  3. Amen to that Jacuzzi. kudos! :thumbsupsmiley:

     

     

    To sum it all:

     

     

    Man is such a tiny speck in this universe as compared to the omnipresence of the Creator. To deny His Existence is to deny all the things that He did, including us.

    It is rightful to say that we should honor and thank Him for what He did.

     

     

    I know it's very difficult to believe in things that you can not see. That's where faith comes in.

     

    For example, when you've been given a problem wherein the situation requires your life to be taken to save other people's lives, what would you do?

     

     

    If you have faith, you will remember this rule,"If anyone makes an attempt to keep his life, it will be taken from him, but if anyone gives up his life, he will keep it" -Luke 17:13

     

     

    If you have ambition and wants to keep yourself ahead on top of others, "And the last will be first, and the first will be last." - Luke 13:13

     

     

    You still insist that there is no God, then read on,"When pride comes, then comes shame, but with humility comes wisdom" -Proverbs 11:2

     

     

    You don't need to be a rocket scientist to understand this words. Everything you ever wanted to know is in the Bible itself! Well, it's like a condensed book wherein highlights have been written instead of a details, but everything is there...

  4. Bud, you're quite wrong.

     

    Life is no game. It is a struggle to get over your ignorance and most of all, your silly prejudices. Human education is simply the ability to move forward by self-correcting attitude. As we unfold the hidden depths of our consciousness and open up to far reaching viewpoints, humanity gains its freedom. There is much more to learn, much more to discover and understand for men to conquer themselves and their SINFUL nature before they gain real FREEDOM. Just as God's mind is unfathomable, so are human potential limited only by their own lack of confidence and resistance to the TRUTH.

     

     

    Yup, we gain FREEDOM from our self-made ideas that are contrary to the TRUTH. It is our sin that separates us from reality and the other facts of science that are still to be discovered. The social pressure of wrong ideas and false information is keeping this world from beneficial changes. Such social impositions retard our attitudes and make us cower in FEAR and WANT.

     

    Men have declared the world flat. However, God did not make a flat Earth. Sinful Men used their own rules to empower themselves and persecute prophets and those who knew TRUTH. Leave God out of the problem. We do not know creation because we are not familiar with God and his ways. We fail to acknowledge TRUTH, which only God has power to change, suspend and alter for ever more.

     

    Today's FALSE PROPHETS are the environmentalists. They already declared that the Earth has to be saved. But wasn't Earth a planet with or without humans inhabiting it? Instead of the false idea, are men not concerned of their own survival rather than the planet's?

     

    Recently, the false prophet declared that there is GLOBAL WARMING, and humans are to blame. But in the past few weeks, icy conditions have prevailed from East to the West coast of the American continent, a major reversal in the prediction that melting ice would soon FLOOD the world. Now, the same amount of noise is quickly rephrasing the FEAR and telling the public that there is "natural" La Nina, which is making things cooler. Are men in control of things? The answer is NO. Just like in the olden days called dark ages, False Authorities are forcing their wrongful ideas on the foolish public, appointing themselves authority over many.

     

     

    Hey, Buddy! Don't get me wrong! I'm on your side! I'm just trying to use "game" as a metaphor to prove my point.... And beside, Life is really lot like a game where everything has to obey rules. The gamemaster (God) said,"Obey all my commandments", which is exactly like saying, "Obey my game rules...or else you're out." Isn't it what is literally written in the Bible? To obey His rule?

     

     

    For my viewpoint, science has been given to us as a way to reach some understanding as to the mechanics of things and of "What" He did. Maybe someday science could reach a point where one can answer the universal question: "Why?"

     

    The bottom line is: Science CANNOT disprove that there is no Creator of all things.

     

    One will spend a LIFETIME disproving that there is no God. All of us are dust in the wind, as Socrates said. But the theory that everything originated from one Source, that will last beyond millenia.

     

    Meanwhile, while we, as scientists, try to unlock His secrets, why don't we spend some of our time obeying His rules: Be good, help those people who are in need, donate some of your old stuff to charities, volunteer to clean up the environment or go to church every Sunday and pray.

     

    Isn't it safe to believe in science in parallel with a belief in God, than nothing to believe on?

     

    Albert Einstein said, each has a different point of view when they see a single object as explained by his Theory of Relativity. Everything is relative! What does this mean? It means when one declared that he saw an airplane, another person will object that it isn't so. It's a flying saucer, he said.

