We started today having a look at this information on the potential discovery of the Higgs Boson - a particle that existed in abundance at the creation of the universe and, so the theory goes, the particle that gives mass to energy, in other words creating "something from nothing", a rather novel thing indeed! And an appropriate point to interject into conversations about our origins in a religious context. There were so many astounding and insightful comments from our class on this topic.
We had a brief introduction to Christianity today and some points to note include the origins of Christianity in Judaism, the birth of Jesus Christ in around 4-3 BCE and his subsequent crucifixion about 30 years later. We made strong parallels between Judaism, Christianity and Islam.
