A COLLECTION OF GOOD WORDS
宇宙

Nothing in the universe is contingent, but all things are conditioned to exist and operate in a particular manner by the necessity of the divine nature.

Its limitations are those of the physical universe: it won't let you play with some really wild ideas that aren't possible, but are fun to speculate about.

KEEP EXPLORING
沿着这个主题,再读几句。
Whatever universe a professor believes in must at any rate be a universe that lends itself to lengthy discourse. A universe definable in two sentences is something for which the professorial intellect has no use. No faith in anything of that cheap kind!
无论教授所信仰的宇宙是什么,它都必须是一个适合冗长论述的宇宙。一个用两句话就能定义的宇宙,是教授的智慧所无法解释的。不要相信那种廉价的东西!
