GLEISER, Marcelo. Cosmic metaphysics: Being versus Becoming in cosmology and astrophysics. Herv. teol. stud. [online]. 2017, vol.73, n.3, pp.1-9. ISSN 2072-8050. http://dx.doi.org/10.4102/hts.v73i3.4713.
This article offers a critical discussion on the question of the existence of the Universe, starting with creation myths of a variety of different cultures and ending with cutting-edge ideas from modern cosmology. Emphasising the polarised tension between Being and Becoming and its religious and philosophical origins, this article argues that this tension is unavoidable and still very much present. Further, the logical insolvability of the problem of the First Cause is examined, showing the conceptual inappropriateness of current scientific models that claim to offer a solution.
