The Greatest Architect - part 2

After performing prayers, Uge and Dewi continued their conversation in one of the parks in ITB that people rarely pass. Uge chose this place so as not to invite gossip.

"Before the curriculum discussion, can I ask something else that is a bit heavy?" ask Goddess.

"Hopefully I have enough weight to hold the weight of your questions" replied Uge.

"You're sure God exists?" ask Goddess.

Uge was surprised by this question, his face turned serious, a clever person asked the existence of God, I must be careful not to answer wrongly.

"really heavy. Sure," replied Uge.

"Reason?" ask Goddess.

"Because I studied architecture" replied Uge.

"What does this have to do with architecture?" ask the Goddess wonder.

"The universe is an amazing work, the time of no architect?" ask Uge.

"Abspiring work must be done by an architect? Behind Borobodur Temple there is certainly an architect, because the work has a regular pattern, distance, shape, size and various other indications that prove the work was born through the concept. What about Lake Toba? Although the beauty is amazing, but he does not have a regularity that makes us able to say there is an architect or creator behind him,” replied Dewi.

“Hmm, should there be regularity? What about abstract painting? But I chose to agree that there must be regularity, so that this discussion is not as difficult to understand as abstract painting. Well, does the universe have no order? In school we once learned, large objects in the universe rotate and circle the parent object, the rotation is locked on the axis, the cycle is locked on the circular line. Don't those giant balls in space have orbits? Not rolling or rolling freely like a kicked ball. Obviously there's a design there" Uge said.

"That's because of gravity" answered the Goddess.

“OK. Why plastic chess pieces can stick to the chessboard? The magnets? The answer is right! But if no chess maker had a concept of a piece that didn't slide easily or fall off the board, then the magnet wouldn't be there. So does gravity,” Uge said.

"What about the law of nature?" ask Goddess.

"Any free, would be called the law of nature, the law of the jungle or civil law. Shadow deh, just for the trivial matter of attaching chess pieces, behind him there must be someone who has an idea, make a concept and make it happen. Moreover, to make giant dead objects stick together and move regularly, if there are no drafters and concepts that make the heavenly bodies submissive, then they will move freely like a chessboard scattered into the air. Let alone without a concept, even if the long-standing concept was suddenly not adhered to for a moment, for example, the rotation of the earth suddenly deviated, then Indonesia could suddenly freeze because it shifted to the poles, Antarctica was suddenly liquid because it moved to the equator, half the earth was sunk in a tsunami. Even more horrified if the earth's orbit suddenly deviated, kebayang enggak?” ask Uge.

“It will be like a pilotless plane, if it moves towards the moon, then the moon will look to continue to grow, the sea water below it will be pulled up to be very high, so it will be very high, soon a far more powerful explosion than nuclear will end the history of mankind. It's terrible, yeah! So, the laws of nature are also part of the concept, not a matter of chance, so?” ask Goddess.

“How could it be a coincidence? There's numbers! To make the path or orbit so as not to collide with each other, of course there must be a number of coordinates written and understood by the passers. We must also often hear these numbers, the Earth rotates completely against the axis within 24 hours, circling the sun 365 ¼ days and has a movement like a head nod so it is known 4 positions that we call the season. The instructions obeyed by inanimate objects are very measurable, please just call it by the term natural law, but IT people would prefer to call it by the term program. Let alone complicated programs, even simple programs cannot be born by typing just any text,” said Uge.

The goddess looked at Uge in amazement, she felt lucky to meet this man. “We all know about gravity, orbit, rotation, revolution. It turns out that the deeper we observe the universe, the more we will find the existence of the Architect.”

“Interesting too, it turns out that knowledge is not necessarily in line with consciousness. I became more excited to invite you to observe more deeply. Bayangin deh, if you are appointed as the project head of a new campus building for ITB, what is needed?” ask Uge.

“I myself must be an expert and assisted by other experts, even from various disciplines needed. Surely there are so many things to think about and do,” said Dewi.

“Betul! Well, now shadow too, if you were appointed as the head of the earth-making project, so that it becomes a planet that can be inhabited by various creatures like today, what is needed?”  ask Uge.

“Hmm. I know you mean, this architecture must be made by the Supreme Architect, even humans who are considered the most intelligent beings, not enough knowledge to be the head of the project, let alone say the earth was created by itself. Hahaha, how do you think about being the head of the earth-making project? What else is there about mindlessness?” ask Goddess.

“The rotation of celestial objects did not experience a slowdown like a spinning top, but it has been since somehow billions of years ago, as if like a fan that was plugged into the electricity of the house. Mind you, where's naro batrenya?" ask Uge.

“Hahaha, ngeselin! Do you agree with the Big Bang Theory and the Evolution Theory?" ask Goddess.

"I'm simplifying, yeah! They say the universe started from a single point explosion, then expanded to form the universe, the Big Bang Theory. Then in one of the celestial bodies that has cooled, Earth, there is life that began from simple micro-organisms that slowly change into a variety of complex living things, the Theory of Evolution, is it?" ask Uge.

"Yes simply like that, do you agree?" ask Goddess.

"This campus is being bombed, what's going to happen?" ask Uge.

"Destroyed in a mess" answered the Goddess.

"It's not a new building, is it? Because that explosion shouldn't have been possible to produce architectural masterpieces." Uge looked at the places around them to give a more real example.

"Okay, look at this!" Uge picked up some small stones that were near them. He arranged it to form a triangle near the Goddess.

"Illuminati?" ask Goddess.

"At first the shape of the triangle has been patented them? Hehe, this is just an example, if you make a rectangle, look for more stones" said Uge.

"Not really," said Dewi turned the triangle into a rectangle with a smaller size.

