Great Architect of the Universe

"May the Great Architect of the Universe bless His gifts to our use, and whilst partaking of His benefits, make us ever mindful of the needs of others. So mote it be."

"What philosophical conclusions should we draw from the abstract style of the superstring theory? We might conclude, as Sir James Jeans concluded long ago, that the Great Architect of the Universe now begins to appear as a Pure Mathematician, and that if we work hard enough at mathematics we shall be able to read his mind. Or we might conclude that our pursuit of abstractions is leading us far away from those parts of the creation which are most interesting from a human point of view. It is too early yet to come to conclusions."

"From the intrinsic evidence of his creation, the Great Architect of the Universe now begins to appear as a pure mathematician."

"Those who are deeply religious may look at evolution not as a challenge, but as a true demonstration of the power of the Creator's ingenuity. The vastness and implications of evolution cannot simplify the sense of admiration for a creator who was able to set such a mechanism in motion. Perhaps the Great Architect of the Universe didn't bother to write every single DNA base and acid in the human genome, but that doesn't detract from his incredible intelligence."

"That of the Great Architect is a heretical idea that originated in Enlightenment modernity. It lurks in the ancient Arian heresy: Arius does not recognise the divinity of Jesus the Saviour because he sees him only as the 'Greek demiurge' who moulds formless matter. The Council of Nicaea affirms the Christian truth: Jesus is God from God, light from light, true God from true God. The Great Architect knows nothing of the Christian God who is, from eternity, pro-existence, pro-affection, Love. Incarnate presence in the life of man, it makes the believer inhabited by the Holy Spirit and the Catholic Church sacramental...The Masonic brotherhood is abysmally different from the Christian-Catholic one, because the experience of the world (affections, feelings, emotions) of a Catholic is founded on the faith of the Christian hope of the God of Jesus Christ who saves us in death: "you will never die", this is the proclamation"

"The Great Architect of the universe built it of good stuff."
