Thanks to the advances in modern science, we have an ever increasing appreciation of just what an amazing creation our universe is. Even the knowledge that scientists and doctors continue to gather about our bodies stagger our imaginations. We see miracles repeated so many times that we take them for granted: the changes of the seasons, rain from clouds, the growth of flowers and trees, and the soil?s production of all kinds of fruit. We look around us and see the fantastic abundance of animate and inanimate life: animals, geological features, water, fish, stars, and so on.