"Hehe, yes, the quadrangle. Now look at." Uge took all the small stones into his grasp and dropped them to the ground. "How many billions of years do we need to wait until we can make this simple shape?" ask Uge. Then Uge again arranged the stones scattered into a rectangular shape again.

"You said you don't agree with Big Bang's theory to bother?” ask the Goddess while laughing.

“Who said he didn't agree? If there is a hand, the stone can be a rectangle. So, depending on the theory, if you agree with the role of the architect, then it is worth studying. But if it happens by itself, even like a clenic story,” said Uge.

“Means so does the Theory of Evolution, right?” ask Goddess.

“Betul! Without any electro-experts, where perhaps a scattering of wires and iron can become a robot. Living things are mechanical works that are much more complex than robots. Our teachers have shown pictures of the digestive system, breathing, reproduction and so on, does it not look like a technical picture?” ask Uge.

"Great thistles. Hmm, but why are intelligent people like the theorists even becoming atheists?” ask Goddess.

"Hehe, it has nothing to do with intelligence and atheism. Smart and stupid people can be atheists, too. Precisely the question should be gini, how can a smart person who does not believe in god?” Uge.

“Iya, we discussed earlier, knowledge is not necessarily in line with awareness,” said Dewi.

"Maybe need guidance. Angga, why is that guidance not given to everyone?" ask Goddess.

"Ustad said, 'Hide is like sunlight, actually everyone can. The problem is that we just stay away, choose a dark room and close all the gaps" said Uge.

"Thank you, Ga. You have brought light for me. I still have another question, why should there be a religion?" ask Goddess.

Uge chuckled as he remembered the business he should have talked about with the Goddess. But this discussion seems to be more important to the Goddess.

"OK, why would an architect have to create a working drawing?" ask Angga.

"So that the executor works on the building according to the wishes of the architect," said Dewi.

"That is the purpose of religion, that man may live according to the will of his creator."

"But, without religion people can still be good, right?" ask Goddess.

"As an architect, you like baseball, if the builder makes a building that is not in your favor? For example, you think it's nice white paint, but according to a good handyman red paint, and he runs what he wants,” asked Uge.

"Hehe, angry," answered the Goddess.

"It turns out that a good thing according to the workers, free if not obedient to the wishes of the architect," said Uge.

"Hmm right too. Well, this is also something I should ask. Why does God make so many religions? Confuse. For example, now I'm the handyman. On the table there are many working drawings of different architects, which one should I follow?” ask Goddess.

"Well, isn't that possible? There's gotta be another naro fad working pictures. God does not make many religions. Gini deh, if I'm not as the architect of Salman Mosque, do you believe?" ask Uge.

"There's no evidence?" sahut Goddess.

"Well, anyone can do it. If I am the architect of the Salman Mosque, my name and other important information should be written in official documents. Do not forget, you must learn to have the knowledge to check documents. If not, then you will believe me, I pointed my name, but it was scribbled bon baso,” joked Uge.

"Hahaha, Angga is there anyway. Okay I understand, I have to study religion deeply to be sure that my choice is right. Thank you very much, Angga, already want to talk about this matter", said Dewi. He seemed very satisfied with this discussion.

"Sama-sama, sorry yes, I am also still learning, so my explanation was very shallow and could be a lot of wrong, my advice should be after this you are looking for a real expert on religious matters. O yes, hehe you forgot yes, how about the teaching program curriculum?" ask Uge.

"Hehe, I didn't forget, I deliberately didn't interrupt because I enjoyed and I thought it was important. Angga I want more discussion with you but I have to go home now, can you ask for your number? Pinta Dewi while taking out her cell phone.

"I only have a boarding phone number, but if you use a boarding phone, the kids are very noisy. What if I had contacted you from the wartel? When will you call?"ask Uge.

"May, tonight, will you?" ask Dewi while calling her home phone number.

“God willing can,” said Uge while noting the phone number of Dewi.

After a bit of conversation, they separated.

When the Goddess left him, Uge did not go home. Just this time he had a conversation with women, the discussion material was not unusual, so he was actually still at home. Suddenly Uge felt his heart pounding, like a strange feeling had suddenly appeared in his heart. The Goddess Magnet was indeed too powerful, even for a person who claimed to be anti-crowd like Uge, he was not aware of feeling the sensation of falling in love. What about Widi?

Uge is raw experience with women, especially for matters of the heart, when meeting with Widi in chat cross-time, he thought he had met the most appropriate woman to be his partner later, he thought, though the figure of Widi he knows, only the imagination that he forms from the sentence he reads. Now that Uge is meeting a real female figure, Dewi has interacted with her five senses.

Uge's mind was now arguing fiercely, half of his heart was tempting to approach the Goddess but the other half of his heart was attacking him with a guilty feeling towards Widi.

Uge's side of the heart that was captivated by Dewi said, Graduation is in sight, business has begun to run, business mate would wait five years? That's not necessarily a soul mate either.

The side of Uge's heart that has given hope to Widi said, It's only fitting that you are not in Al Kahfi Land. Apparently you're ashamed of a promise you can't keep.

Uge feels played with by time. He was given a chance to peek into the future, so stuck tethering his heart with someone there. But after that he was even met with someone else who was real that he had been looking for.

Time has given me difficult choices, so let time also give answers to choices that I cannot answer, Uge murmured.

Suddenly a fine clap landed on his shoulder, "Angga, would you like to anterin me home? ask Goddess.

Uge was surprised, was this the answer of time?

"Aren't you the driver?" ask Uge.

"Bosen ah's. Go home on foot and talk. If we're tired, we'll take the angkot, will you?" ask Goddess.

Without further ado pretending to refuse, Uge responded to the request of the woman of choice of Time.
