Really??  I´m a bit skeptic about you reading 200 books about philosophy and theology....that´s a lot of time invested in making a decision about what you believe or “feel.”

Two words of advice if I may…Ipod and Audiobooks.

It’ll let you walk around and socialize whilst you ponder the meaning of life.

 as i said i am a book worm. i was an agnostic. that was my belief.

Hi everyone, my special greetings to S-- of course.

My dear TC friends: DD, Gok, LL (anyone else?)

Please, listen to this guy

And please, find all his vids (professor Walter Veith). I recommend. Interesting. As you know I myself love themes like Creation, Universe, Planets, Existence.

I listened.

me too , it seems he tries to disprove the theory of bing bang, according to today´s scientific knowledge that theory contains some flaws, that is true, retrograde motion is one of them that mentioned in video.

We just know that we are living in an expanding dynamic universe which was observed and that yielded scientist to put forward some theories like this in order to explain the origin of universe. Newton was wrong, Einstein was wrong as well when he claimed that we are living in an infinite-unchanged universe, today´s scientist are wrong, possibly in future they will again be wrong, but in each theory people continue to learn something new about universe. Depending on today´s scientific knowledge probably we can say(this is one of the criticism of bing bang theory, i read in a forum);whether there is a start point of universe or not, is not related to whether universe created or not. Even if we suppose universe is infinite, this is not able to disprove universe was created.  Any physical model belong to this universe, is not enough to explain the universe. Each model will need a existential basis to form its own.

As a matter of fact, the word science is a bit misunderstood. It is often associated with technology. Most of the time, it is the multi billion dollar equipment monitoring some remote corner of the universe or a high tech scanning device that provides us with the kind of information we will ever be interested in. The rest of the findings of science is reserved for professionals who are able to think in terms of specialized data mostly on a theoratical basis. These people spend a life time, sometimes without being able to find anything significant. The pool of knowledge expands very slowly. Still there are a few eminent scientists who made staggering contributions to our understanding of the universe.

We are some 7 billion critters perched on top of a tiny piece of rock whose entire energy is provided by the sun. As we are talking, the sun hauls us at a staggering speed in its orbit. Our Earth travels in featureless void where a few million light years does not create any noticeable difference in the seemingly constant scenery. Still, everyone looking can see a different thing. The Chinese saw animals in stars, the Greeks Gods and Goddesses and new generation has even lost sight of it due to excessive night time illimunation in the urban area.

People pursue the animal inside. They need to feed themselves, quench their thirst, and satisfy the need for believing. For that reason, all around the world, there are fast food restaurants, mosques and churches. They give a service to those who need them. They essentially perform a practical task, when you hungry you go to McDonalds you eat that big hamburger without thinking about what it takes away from your health. When you go to a church or a mosque you also satisfy a need but what you actually get does not ever change. Billions of people keep doing this and hardly ever reap the benefits of the advances obtained through scientific pursuits.
