The Ooh.

Something funny happened the other day. I was in physics class, and the teacher was going on about the difference between mechanical and electromagnetic waves in terms of propagation through medium, when it hit me. If sound was electromagnetic, the sun would have made us all go deaf. This can't be a coincidence, can it? Are we that important? How the little things may have been manufactured to preserve our existence, is it divine providence? The irony lies in the fact that physics is doing what religion failed to do, for a split second there, it made me go ooh.

That's because you don't view science as a way to know religion. And you don't view religion as a way of seeing the world (or so I gathered from what I read).You learned that fact and you related it to laws of physics which are only the human interpretation of the way he universe works (if such a thing will ever be fully reached). I learned that and marveled at the creation of God Who took care of even the slightest details.
It's all about the way you view things.
