New Light from Black Holes?

Latest news in the Physics world is a new particle accelerator set to go online in Switzerland. Some speculate the capacity to mimic nature’s black holes in miniature, along with investigation of physical particles in sizes 10 times smaller than we have ever been able to study before. While a bigger accelerator under construction was abandoned several years ago in the US because of escalating cost overruns…who knows…it might be a threshold event that could open the door to ever more interesting aspects of the universe we live in.
The limits of present investigative tools have been discussed by many, in regard to the limits of our analysis of the building blocks of the created order. As we study the heavens above and the most minute of particles, we are again confronted with the amazing complexity and order associated with this physical world we share.
As I read the book of Proverbs, I am reminded of our reasons for praise, in the wonder of God’s gifts to each of us and the bounty of His wisdom revealed in every new insight.
In the words of Wisdom, (from Proverbs 8:22-31 NIV): “The Lord brought me forth as the first of his works, before his deeds of old; I was appointed from eternity, from the beginning, before the world began. When there were no oceans, I was given birth, when there were no springs abounding with water; before the mountains were settled in place, before the hills, I was given birth, before he made the earth or its fields or any of the dust of the world. I was there when he set the heavens in place, when he marked out the horizon on the face of the deep, when he established the clouds above and fixed securely the fountains of the deep, when he gave the sea its boundary so the waters would not overstep his command, and when he marked out the foundations of the earth. Then I was the craftsman at his side. I was filled with delight day after day, rejoicing always in his presence, rejoicing in his whole world and delighting in mankind.”
