Hi Davis,

The way I’ve looked at this for some time is that when anything is in the process of design; there are going to be problems until completion. The universe is not a complete product; and therefore unfortunately natural disasters and disease is inevitable. Due to the nature of nature (so to speak); I’m not so sure if we can ever be at a point to say “Ok the universe is done now”. I believe it is an ongoing process.

Mmmm…I think you might have to iron out a notable kink here. On one hand…completion is on its way…but on the otherhand…we can never say the universe is done. Do you mean that even after completion the universe continues in an ongoing process or are we at a state of ROCK AND ROLL when completion arrives?
