Try doing some actual research instead of a 10 minute google search before getting your knickers in a twist over what is no more than a challenge on my semantics.

No need to get all feisty and start assuming I didn't do anything but a 10 minute google search. I read several links on it and none of them seemed very scientific at all. Over the past week or so since I first saw you mention it I have poked around looking for a few hours.

You may even have to leave your computer if that's possible, and actually talk to a scientist.

Ease up, cowboy. I leave my computer all the time. I was just asking if you had something of more substance to point me to than what I had been able to find.If you do, I would LOVE to see it.

I will readily admit I don't have time to track this down and then find a scientist to talk to. I suspect that if I tracked down the right person I would have already been able to track down relavent reading material. I am kinda busy, ex wife, two kids, busy career, metal concerts, charity golf tournaments and what not.

But even without SWT, Einsteins theory eXplains something that I had been unsure of, regarding Christ rising bodily into a spiritual realm.

I have yet to see that since I can't find anything of scientific substance on it. That's where I al asking for help on. What I did find didn't explain anything as far as I could tell. This is in part because of a heavily assumed idea that spirit = energy. If that is the case, then heaven exists in my computer since energy is flowing through it. Not because of the porn, although that helps sometimes.

And relativity doesn't explain transforming from matter to energy and then back to the same state of matter as before, just that matter and energy are the same and CAN be converted. So far, that has tended to be a one way transaction (Hiroshima, Nagasaki, the Sun...)

I saw the gods last night...

by EntirelyPossible in

the gods of metal!

big 4, yankee stadium, metallica, megadeth, slayer, anthrax.

eight hours of show with some of the greatest thrash metal bands to have ever existed playing their best to an utterly packed crowed at yankees stadium, finishing off with all off the big 4 playing overkill, a tribute to lemmy and his band motorhead, one of the original metal gods.. .

Stalin, Po, Mao, so many others Slaughtering of millions in the name of...not God thats for sure.

Exactly. Except they are recent, people have been killing in the name of God since there WAS a god. the godless killers have a lot of catching up to do.

A code that not everyone seems to have it seems...

Very true. Moral codes tend to be both personally and culturally based.

Yes, because nowhere in the bible will you find the commandment to love and pray for your enemies...

Right before "and if they don't worship god like we do he will kill them all in horrific ways".

Really? seems to be the opposite case.

Inquisition, crusades, slavery, beating up gay people in the name of god....

Why? what makes those things so wrong to you?

My internal moral code.

I mean is there anything wrong with exploting the weak, the strong taking what they want? and if you feel that is wrong, why would you think that?

Because I have an internal moral code, not because of God or Jesus.

this is a personal observation and certainly not representative of all atheists.

i enjoy discussions with folks of this persuasion; in general they appear well read and somewhat more educated than many believers.

as a group most atheists cringe and become insensed when discussing the existence of a deity with believers especially fundamentalists.

Twice for emphasis ;)?

I'll get back to you when I get home from work.

Exactly! and anytime is fine, dear, I have to run on a few hours myself.

Second you are dead wrong in your statement about time dialation/travel. The faster any object travels relative to the earth the faster said object (or person) travels in time. This was postulated by Einstein in the 1920's and proven in the 60's by actual experiment. Your science is wrong. Go back and redo your homework.

OK....

In the theory of relativity, time dilation is an observed difference of elapsed time between two events as measured by observers either moving relative to each other or differently situated from gravitational masses. An accurate clock at rest with respect to one observer may be measured to tick at a different rate when compared to a second observer's own equally accurate clocks. This effect arises not from technical aspects of the clocks nor from the fact that signals need time to propagate, but from the nature of space-time itself.

Well, that was easy. Looks like I was 100% right. And we ALL travel in time in the same direction.

Better luck next time. You fundies and your constant fail at science...

He has it. Christ. Love.

Lot's of people had and promoted that before Jesus. Can't really give him credit for that one.

why do YOU look at the OT instead of at CHRIST when determining what God IS? When the bible that points to Christ says LOOK TO CHRIST? Its the same question I ask some christians, who treat the bible the same as you do.

Because the OT is all about God, the NT is all about Jesus. Some called him the Christ, not all. There is zero proof he was the Christ, just a hippie that preached love.

Or maybe you're just making it up because you like it better?

Since the details are lacking, it seems just as plausible as what other people made up.

Christ came to teach what was true from the beginning, but that man had warped and misunderstood and abused due to their own limitations/faults/reasons. Same management. Again, you are disregarding what Christ said to believe parts of the OT - that even the prophets contradict, IN the OT. Why do you do that?

Because Jesus claimed the Law was OK in his book, he didn't come to abolish it. Therefore, women as property was good. Can't get much clearer than that.

You ignored what I wrote, love, and just said the same thing. Why? Did you read what I wrote, think about it, look it up, take a class ,think about it some more, then get back to me?

Do unto others... and love others AS YOURSELF... not to mention the new command... love others AS I HAVE LOVED YOU.

I didn't ignore it at all, I tend to read everything you write, dear :)

And what I think about it is that since he didn't mention and in fact said he was not there to abolish the law...he must have thought it was OK.

Since He also died without recanting his words, his Father, or his treatment of others (including forgiving those who tortured and killed him), then yeah, I guess it was pretty important to him.

Exactly, he never recanted on saying the Law was OK by him. The Law that allowed for slavery, murder and sugjugation of women.
