Does the universe have some kind of memory?

This is Ken Ham, of Answers in Genesis, Ark Encounter, and the Creation Museum.

Last year I read an article titled “Will the Universe Remember Us After We’re Gone?” Now in it, the author, who’s an atheist, actually wondered if the universe has some kind of memory.


You see, in his worldview, we die and that’s it. Eventually all life will go extinct … and we’ll all be forgotten. It’s a very hopeless worldview!


He concludes the universe won’t remember us—and … I agree! But, as an atheist, he’s left without hope, and I’m not. You see, I have hope for now and eternity because of Christ. When we die, we all face judgment. For those who have trusted in Christ, we have eternal life … and are known by him forever.
