Rumniations



Take a look at the first picture- the painting. Good right? I know nothing about painting but it's got nice realistic colours, it's all in perspective and basically isn't a toilet with a dead goat sitting on it. I think most people would agree, it's nice. Oh who created it? A guy called Willard Leroy Metcalf apparently (thanks Wikipedia).

Now have a shifty at the second picture; the photo. That was taken in Switzerland a couple of years ago. It's not bad am i right? Clear sky save the dusting of cloud upon the mountaintops; snow filled heights flowing down into sparse, shocking green shrubbery. Wow. You can almost taste the air (i can even remember it.) It's beautiful right? Oh who created it? Erm actually that wasn't created, yeah no it er actually just popped out of nowhere...yeah i know funny story actually...

'Earth and the other planets in the Solar System formed 4.54 billion years ago out of the solar nebula, a disk-shaped mass of dust and gas left over from the formation of the Sun. Initially molten, the outer layer of the planet Earth cooled to form a solid crust when water began accumulating in the atmosphere.' (Wikipedia)

It may be just me, and actually i know for a fact that certainly in this country my view is in the minority - but it don't feel right somehow. It doesn't wash with me. I don't have all the answers - but i know that chance cannot explain the world i see around me. Let me know your thoughts…
