Yes.  To the question of why is the world here religion answers, &quot;Because God created it.&quot;  But no religion deals with the obvious follow up question, &quot;Then who created God?&quot;  That question is not allowed in the religious framework.  Science does not allow for such questions, either, but doesn&#x27;t purport to answer the final question of why the world exists.<p>So do we go with religion, invent God, and take satisfaction in child-like explanation of why the world exists?  Or do we go with science and merely acknowledge the mystery of what we humans are unable to fully understand (i.e., the world).
