As said before, we were given science with Abraham. Now, through time, the evolution of ideas has followed interesting paths, one controversy being, of course, those things that may have a Teleological flavor.

Aqdas #178: By God, this is the arena of insight and detachment, of vision and upliftment, where none may spur on their chargers save the valiant horsemen of the Merciful, who have severed all attachment to the world of being.

SAQ #61: For the spirit travels in two different ways: without means, which is spiritual traveling; and with means, which is material traveling: as birds which fly, and those which are carried.