     

    Which one would you believe? Even you, as an observer, has a different point of view from the other two! You saw a flying duck! :rolleyes:

     

    Even the things that you see is not what it seems to be. More than meets the eye. You can see light as it is. But close scrutiny revealed that it is made up of color spectrum. In a very windy day you could feel the touch of something cool, yet it is a product of an agitated warm and cool air trying to balance itself. How about gravitational waves? The universe is full of these waves like ripples in the ocean. When one of these waves hit the earth, our surroundings are being stretch like a rubber band, even us. We cannot feel it and yet it does. Why build 9 planets instead of 1? We cannot live in Mercury nor Venus, let alone Pluto?

     

    Why all these?

     

    Better ask God. Who are we to question Him? He knows what He's doing. :hypocritesmiley:

  5. The real fact is this.

     

    Everything we see, hear, feel, or smell is govern by rules. Some of these rules have already been documented by science based on empirical data. We now know that planets on our solar system are orbiting around a sun because of gravitation and inertia. The same forces are being used by atoms which are composed of a central nucleus and a few revolving electrons. Though somewhat controversial, the theory of evolution made by Darwin made a startling revelation that every living things are made through a process of evolution, also made irrefutable by empirical data. The discovery of binary numbers (0s and 1s) that some thought they've discovered the holy grail of all languages, made the backbone of modern advances.

     

    The question is: Why these rules? Why can't planet Earth just travel beyond its usual orbit so that we can travel to new universes? Why does birds have different varieties like colors, behaviours, eating patterns, etc? Why can't my Mac talk to my PC without using a common communication protocol like TCP/IP?

     

    Science is alive today because of its notoriety for describing these rules. But what if these rules break up? See below for some classic examples.

     

    1. Dividing waters of the Red Sea.

    2. Lazarus raise from the dead.

    3. Lepers being healed without medicine.

    4. Walking on top of water.

    5. Miraculous ability to speak and/or understand a foreign language (tongue) previously unknown to the speaker.

    6. Blind men being cured.

    7. Feeding of 5,000 men with just a basket of bread.

    8. Sun stopped moving.

    9. A great flood that killed everything but a few survivors.

    10. Child being conceived without going to the process of impregnation.

     

    Chaos comes when rules breakdown. If we are to believe the Creator Theory, one can imagine the beginning of everything: A soup of chaos.

     

    Having said this, let's make a consensus that everything is a game which has a finite set of rules. Those who wants to play the game must obey the rules, otherwise, they're out. So let's play.

     

    But wait! There's one catch. The game have already been started since the beginning of time! Maybe some of us know the rules but a lot of us doesn't! You might comment,"That isn't fair!".

     

    Hey, buddy! Rules are rules! :hypocritesmiley:

     

    And the fact is if there's a winner, is not unlikely that there more losers in this game.

     

    Are u in or out?

  6. It sure is a shame that "God" didn't provide us with a clearer, more understandable description of the world and universe that he created, isn't it? One that didn't need constant reconciliation with the findings of science... One that didn't need to be explained as metaphors... One that didn't require up to four levels of meaning in any Scriptural passage. It seems that if he made the whole place and made us, that he could clearly and unambiguously communicate his construction in a way that could not be confused, right? This version would provide scientifically testable information. There is no reason he could not have provided this nor could not provide it still. Maybe he could give us a second Bible that was a tech-guide to the universe and speak through Stephen Hawking??? Then, we could quit wasting all of our time with scientific inquiry and just refer to the Book of Hawking [392:619] to understand what happened during the big bang or if there even was one.

     

     

    Albert Einstein said,"God always takes the simplest way". Which is more simple to you; have faith or finding the facts yourself?

     

    Also, life is not created randomly like a dice. God just fixed the game already as Einstein stated in his own words," God does not play dice." :thumbsupsmiley:

  7. Everything is like a giant puzzle. Science made progress picking out the pieces and figuring out some of its mechanics. But the the fact remains: Who place that giant puzzle before us?

     

    I refuse to believe that nothing comes from nothing! That's absurd!

     

    Can science create something out of nothing? Yes, Science can create atomic bomb that can level whole mountain.

     

    But can science create life out of nothing?

  8. Baligtarin natin logic mo....

     

     

    "Kung hindi totoo and isang bagay kahit na may patunay na ang bagay ay totoo, so wala nang totoo, lahat na lang hindi totoo?"

