QCCQ

Quote: "We have a universe. It is a place of the most wondrous and gratifying possibility, and beautiful, too. And it was all done in about the same time it takes to make a sandwich." Comment: This quote really stood out to me because of the way it explains how everything literally happened without giving to much or too little. The information that was inferred in this quote was made to be very well understood by everyone, giving that it intended a simple message. In my understanding it was clear to me that there are various things that make up the world today, and without any of them nothing would have existed. One thing leads to another and once we realize it, there we have the world that we see everyday, growing and growing. And it really amazes me that it all happened very fast to a point where nobody can define the accuracy of the time period in which the Universe had started in. Connection: My connection to this is personal. Reading this has made me open my mind to many curiosities in life that I would like to know more about. As I was growing up I always wandered where everything came from and how everything was made, but I guess that's everyone. But as time went by I started noticing that there were certain beliefs and facts that people had of the universe. And at the time, I only believed in one certain person that could possibly ever create such a world, and that was God. And as of now I'm almost in between my beliefs and the facts researchers have came across. Question: How do the small atoms know what to form? What guides them? Do people really now why the ocean is salty? Whats the key of the start of the universe?

  1. Hey Karina whats up(:
    I agree with your connection where you said that you have always believed that God created everything but now that you have read this reading, you kind of have second thoughts. I think the same thing. It's hard to believe that atoms make up everything but yet we believe God made everything. It's interesting to know that something we read can keep us thinking.
    Good job girl!

  2. I really like your connection and comment to this quote. I also liked this quote because it gave a common action of how long it took, like everyone know how long it takes to make a sandwich and it is a lot better than saying it took five minutes.

  3. The quote you chose was awesome. I love the comparission between the universe and the making of a sandwhich. So much happened after the Big Bang, but it happened in such a short period of time, (apparently the approximate amount of time it takes to create a "sandwhich"), but none the less your analysis and quote itself made me personally think more of our Earth and the fundamental foundations, mathematically and scientifically.
