Life, the Universe, and Everything

1. Ex nihilo- A example of this would be the christian creation story where God created everything from nothing. That is what the word ex nihilo means in literal translation "From nothing".

2. The second creation myth can be seen in the Native American background. In this story a the muscat was the only animal that could dive to the bottom of the lake and return with soil in his hand. He gave his life to do so though.

3. In Greek mythology, a being would have to pass through 3 different worlds to finally arrive at the final place.

4. Irish myths explains how a mans leg was chopped off and life was sported from that.

5. Indian creation story told how a egg was cracked and that lead to the formation of the universe.

I think a very reasonable explanation of how our galaxy was formed would be the rotation and spinning. A "Big Bang" could have started the elements and particles in space spinning. As things started spinning faster and faster, particles would then collect in a central location. Over time that central location would form into a sun, and different solar systems.
