Well, yes. We can keep the thread to simple yes or no question. But that begs for a reason as to why one answers either way....But IMO sharkboy is asking for a discussion, hes asking is this crazy....He uses the word think, that provokes thought.
To ask that one line of thought is to be shut out does not lead to a truth if the thought or the truth has not already be proven....( not that any truth will be discovered here ) Those that have been called literal, fundamental, close minded, ect. in their lines of thought, well there are those in any topic and we just have to aknowledge it with respect and continue. Deleat as needed.
I for one, do think/beleive that all of the universe and life was created by God. Inteligent design, call it what you will.
And sceince, without closeing their minds, have not proven that it wasn't.
The deeper they look into the small micro scale of things, the more they scratch their heads and say , maybe there is an inteligence behind this...the farther they look out in to space and time, same thing...What they '' thought '' they would find, results from new technologies and understandings...suprise after suprise. They go back and change their theories constantly....
We discussed the other solar systems being discovered and functioning in ways that the scientist dont understand. This leads them back to looking again at our own solar system and rethinking how it was formed. They dont know, its all theroies.
Gods not hideing it, its there....He's not stoping us from looking, he's given us the mind to think about it and the materials to look at it with, and maybe one day we will find what we are looking for. What will it be ? We are looking becuse we want to know, not because we already know.
I think he designed it all to function under exact rules and produced what was needed and pushed the button. We call them laws of nature or laws of phisics, gravity, E=mc2, we are adding them as we find them, some we are discovering dont apply in the fast of space or the microbes of atoms....but the laws of how it all really works are there....nothing wrong with looking.
Whats wrong is to say its this or that without proof. Now no one can say look, this proves that it is God, but as I said earlier, they cant prove its not.
The big bang may be just how it got started this go around, still is part of the plan, the design, but still does not say where all the mass came from, thats OK, keep looking, how do you get something from nothing....had to come from somewhere, right ??
Heres one relateing to the question at hand.....what is life ? Dust to dust, yes, but what acually happens in between ???
