trap:  scientific findings don't line up with the biblical account, therefore, science is wrong.  Terrible logic again.  Questions of science should be handled in scientific discourse.  Questions of faith handled in theological discourse.  But as we seek to find truth, let's remain humble.  For neither you nor I, nor any human being was there when God created the heavens and the earth.  Remember who we are: we are not God.
