What science has left UNTAUGHT!

  When one goes deep into the science, there are things that suggest the existence of immortal soul or a caring Supreme Soul. Hence, the question is not about lack of proofs, but is all about whether one is “willing to accept” or not (Mathew 11:14). Let us take some samples:

  Electronics is an outgrowth of semiconductors which are ordinarily understood through a combination of chemistry and quantum theory. In the ground state, a semiconductor is described simply by two bands. The lower valence band is completely filled with electrons and the upper conduction band, separated by a small energy gap from the valence band, is empty. A semiconductor can be excited by various means such as heat or light energy or even by impurities. When an electron is excited from the valence band to the conduction band, it is considered as annihilated in the former and created in the later. Thus something which decays reappears again elsewhere. Its nature, too, changes. The electron was localised or confined earlier, but after excitation it is free. If this is the case with electron, what is the difficulty in accepting that the observer leaves the body (when body is no longer fit) and “returns” to where it was before, and comes back later to take another body? (Ecclesiastes 12:7; Mathew 11:14)

  Science also teaches about wonderful systems such as the pain-mechanism (which alerts us to avoid further harm) in our bodies, immune system (the state of having sufficient biological defenses to avoid infection, disease, or other unwanted biological invasion) ….. etc. Do they not point to the existence of a CARING Supreme Soul? (Psalm 65:9; Jeremiah 29:11; Mathew 6:32)

  A caring God?

  That allows millions to die in agony from cancer?

  Millions to die in concentration camps (still going on in North Korea to this day).

  That can apparantly relieve all suffering but chooses not to so as to make a point...

  As parents go that's not very caring. So...maybe there isn't a God...and maybe science will explain all the points above in the decades and centuries to come. Science will certainly do more to help than God has bothered to do.

  Past life memories are available in the ocean called sub-conscious mind. Any psychiatrist can unearth details that would answer why certain people suffer, which is of course is the effect, and what is the cause (from from their previous births). For example, a person who destroyed another person’ eyes in some previous birth, thus caused blindness to him, is born blind in his next birth. “Eye for eye, tooth for tooth” is better understood here. This has nothing to do with God, who has left everything to the automatic mechanism called Principle of “sow and reap.” (Galatians 6:7) It means once you choose to act, then nature ensures the reaping!

  Once a seed is sowed, some mysterious forces of nature come into play and ensure that it sprouts, grows and bears fruit. So are actions that are sown by man. Thereafter he has no control over them, Nature does the rest, he can only reap!

  Ah - the 'It's nothing to do with God response'.

  Of course, even us imperfect humans can see that a parent that stands by, watching their child place its hand on a hot cooking plate and then excuses their inaction by saying "It's nothing to do with me, it was their choice" is a crap parent.

  So that's what I think of your 'caring God'.

  This is what Abiather is actually selling...

  The Brahma Kumaris leadership has sought to cover up or deny child sex abuses at its headquarters, multiple suicides of followers at centers, financial corruption and abuses, immigration abuses, the persecution of minor or breakaway groups and the breaking up of families...

  Abiather........"mysterious forces of nature"....Why cloud yourself in mystery? How long do you wait for the enlightenment?

  There is a life to be lived, would it not be more productive without all the clutter?

  Well I guess its up to you.

  Debates, arguments are normally resolved with facts sound reasoning. ...NOT MYSTERIOUS NON....SENSE !!

  The Law of Karma can be understood as the spiritual equivalent of Newton’s Third Law of Motion, which states that for every action [on the physical plane] there is an equal and opposite reaction

  From the Brahma Kumari official website.

  Do some research on this lothesome organisation. Lying and deception is standard practice.

  "When an electron is excited from the valence band to the conduction band, it is considered as annihilated in the former and created in the later. Thus something which decays reappears again elsewhere. "

  Wow!!!! Maybe you should reseach this on your own. Your key word will be lattice And ladder.

  The word "considered" means a lot in this sentence. As it is a means for mathematical manipulation. Just as the + and - signs on a battery do not mean one terminal has a positive value and one terminal has a negative value. The words left and right could be substituted. It is simply arbitrary and is used as a tool for understanding. If I were you I wouldn't rely on a religion to find science. I don't know what your science background is and I don't want to degrade your efforts, why don't you read up on the conservation of energy.

  If your father gifts you a powder-blue Rolls-Royce Phantom (which is of course the proof that your father cares for you), and if you do not apply breaks whenever necessary and hurt yourself or others, it is only the proof that you do not care (it is not the proof that you do not have a caring father). Similarly, God has given everything to humans—resources, ability, free-will, cause-and-effect mechanism…, but most humans want to misuse them. If only man avoids wastages, every human on earth can live in a palace, like a king!
