7.15 Vale Crucis

The hardest question of all to answer is where did our universe come from?  If we reply that it came from somewhere else, brought to its present state by the action of the laws of physics, we need only add that somewhere else, filled with whatever was in it before it formed us and our material surroundings, to our present world.  We then ask again where did that new totality come from?  Any definite answer to our first question is the wrong one, since it would lead to an infinite chain of similar questions.  We have already specified that we are talking about everything that is material.  There can not be, and never can have been, anything else, out of which our world came.
