it is sooo over-priced.. i read that full-time college professors make 6 digits every year and that their job is very very relaxed.. they had a college professor on NPR talking about how they don't even really prepare that much for class because they know it all already. |

Tuna the essence of this thread was exactly to ridicule the religious beliefs of some "christians". Its an easy kill cos "watch and discuss" people communicating through God without actually making any coherent sense or meaningful language structure is imo their sub-conscientious attempt to reconstruct events in the old testament - for you it's BS. Once you apply the willingness of some religious followers to believe anything without proof (e.g. the existence of a God no one has ever seen) then it becomes a generalisation about religion without scientific foundation. Hence Science vs God. Which is more real a God created from nothing or a universe that appears out of nowhere? Glass half full or half empty? Science tells us a lot, religion give us a lot of purpose. Do people think someone just invented the idea of a creator God or is it actually possible that through naturally observed phenomena man came to the conclusion that everything is created and nurtured. So this must be a universal occurrence. And if this 'observation' sounds a little like the natural sciences then why not? Genes, chromosomes, DNA have a genetic programme, to be passed on from one generation to another and ensure that species survive. Why is it SO important that we do procreate and survive?? After all we're just space dust but what sparked intelligence to become complete competing and evolving lifeforms? At least as many scientists believe in some form of creator so scientists are not atheists by definition, they recognise that chaos cannot be so purposeful. In other words the odds are in favour of a creator cos the chances of everything being just right for intelligent life to evolve on earth too incredible. I do know that Stephen Hawking said it is possible that due to the vastness of the universe that an earth like planet with the same conditions to sustain life proly exists but the odds of finding it are remote. For me this is believable it still does not contradict the creator theory, ppls views are in opposition - thats the sticking point! Open minds are more receptive to the possibilities.

nice quote but Voltaire would state that, he was opposed to the old establishment, those powers of the divine and nobility. Its his opinion as a philosopher and i realise he said "IF" but he's kinda suggesting that we need a father figure whether real or make believe. France were the first modern secular nation if i recall correctly. Roots of modern atheism? Stephen Hawkins suggested that if we recognise that the universe has a beginning then it is possible for the universe to have a creator. The big bang theory ( the beginning of universe) doesn't mean there is no god. The universe is measured by space/time but what happened before time (prior to the big bang) is immaterial because it has no observed/measurable/significant impact. Then again he also said that the universe is ever expanding so it has no beginning nor end which challenges the place of God in the universe. For me, once religion placed itself in direct opposition of science, there was a shift in power. Religious philosophers were proved profoundly wrong on fundamentals as the orbit of the earth/sun and its position in the universe. They obviously mistrusted or felt threatened by scientific enquiry. So once science proved to be more accurate than religion it questioned many others things such as our origin etc. Religion got it wrong and science is seemed more reliable the faith. But religion is flawed because man puts himself in charge of God's affairs and man is imperfect. If god approves in your actions then you are justified by the highest power and no man can question an authority greater than ours right? The creator made no requests that we worship him in church/temple every week or that we nominate a leader on his behalf or that heaven has a limited amount of places afaik. But you can find justification for this in the holy books - Bible/Koran/Torah. Thats where imo the corruption lies, individual faith can be a purer form of belief. Is it possible for a universe to be created? for me, yes because as we observe everything is created/born. And i agree with you when you said if god exists he would be nothing like we imagined. If you accept that he made us in his own image then it doesnt mean we have the same appearance. And TUNA I didnt know Paw was trying to prove there was a god, he could have given better examples than that one though lol.

lol are you saying that if farting didn't exist man would have created it?? that s a whole new universe of hot gases expanding through space governed by time forming galaxies and solar systems. I'm presuming u plan to create solid masses at some point? Second thoughts, I prefer this universe.

Stephen Hawking has been doing nothing but thinking for years! His life story is one of pure mental toughness. if he doesn't inspire you nothing will! BUT he doesn't have the answers! Probability=Odds are or Most likely
Thats the best even he can do! and he's given it more thought then most anyone! he leans towards Intelligent design though? HM IMO there's more! how could there be more though if man can't see it or find it? maybe it doesn't dwell here? maybe it only visits and doesn't stay? maybe we will all find out soon? 1 thing is 4 sure! were at a very bad time! Kaos is beginning to rare its ugly head! the *Iran having nukes* issue is without a doubt the most dangerous situation in our history! they all haft to get that one right! If Iran's leadership is serious about wiping Isreal off the map? then that puts the rest of the world in a very troubling possition! what should be done though? thats may be the most important question in our history? i just hope there smart enough to answer it! |

no Trendy that was a much different situation. the US and the USSR never wanted a war! that was posturing! the Cuban missle crisis was serious but neither side was radical and wanted to use any nukes!
Iran's intentions with nukes are unclear! Once Iran gets nukes its out of our hands and in there's! Thats a scary thought 4 sure! If they were to launch a nuke it could start a chain reaction of nuke launching? leaving not even a fan for the sh1t to hit! |

yea i think its his attempt to explain to us what is inexplicable or infinite because infinity just is. I dont know about the north pole analogy but beyond the north pole is the south pole so he might b suggesting that space curves in hence wormholes and time travel. Or maybe hes just stating its nothing significant idk. I can't remember where i read this but i recall scientists trying to discover the theory of everything where all laws are known and the secrets/origins of the universe are revealed - no more unanswered questions. Is there such a thing? Once we do or if we achieve this then we would theoretically know as much as God or be gods, take your pick.

green: i don't think he was saying space is curved but who knows! i thought he was making fun of the question.. i didn't think he was being literal red: it's called the string theory! |

Why is it that we're apparently more afraid of Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, and North Korea, when only North Korea might be the only one capable of striking us, if they even can? Sure, there is the threat that terrorists might acquire a suitcase nuke from Iran, but still. Mexico is in our own backyard and yet all we care about it "securing the border," never mind actually helping them with the out of control areas. I'm not saying I'm not afraid of Iran and North Korea, just that I'd be more afraid for Mexico and maybe even Venezuela right now. They're a lot closer to home than the "Axis of Evil" countries.
