The US Constitution set up a system of government with three co-equal branches of government. Each branch of government is responsible for different matters, which is known as the Separation of Powers, and is held responsible to each other with a system of interlocking responsibilities and obligations, better known as checks and balances.
The end result is a system where no branch should stand above the other branches and where each branch is responsible for their own set of responsibilities.
Guru Nanak, the founder of sikhism, maintained that only the Creator knows the origin of the universe, and he also wrote that the divine creation consists of a large number of universes. No one knows for sure how and when creation took place.
