My own working assumption of why we are here is that we
are here as local-Universe information-gatherers and
that we are given access to the divine design
principles so that we can therefrom objectively invent
instruments and tools -- e.g., the microscope and the
telescope -- with which to extend all sensorial
inquiring regarding the rest of the to-the-naked-eye-
invisible, micro-macro Universe, because human
beings, tiny though we are, are here for all the
local-Universe information-harvesting and cosmic-
principle-discovering, objective tool-inventing,
and local-environment-controlling as local Universe
problem-solvers in support of the integrity of
eternally regenerative Universe.
