The Peace that passes all understanding is Obviously Yours
As a friend of mine used to say ( although neither of us are Jewish )

Shalom

The greatest delusion that so called modern man
currently lives under is that our current concepts
of dimensionality, knowledge, science and technology defy and preclude any other perspective or explanation for the existence
of life on this planet and in fact the rest of the universe and even why anything has to exist at all.

One thing is sure and that is we don't know everything. Not enough to say there is no
CREATIVE force or whatever. All our knowledge is
relative to something else and we are beginning to discover that human perception does NOT perceive everything that exists.

This also means that when people say
NONSENSE to the possibility of something
they are also demonstrating their own
ignorance usually. There is more contained
in the earth and the universe and outside
of it than could ever meet the eyes\understanding of any man , woman or child. Slowly we learn a little more.

But we still don't know enough to say conclusively
that there could be no guiding force or something which holds and binds everything together.
Science has evidence for some subtle "links" which it as yet cannot put it's collective fingers
on.

The mind itself boggles at all that exists and cannot seem to accept the obviously false limitations placed on reality by orthodox science
which will not legitimise anything it does not understand or has not observed conclusively.
The mere AWESOME complexity of life which makes mans' most complex machines and undertakings look like simple childrens' toys says everything it needs to ( e.g. the chemistry inside a single cell alone ).

There is nothing wrong with the pursuit of knowledge but having knowledge will never substitute for WISDOM. Knowledge may be power
but doing something only because we can
is simply NOT wise. We see the result of this
folly of perception and application in
todays world which doesn't exactly look like
the work of rational, intelligent and wise
adult beings.

The other life on this planet actually looks far smarter and wiser than we do.

It is obvious to the thinking mind that the earth,
life and the universe are part of something far larger ( dimensionally this could be misconception but as analogy it is still valid).
Whatever we call it the whole etc must be something FANTASTIC.

Some use the word God, others not.
Remember the Apollo missions and other NASA missions where some of the astronauts had quite
an enlightened outlook on their experience.
Others took the secular and agnostic views.

Earthrise from the moon showed many astronauts
how small, wondefull, beautifull and priceless
is our home earth. How a finger could be used to hide all of humanity on the voyage to the moon.
Our planet is like a speck of lint floating in the void and must be atomic or smaller on the scale of the known universe which we are told keeps expanding , into what I would like to know ?

Life though could be everywhere in the universe
but the distances are vast and there are great barriers to interstellar\solar travel.
I keep an open mind but to my mind our current state ofm knowledge does NOT preclude the existence of an intelligent and creative force.
Those who believe otherwise are jumping the gun
as no doubt they will say also of me.

I simply say look around you and if there is any sense of wonder in you then open your eyes and see
, recognise the amazing possibilities that proliferate around you every day.

All the words you used are valid
and I simply say amen to your message.

A good choice of king and a destination worth
booking ahead for.

God bless you brother and peace be to you and yours.

regards