     

    Huh?

     

     

     

    Did you know that Jesus did know that there will come a time when people like yourself will not believe in Him.

     

     

    "Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed."

     

    - John 20:29

     

     

    I know that you and your atheists friends will laugh at this verse cause it sounds contrary to your way of thinking of "seeing is believing". Many people who've read this verse thought this man is crazy. Or is he?

     

     

    You've asked, "Can you prove the existence of your god?"

     

    The answer is simple.

     

    Look around you. The swaying trees. Those flying birds. That blue sky. Those towering mountains. Those majestic valleys. The air you breathe. The water you've just drank. The food you've consumed.

     

     

    Can't you determine the existence of God?

  9. On the contrary, it does prove that whoever created us is really a smart one. Somehow, he designed us creatures to THINK FOR OURSELVES. The creator put us inside a chaotic system where mankind are kings. He commanded people to flourish the whole world and be accountable for whatever happen to it. Now is it fair, you ask? Of course IT IS!

     

    Unfortunately, man misused and abused this gift by trying to think like his Creator, blinding their own eyes that they can also be all knowing or surpassed that of the creator.

     

     

    Remember, in the Bible, He tried to wipe out mankind.....(Read The Great Flood in Genesis)....

     

    Are there anything more brutal than that? But wait...

     

    Also remember that He's the one who commanded Noah to built the large ark in order for his family to survive the deluge.

     

    The bottom line is this.

     

    Misery happens because people have a propensity to forget who they've came from.

     

     

    Somehow, that Creator made a fair deal with us mankind. He designed us to do either believe in Him or not. He commanded us to believe Him and He shall bring you just reward. Do not believe Him and you shall suffer the consequences.

     

    It's your choice.

  10. Guys, let me put it this way. If i'm going to put myself in an atheist shoes, i'll ask these questions:

     

     

    When does it all started? Where did all things came from? Is there a beginning? And if yes, Who created us? It is right to infer that Whoever created us deserve our respect, whatever form he might appeared. There is no arguing that Whoever created us is a very intelligent and powerful entity indeed.

     

    Now, if there is a beginning, is it logical to assume that there is an end to all these things? And because Whoever created us owned his creations, is it also logical to say that he can take away all these things?

     

     

    How can I even say that there is no God when I myself can not prove that there's no beginning of all things?

  11. I believe that science and religion need not be mutually exclusive in meaning. One of the basic tenets of religion is to embrace the "Truth". Likewise, science attempts to explain everything, discovering the "Truth". A scientist need not be a disbeliever in a Supreme Being just because there's no concrete evidence or a sound theory to be based his reasons with. In fact, a scientist should start his reasoning by basing his arguments inclined towards a theory that there is a God. As we all know, a theory, unless proven or disproven, is just a theory. Meaning there might be a God or not. Now, would it be nice to adhere to the beliefs of a "God Theory" than nothing at all?

     

    The most famous scientist of all once said that,"God does NOT play dice".

     

    So if a scientist like him believe that there is a God, shouldn't we believe in?

     

    The Bible says that "God created man in a day.....". The Bible is trying to say the "Truth" of how long did God made the first man. Has science attempted to explained this to us? the answer is "YES".

     

    The answer lies in a scientific theory called "Theory of Evolution" by Charles Darwin.

     

    This theory explained that evolution doesn't happen overnight. The process can occur a thousand or million years. It means it will take thousands of years for a single cell microorganism to evolve into a more intelligent species like apes or man.

     

    So if it takes a thousand years for man to evolve, how come that the Bible declared that "God created man in a day"? Pretty weird, isn't it?

     

     

    Well, the answer is in the Bible itself, somewhere in the Bible, there's a verse which declared that an hour of God is equivalent to a hundred days for man. Well, do the math. This means that if God created man in a day (24 hours), then science explained that man's evolution took hundreds of years!

    Both beliefs DO really compliments each other, not otherwise.

     

    Now this really amazes me! It means God's timepiece is different than mine! And that's the "Truth".

     

    BTW, curious about the scientist who said that "God does not play dice"?

     

    It's Albert Einstein, the author the famous equation "E=MC2". Because of his equation, he saw the "truth" about how powerful God can be. Does "Hiroshima" and "Nagasaki" ring a bell?

     

     

    Also, he's the one who could explain to you why God has a different timepiece that ours....hehehe :)
