    The soul enters the entity at the moment of consception.
    There are no higher or lower universes than the one that is all.
    It cannot be measured as different, because their is only one.
    Awareness of one unites all.

    It is not that God is being diminished as you suggest, but rather only redefined as the universe or the unity or oneness of all.
    The definition of God is Truth!

    Re: An Idea

    Mankind is an expert at the religious and scientific judgement, measure, division, and complication of a universe that is truly just, immeasurable, indivisable, simple, and someday, through wisdom, one and free.

    And you seem pretty sure of your self as to what is wrong and untrue, it must be nice to be omnipotent.
    I am sure that it is nice to know the truth, are you sure?

    Re: An Idea

    I would not like to get into the debate of Atheist vs Religious in this thread. What is more interesting is the creation of matter / energy. I am convinced that the Big Bang was just a part of a larger process. The quention as to how matter was created is my quest now. As of today I do not have any answer... But lets go get an answer...

    You might want to rethink your above statement:


    Though atheists are in the minority in most countries, they are relatively common in Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, in former and present Communist states, and, to a lesser extent, in the United States. A 1995 survey attributed to the Encyclopedia Britannica indicates that the non-religious are about 14.7% of the world`s population, and atheists around 3.8% . A 2004 survey by the CIA in the World Fact book estimates about 12.5% of the world`s population to be non-religious, and about 2.4% as atheists . Non-religious people should not be equated with atheists as the definition of non-religious persons includes the people who are professing no religion, non-believers, agnostics, freethinkers, dereligionized secularists indifferent to all religions.

    It is a surprise that even after six centuries of the exponential growth of the knowledge of science, more than 95% of the people do not deny the existence of God while almost 85% of the world population actually believes in God. It is also a fact that scientific knowledge has hardly made a dent on the popularity of the religions and faith. Even Isaac Newton, the greatest scientists of all times, believed

    "As a blind man has no idea of colours, so we have no idea of the manner by which the all-wise God perceives and understands all things.” Even the greatest scientist of the twentieth century, Albert Einstein agreed that “Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind.”

    Also you didn't answer is your unknown force created or eternal or something else?


    Best

    Pat

    Re: An Idea

    An art gallery caution:

    As one meanders through the universal art show called life, gazing at the priceless one of a kind pieces of art, take extra care that you do not disturb them in anyway, for what you do to them you only do to yourself. You see, there is but only one painting, and you are an equal part of it, of all, of one. If you hurt a painting, you equally and truly hurt the entire gallery or oneself.

    Take care of yourself as if it were all,
    Take care of all as if it were yourself.

    Both the theory of evolution and the Bible has steps or stages towards man. And if the stages are 1 celled life to more complex structures or entities, why do we have the diversity of things and life that we observe.

    Both the Bible and evolutionary science has vegatation, reptiles, mammals, and finally man, in that order but why?

    HMMMM!! Still thinking.

    Pat ... don't get me wrong. I can tell from your posts that you are a genuine person and if there were more like you the world would be a much better place .... and I shouldn't be interfering in your thread ... but when people from two different cultures meet manners can be misinterpreted and misunderstood on both sides. Inadvertantly and blamelessly.

    Just to let you know that, to me, this (yours) is a very presumptuous post that assumes the high moral ground, believing its mandate is valid on the obvious ground that there are lesser and higher things. A 'beads & trinkets' to placate the savages outlook. I don't know if you will understand .. I'm not that good with only words to explain.

    Your understanding of evolution is as though you were taught it in a christian college that taught evolution only because the law required them to. There is an amazing world out there of which you are, so far, unaware. Please consider ..

    no offence old buddy .... greg

    Re: An Idea

    LOL ... I consider VB to be little better than cat's piss. Now if you had said Asahi or Stella Artois I would be there in a flash.

    I may be wrong but it seems to me that this is the first time you have 'expounded' a little more on your '=' theory. At the least I now have a glimmering of where your coming from and it ain't all bad.

    cool bananas ... greg
