Paul Simons; "Afterlife"

Even Paul Simon who’s not religious and does not practice his Judaism, ponders the big questions of our place in the ever expanding universe. Are we really just an accident the result of a very very long period of mutations , dripping chemistries, lightning and stagnant ponds? How can one fully accept the post modern view of a heartless evolution resulting in us and our world when in our heart of hearts we intuitively know that the miracle of a baby born only nine months after two people fall in love and make love is a wondrous and much deeper reality of consequence than a false stack of facts that scientists would have us believe. There is a signature in the cell as Stephen Meyer wrote and it is God’s, whether you can see it or not doesn’t eliminate it. Science knows things only within its limited scope but there is so much more beyond its arrogant nearsightedness. Paul Simon senses this even though intellectually he’s a postmodern man.
