[QUOTE="Per Søvik, post: 66612, member: 1285"] Re: You're welcome. Allthough quite fundamental to our existence, I think it is also one of the most absurd questions that can be asked. "Why" is also somewhat ambigous, are you asking "How did it come about?" or "What is the pupose?"? Assuming purpose implies religion of some sort, so that leaves the "How" for philosophy and science. Pondering why the universe decided to exist is not something I would like to spend my time doing. This distinction can not be made between science and pseudoscience, ideological science and what have you. There are so many examples of what we like to think of as bona fide science spending years and dollars in the pursuit of evidence to support already formed theories. Recent experiments at CERN being a prime example. [/QUOTE]
