“six thousand years of human existence”.
in 1969 the watchtower magazine in czech began publishing a series of articles based on the book life everlasting—in freedom of the sons of god.
did not wt, riding the 75 wave, initiated a "6 month limit of study to baptism" program to finish the work by 75? No cautionary letters were read in the mainstream North American field imho. but then,
the Czechs were always smart, still are,- smarter than merkel.

happy turning of the shadow day everyone, starting today,
in NY the shadows are getting shorter,
in NZ longer.
The shadow, that is how they proved ~ 300 bc, that the Earth is not a circle but a sphere.
..specifically, the suffering of animals.
you can talk about free will/sin/people choosing to not listen to god etc to explain human suffering being allowed.. but how can you love a god that allows animals, that haven't sinned or chosen to not have anything to do with god, to have their short lives ended in often long, drawn out, painful ways.
i could list stories i've read that would probably make you feel ill, but i'm not looking to shock anyone or start an emotional debate.
suffering= pain is a defense mechanism. you cause suffering by eating, clothing, shelter. justice allows that you endure suffering. is it not a fair bargain? it allows us to experience a great life for a while!
happy renewal of the solar cycle day every one. justice too, tasmania gets to have a summer. cortina d'ampezzo some snow.
turkey and now berlin, the abrahamic mind virus strikes again... actually there is no confirmation the truck attack was islam, but... it's probably islam.
at least in europe, they call terrorist attacks just that, unlike here in america, we have become so crazy we have clear terrorist attacks, some over a year old now that they still question the motive ala san bernadino.. religion .
comment in a major paper: " show me a country with low immigration, and i'll show you a country with low no. of terrorist attacks and [attacks on woman],: Poland, Japan, Czec. Republic. ---

the beginning was actually a white hole, intense, and expanding into time and it's new found space.
i consider myself an agnostic, i feel no sense of certainty that there is a single all-powerful creator who made the entire universe, and yet i must acknowledge that the universe is a large place that is filled with much beauty so the possibility of an intelligent mind being behind it is certainly there.
lately, however, i do have more and more doubts about the god of the bible being a candidate for that all-powerful creator should such a being even exist at all.. these doubts are founded upon a number of questions for which i have never found any satisfying biblical or logical answer.
instead, i was simply chided with the remark that "god's actions aren't always meant to be understood by humans," which i found to be a very unsatisfying answer.
2 Questions for the wt,bible god:
1) did you expect us to read the bible, your word? --Then
2). why did you not read it yourself, first; proofreading for scientific errors, before publishing it?

GLT: "-That assumes a materialist point of view, that the creator would be of the same substances (matter, energy, space, time) as the things created.
not really, it assumes only that the first dimension, time, is fundamental and eternal.
The supposed creator of the multiverse would appropriately totally extend in that eternal dimension, but not moving through it,- as we do. He would always be bigger=older as his creation. no matter how big it gets. whereas the OP argues, that
a bigger creation= multiverse would shrink the creator by comparison.
Time is a dimension, what we experience is movement through time.
What really has shrunk is our ego , because we assumied we were quite significant, in the days the bible was written. We still live in the center of the universe though, but not the supposed multiverse.
