A priest learns that the universe is a tapestry copied from moment to moment by angels, and time only flows because they make mistakes. So he finds a book describing the eyes of angels, and from it derives every law of physics.

Interesting that coherent laws should derive from mistakes rather than chaos.

Funnily enough, Big Bang theory was first formulated by Georges Lemaître, a Catholic priest.
