How it’s made

Did you know that each engine of the Boeing 747-8 is attached to the wing using only 8 bolts? Yeah, I know, they should use more bolts, right? Like 50. At least, that’s how many I would want. Anyway, don’t be too impressed that I know that interesting little tidbit. I only know it because I recently watched a You Tube video on the manufacturing process of the Boeing 747-8. Quite an interesting little video. I like to watch things like that sometimes. Anything with aviation especially piques my interest.

The world we live in naturally piques our curiosity, and seeing the environment we live in automatically causes us to wonder how things came into being. When it comes to man-made items we look at them and wonder how the builder put it together. We like to learn about the process because much of it doesn’t seem possible. There’s even a TV show called, How it’s made. Each episode of this series will pick a certain product and go through showing you each step of the manufacturing process. Some items are more complex than you would think, other items aren’t as complex as you would think, and some items you just wished you hadn’t learned ‘How It’s Made’. Stay away from the ones on meat-packing. Just FYI.

But when it comes to our natural environment, we still have the same question and ask ourselves, “How did that come into being?” Looking at all the trees, foliage and wildlife—it all seems to have an order to it. They all replicate after themselves. It’s not random and it happens to be very complex. Science explains for us how a lot of things in nature operate and function. It gives us a pretty good approximation of how all the biological processes work. It does a pretty good job of this. But science sometimes goes one step further and also tries to explain how all these things came into being. This is where it struggles a bit. What science can accurately do is explain things that have already come into being, but it can’t really explain how it came into being.

I think what good science recognizes is that there also limits to its understanding. As hard as they may try, there are still a lot of phenomena that it can’t explain. Some would like us to think they can, but it’s all just really theory. When science does this—if you call it science—what they are really trying to do is explain our universe within the parameters of natural forces alone. They don’t want this world we know to have to be explained by any external input. They would like it to not only be self-sustaining, but also self-creating. But there really is too much evidence that would contradict that idea. There is too much order for it to align with that notion, and there is too much complexity for it to align with that notion. The fact of the matter is, the ‘How It’s Made’ is still beyond our human understanding.
