I honestly have no idea whether you are being serious here or just throwing a [rather unpleasant] joke at me/us, but if you are actually serious, I am not sure what my personal life and lifestyles has got to do with either this topic, or you personally. What point are you trying to convey?



I was being satirical. The criticism part of the satire was directed at the lack of noteworthiness penned down in the previous pages.

I take it that you are not completely familiar with the concept of Revelation. Sans any Revelation, the lifestyles are going to be status quo. It doesn't matter whether it's your life or my life. However, in the event of a Revelation (verbal, natural, non verbal propositional), your life would completely alter since God either communicated with you directly or revealed himself to you through his creation. At least that's the prevalent belief.

He has explained much of his views in various postings which are pretty detailed.
He holds certain views and most of us are fully aware of it.
When we say "I", whom are we referring to as I? who is this I ? Surely it is not the body or the mind then who ? Pl see the thread on "who am I".
Good Day Latib.



Thanks Summer!

If I want to offend someone, I will make sure the other person knows.

I was wondering what is the "I" doing in your reply. Did you add it just to throw POH off-guard?! Clever!

I am not into alternate anything Cuckoo so stop winking at me so many times. And till date, I haven't figured out why you always have an inordinate number of smileys plastered all over your messages.

Yes, there are alternate theories to the big bang such as those proposed by Steinhardt and Turok or those proposed by Hoyle, Gold and Bondi. Matter of fact, there are alternate theories to every theory in this Universe. I am sure a plethora of other "scientists" are trying to dismantle the big bang, as we speak. If they have enough funding, I am sure they would have made more inroads. There's no surprise there. Every one knows that most theories, including big bang, are fudged to some extent. You are talking like you are the first one on this planet who registered your objections against big bang or studied the objections surrounding the big bang. I am aware of most of those objections as well, thank you very much.

All said and done, big bang still rules because of the discoveries made pertaining to cosmic microwave background radiation. Period.

😆
lol that's better. back there, you were makin lik it was fact. it exploded, it inflated lol😉😆
as for winkies, u need to lighten up mister. we cant have u gettin seizures b4 u can figure out who u r😆😉😆

Too many smileys and winks take away the seriousness of the debate. But that's me.

As for facts, if Science tells you that it's a fact, then it darn well is. Why? Because the scientists have done the spade work and paid their dues. If scientists have differences of opinions amongst themselves, so be it. But, at any given point in time, one theory stands. Right now, it's big bang. It will stand till someone comes along and knocks it off it's perch with better evidence. But since that didn't happen as yet, big bang is a fact. If you don't accept it, then come up with better evidence. Don't stand in a corner and heckle. Anybody could do that.

Go to a white board, draw a perpendicular line in the middle of the board and on the right side of the line draw a shape (whatever you like) and call it space-time. Everything you know is now on the right side included within that shape. On the left side of the perpendicular line you do whatever you want. The thing is, whatever you do, you will never be able to understand what you did on the left side of the line. If you could understand it, you would have included that on the right side to begin with.


But thats just what we are doing isnt it ! We have included God in our lives even though He may be on the left side of the line so to say .

depend what u mean by "fact". if it's the kinda "fact" one asume to be true but that could be refuted at some point, then sure. to me it's more lik assertions extrapolated back in time. our current state of scientific art dont do good predictin weathr tomorrow, and here we're tryin to work with general relativity, mix it up with notions of quantum gravity we got no clue abt, come up with one explanation for redshifts, anothr patchwork for background radiation, n exterpolate it to big bang event. quite a stretch, but that also totally ignore othr facts lik how singularites introduce questions we cant even begin to answer with physics if it were true. lik zero volume, zero time that dont have any physical meanin. sure,big bang sounds fascinatin so public/ media has latched on to it. it's also gotten all the fundin. somewheres i just think it's more honest to acknowledge othr possibilities, that we are not entirely sure, before goin around constructin fancy edifices on sand that keep shiftin.😊

^^ I understand skepticism. I am a big skeptic myself. Like you said, they haven't mastered the science of predicting weather with 100% accuracy but, probably, predicting it with such an accuracy might not be trivial as it might introduce too many variables. Who knows? But think of it this way. Just because we don't have a cure for common cold doesn't mean, the heart surgery will likely fail and we stop believing in heart surgeons.
