The Eternal Circle of Time

Paper Summary:

This paper attempts to suggest an answer to the question of governance in the universe. It looks at what may seem to be a hierarchical order of "Cause and Effect", which sees every event as the result of a previous one and at the same time the cause of another event. As we go further back into the very beginning it appears that "Time" itself is the essence of it all.

From the Paper:

"While not a popular theory among modern historians and philosophers, the idea of the Great Chain of Being does offer an explanation for the harmonies and interrelationships that exist within the universe. Nothing can occur without a prior cause, and each preceding event is the reason for the following event. . . Therefore, there must be an overall order, an overall rhyme and reason to the universe and all that is contained within it. Time does indeed have a purpose, and its purpose is the eternal cycle of birth, development, and regeneration."
