Sažetak
The author starts from the question wether chaos or logos has the
first or the last word in the cosmos under supposition that the
universe in the biginning was in chaos. After interpretation of the idea
of chaos as well as notion logos and after partial presentation how
that problem was uderstood and solved in the history of western
thought of Hesiod tili the modern cosmology, the author claims that
scientific hermeneutics of the cosmos includes logicalness of that
cosmos, that is possible to notice.
The author points out that the various theories about the
biginning of the universe are trying by means of certain models to
describe partially the past of the universe and that partial describtion
could be scientificaly correct but it is not integral if does not take also
the question of the beginning itself or beginning of the universe. If
these theories stopped in their researches, within the framework of
immanent logos, they could not give the responde in question why
rather logos to chaos in the universe. They can not find the responde
by means of a certain selfexistence of logos, because in that case logos would alredy be and should origin. Because of that they refer that questions to Transcedent Logos who gave to the universe its essence and its logicalness.
And at the end the author concludes that chaos, in the temporal
biginning of the universe, if it existed, does not oppose to
transcendental Logos, because that chaos existed, or rather was
created, because transcendental Logos, God, could create in the
beginning also chaotic universe and gradualy gave to it logicalness. In other words the first and the last word in the universe does not have and can not have chaos but transcendental Logos who has been
creating and putting in order the universe.
