How the universe, especially earth is governed? - Inspired by 'Q' from Star Trek
2007/09/16,07:20

Today, a few hours ago, I enjoyed watching 'Death Wish', an episode in Star Trek which featured the characters 'Q' of the continuum, who possess seemingly omnipotent power.

In one of the scenes, a character ( one Q ) pleads for his mortality in a hearing while the other reasons that the requestor be not granted his wish. To justify his stand,he brings three characters from Earth, one of which is Newton. Newton identifies the Q ( the requestor ) as the man who shook the apple tree (yes, the famous apple tree incident) which helped Newton formulate his theory on gravity.

Right after watching this episode,I started thinking about how the universe, especiallt earth is governed. Other than the orderly motion of the earth and the amazingly surprising sustenance of life with all its dependencies with the environment, would there be any forces, who do not wear an uniform and who we do not see, be having any special interest or a duty in assisting nature?

Looking at the orderliness of the universe, earth and the raw human mind with inorderly tendencies, I tend to believe that there must be some forces guiding or helping the human mind to route its creative capacity to evolution. Or Is the mind itself that force?

The funniest and probably a true idea that popped in my mind is that the induction of human beings on earth is what necessitated a 'governing' body other than or derived from Nature.

Intriguing! Especially my questions on this subject yield further questions and keep my mind fresh. This leads to further quest for information.

Thanks to www.spaceandmotion.com for the image. The site is fantastic with interesting material on the subject matter and various others.
