Witness My Fury

You mean you know the structure of God? You been talking to tammy have you, she knows these sort of things too.

Newton was deeply impressed and puzzled by the mysterious fact that all the planets revolve around the sun on the same plane.

He posited that it must be the work of god. Silly Isaac.

Kate you are making the same mistake on a different scale.

Lets just take a humble photon. Why do we need God to have photons? -bohm

The way that photons behave is wonderful and spritual. We can create photon releases in the lab with any exothermic reaction. We are discovering the way they already behave, and learning how to form them oursleves. To me this has a divinity about it, and gives me faith in something unkown and more complex than we can ever discover in our lifetime.

It's not about needing God, it's more about getting to know him better for me. So to imagine a world without God, I have to conceptualise that science and religion are not related.

I am philosophising this concept..............................................................

I am not making the same mistake as Newton, I don't know what Newton said. But I do agree with Einstein, when he said "God didn't play dice with the universe" and "Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind".

If you think I am making a mistake to believe in God, you are a fundamental atheist, who is trying to get me to become atheist too. My 12yr old is Atheist, I let him think for himself.

LOL, no. You would know what I mean if you knew as much about physical chemistry as bohm and cantleave. cofty is trying to quote Newton now, but I am not buying it. I have Dawkins and Einstein to prove some of my points.

So if you want to help me conceptualise what a world without God looks like, as atheist tell me what one with God would look like?

bohm,

Looking at photon's again. Magnesium in water is a magical, colourful, electric reaction. We know the science behind why the particles behave that way, it not really magic, but magical can be a tem used to describe it. Kate xx

Kate,

People wonder at nature. Subatomic particles are not divine. If you mean that they seem cool and believe in God from their existence, it is your belief. The particles are neutral. I find it wondrous on a personal level how the universe is arranged. These things just exist. They don't care how we view them. Also, they seem to get along fine without any humans, too.

I would rather see you articulate the answer.

this is great!

doesn't this prove that 'reality' is personal perception?

the picture is the same, only our interpretation differs...

It is, I am a very religious person. I agree inanimate objects are not divine in themselves, but they are special in a divine way IMO. Kate xx

Please define "divine"?

Are you using it as a synonym for "unanswered question", the very type of riddle which drives scientific investigation?

Because from here, it sure looks like you're trying to circularly-define God into existence, eg the behavior of sub-atomic particles is 'divine', thus a 'divine' creator must exist. That's WT type logic (used in brouchures like the 'Origins of Life' and 'Was Life Created?', except they provide lovely pictures to make their point). It also is no different from Paul's argument used in Greece from the Book of Acts, saying that evidence of God is seen in the creation all around him.

We've been though this already: all examples are simply permutations of "God of the Gaps" fallacious reasoning, driven by an 'appeal to ignorance'.
