Yes, and I think I said to that topic something in some my previous post

I take it you agree there is no evidence for said assertion.

I will stay mute, because I do not know what kind of evidence I can offer you except such Jac is offering to NSV in other thread. (The first cause argument)

Tnx, I will pass. Science has moved somewhere past Aristotle.

Yes, science has moved passed Aristotle's physics. You are throwing out the baby (Aristotelian metaphysics) with the bathwater. Is it possible you are making a mistake?

You seriously think we are preaching Aristotle's science here? my, my! get down from your high horse, lady. To top that, a Genetic fallacy hardly helps you here.

No, not the genetic fallacy! Surely not! :D

You kinda missed on the other two also.

Still tho if nobody has more physical evidence for mass / energy having been created by a creator than Aristotle did
I might revisipnize my thoughts a little.

Just that there are beautiful physics equations behind it. And beautiful symmetries. Like created. ;)

Cant argue with the beauty of math.

Classes start again tomorrow, so I wont have much time for this.

Thanks for your thoughts.

Forget the creation from nothing argument, it is pointless (from a philosophical view point). How about we get back to the topic we started before Christmas, i.e. motion/change. Did you get a chance to do some reading?
Let us proclaim the mystery of our faith: Christ has died, Christ is risen, Christ will come again.

I kind of think "something from nothing" is pointless from any POV other than
for some of our more dim theists to use it to prove to their satisfaction that there is a god, evolution is stupid, or whatever.

I can respect a person, who from a scientific or religious pov will accept that there are mysteries far too profound for human intellect, now, and likely, ever.

I did say I'd try to do some of that reading, on a trans pacific flight. I didnt.
I went to sleep. And I was way too occupied with other things in HK to give it any thought.

Classes start today. I dont guess I am likely to any time inform myself to where I can stand up and slug it out in the philosophical ring with anyone.

Of course. And you?

I just asked if you think its possible you are making a mistake yourself. You made another in how you interpreted that.

Indeed.
And my point is that MASS can come into existence and, one can argue, so does certain types of energy ( kinetic for example).
