Re: Christian Genocide
Atheism was an inseparable part of communism, because it gave people Faith, Hope and a belief in something greater than the SSSR or a dictator. However, the SSSR was about power, not destroying religion. That was not it's most direct goal. Besides, destroying religion was just a part of destroying c...

Re: Why is there something rather than nothing?
Why is there something rather than nothing? Something and nothing are complementary. When there is something in my cup I drink it until there is nothing in my cup, and repeat. The closer we look the more 'something' is composed of mainly 'nothing'. Nothing is essential to something. Nothing is subs...

Re: Things I have learned....
Well we're not so lucky here. We have four seasons:We have four seasons: Almost Summer, Summer, still Summer, and Christmas.
Almost Winter, Winter, Still Winter and 4th of July.
Well okay, it's not called 4th of July, but it's also a Celebration of Independence.

"Refutation" of the Cosmological Argument (AndromedasWake)
Warning, here comes AndromedasWake. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Dmc_a_E5w0&feature=related So he says that these constants don't exist, but rather they are something made up in the theories of cosmology, physics and other areas of science. Since they don't actually exist, there is no fine-tu...

Re: science and assumption-faith&proof
I'm afraid you're not going to get proof of the Christian God until He decides to offer it Himself. That is the whole point of the current system of salvation by faith. If there was proof, we wouldn't have to have faith. Rain, I disagree that faith and proof are mutually exclusive, to me the word f...

Re: Homosexuality
another quick question, if god hated homosexuality so much, why did jesus choose not to speak about it? I don't think it was a very big problem at the time, at least in the sense that it was considered a sexual sin by His audience already. Really, Jesus didn't speak about any specific problems very...

Sure, though most I have gone through I realize are ridiculous after some further thinking.Noah1201 wrote:There have been numerous proposed answers to the Cosmological argument, some even by Christian philosophers. Do you want to be referred to literature on the topic?

Re: Why is there something rather than nothing?
Guys, remember that nothing is not just no thing, it's not a vacuum, it's nothing - what rocks dream of . Something coming from true nothing is beyond me. Trying to explain that leads to the conclusion that, well, pretty much anything can happen for no reason at all. Here's a good explanation :esmil...

Re: God's thought in eternity
That's basically what I was thinking. But to go beyond thoughts (well, seems like that's covered), I think that while for us everything lasts a long time, to God, it literally is one moment, His now . For us, our now is a very small speck of time. Also, because of this, God actually works everywher...

Re: God's thought in eternity
Hey, just so you guys know, I'm going with Einsteins theory of time (well, actually general relativity) right now. Any response to my idea - that is, for God everything is happening in His now ? Btw, that would confirm that God only has one thought throughout all of eternity. Or perhaps He just has...

Re: Why is there something rather than nothing?
One needs to go back to the Aristotelian causes: - Material cause: What a thing is made of (an ax: wood, metal) - Efficient cause: Agency by which a thing is made (craftsman) - Formal cause: That into which a thing is made (identity: the act of being an ax) - Final cause: That for which a thing is ...
