More Bryson...

In this chapter, “The Lonely Planet” of the book A Short History of nearly everything, Bryson discusses the many different ways that the Earth is so small. He explains really how small the chances of a habitable Earth existing are. For me this really affirms my belief that God created the Earth. It seems that, the chances of our Earth existing are so small that I believe that the only way it could exist is through the power of a greater being, God. It also puts it in perspective how small and unimportant our planet is. It is really hard to imagine how big the universe is when the only thing we can see is what is right in front of us. Earth is so tiny but it seems so big from our view.
