Part of how we come to take command of our world, to take command of our environment, to make these tools by which we're able to do this, is we ask ourselves questions about it the whole time. So this man starts to ask himself questions. "This world," he says, "so who made it?" Now, of course he thinks that, because makes things himself. So he's looking for someone who would have this world. He says, "Well, so who would have made this world? Well, it must be something a little like Obviously much much bigger. And necessarily invisible. But he would have made it. Now did he make it?" Now we always ask ourselves "why?" because we look for intention around us; because always intend– we do something with intention. We boil an egg in order to eat it. So we look at the rocks, and we look at the trees, and we wonder what intention is here even though it doesn't intention.
