    Re: Evolution and intelligent design

    You would think that 'that Austin' would know all this by now. Do you think he will ever improve Mikal ?

    I just don't know where you get the patience.

    Hi cool bananas...how are you?? I read somewhere in the threads that you were busy with moving and the season...is that recent??

    Anyhoo..I am challenged to debate and discuss with Austin. We are on opposite poles which makes discussion worthwhile...smiles...

    The best to you...Mikal

    The 10 Commandments are also structured into History. They too have a deeper meaning only derived intuitively and cognitively...

    OK, I derived them:

    Re: Evolution and intelligent design

    Austin, remnants of the Ten Commandments are found in the pre-Israelite civilizations also in the Egyptian Book of the Dead. Only in the latter the transmission is I have not killed, I have not stolen...etc.

    So here we see a revision, also the Bible being brought to the attention of cultural consciousness which makes it seem much like ongoing development of religion and morality in the ancient civilizations.

    Yes, you have surely taken the action of producing a clear image of the Commandments but that is not deriving intuitive meaning from them...

    Well, then, we have it that the writers of the Bible wrote false history, this still being preached by all the clergy of Christendom, such as the history of Noah and Moses, plus more myth on top of that which is only known to some experts, who, again, didn't inform the Pope.

    And this is a way to get the word out?

    And that Egyptian book is better off dead unless the mummies return.

    The fossils tell the story, but some old fossils don't believe what is there, preferring to go by what is not there (invisible).

    Also, since a ground-state cannot come from Nothing, there never was any creation. The tiny ground-state was always around, tiny because it is the residual after all the conserved energies cancel out, gravity being negative and stuff being positive.

    Re: Evolution and intelligent design

    From the Book of the Dead:


    The Dead Arise

    The sermon preached
    But it did not reach,
    For no one moved
    Or made a peep,
    They being more
    Than asleep.

    Is it to the dead
    That I drone and read?

    The sermon sum
    Was finally done
    And stirrings drew
    From a few,
    Then all this life knew,
    From their dreams of fun,
    Rushing out as one.


    The Quick and the Dead

    The sermonizer tired
    Of preaching to the choir,
    So he reached out to the dead,
    Pontificating, lecturing to them instead—
    That counseling expounding advisor;
    But the dead became none the wiser.

    You don't have to lie about science, now do you Mikal, to make your points...? You better convert a little of your right side nonsense to left side wisdom...
