If God Himself Has Waited Six Thousand

We Do Not Ask For What Useful Purpose The Birds Do Sing, For Song Is Their Pleasure Since They Were Created For Singing. Similarly, We Ought Not To Ask Why The Human Mind Troubles To Fathom The Secrets Of The Heavens.

It Is A Right, Yes A Duty, To Search In Cautious Manner For The Numbers, Sizes, And Weights, The Norms For Everything [god] Has Created. For He Himself Has Let Man Take Part In The Knowledge Of These Things ... For These Secrets Are Not Of The Kind Whose Research Should Be Forbidden; Rather They Are Set Before Our Eyes Like A Mirror So That By Examining Them We Observe To Some Extent The Goodness And Wisdom Of The Creator.

If God Himself Has Waited Six Thousand Years For Someone To Contemplate His Works, My Book Can Wait For A Hundred.

Eyesight Should Learn From Reason.
