Description
You can watch me painting this in time-lapse on YouTube: https://youtu.be/2dDoe8W_wag
For reasons which are a mystery to my religion and science are often thought of as mutually exclusive, but they really are married to each other. In order for science to exist, one must believe that truth exists and therefore believe in objective reality. For religion to be authentic it has to be about reality. So science and religion are related, but science deals with reality we can see, test, and prove through scientific method whereas faith must be sought after with the soul, with humility, and one must be prepared to experience things unseen. This is a view of the St Joseph Chapel at Santa Teresita looking up at Mt Wilson, California, where Einstein worked and where scientists first understood the immensity of the universe. The white tower is a 100 foot solar telescope. The radio antennas between the cross and the telescope make a good stand in for humanity who are searching for truth.

This could be a very interesting debate , now I am not disputing that there may be a bigger presence, however I am saying that all religions are man made, and there is a saying, religions was created at the same time as slavery so rich man can forgive themselves ! cheers
Danielle Rosaria replied:
I love it how art can engender deep discussions like this one and also show how we have such common ground on such a deep level meaning our agreement in the real possibility of a higher presence. This is a wonderful agreement. The second part of your point is where we differ and this point would take a while to debate, though I agree it would be fascinating! Cheers!

Stunning artwork, however science can also proof that religion is man made ! l/f
Danielle Rosaria replied:
Thank you so much! I respectfully disagree because the scientific method relies on the sense of sight, however the power that created us and keeps us alive is unseen and in the realm of the metaphysical. Science rather points to an ultimate beginning and unmoved mover of all things.
