How Real is Reality?

Atoms are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
Protons and neutrons are each comprise d of three quarks,
and they are 99.999999999999% space.
Think about that next time you step outside,
terra firma isn't so firm after all! It's nearly all space!

All ordinary matter is made up of just two kinds of quarks plus electrons.
Trillions and trillions of neutrinos flow through as well,
but they are extremely small and hardly interact with other matter.
they pass through the earth and your body without even hitting a single thing.

Then the four known “force” carriers in the universe:
electromagnetic, the strong force, the weak force, and mysterious gravity.
They pass a force between particles
which, for example, creates the existence of gravity and light. 

I am utterly amazed at both the simplicity of our created universe,
and the complexity and mystery surrounding it.
It is also incredible to realize the implication that the Creator
Must somehow fully understand the complexity of our universe,
and manage it through these simple means.


Lord, our Lord, how majestic is your name in all the earth!
You have set your glory above the heavens.
--David, Psalm 8
