  Why does Bible present God as too imperfect?

  by economy in

  2. beliefs

  genesis 1:31 says: god saw all that he had made, and it was very good.

  in other words, god rated his works as perfect..

  if this is true, why his later works are too imperfect?

  Welcome economy,

  Keep going, you are in right direction. Don’t worry about WT—it’s like a rope mistaken as snake.

  Why can’t you follow a safer line?

  Be good to yourself and to others—thus making you good attracts good things towards you (Law of Attraction, and Law of Common Sense), Hence you have the reward now itself, here in this life itself.

  This is a safer line, because you do not loose whether God is there or not, whether He has some plans or not!

  Why involve God in our problems? Humans KNOW very well how to manage their affairs, but they ARE NOT WILLING to do so. This is where God has no role to play!

  Nokola Tesla had the technology to distribute electricity freely to people, yet commercial-minded scientists and governments did not want to go his way. This gives us a clue as to how our system of things works!

  What we know is to create WALLs and to channelize all our resources to strengthen them!

  What we have learned is to shift the blame on to others!

  Why should God intervene in our affairs?

  Coded Logic,

  All those atheists with whom I have had interaction hold the view that they don’t believe in God because they cannot see Him (means God must be subjected to their sense organ of eye)

  You are asking ‘How do I know God wouldn't be subject to the physical senses?’ I know because, only when I switch off all my senses—including the mind with its thinking power, I move into Delta frequency which gets me connected to God (which is almost like logging on to His qualities. This is the experience of all those who know how to meditate.

  Coded Logic , what you are asking me is already implied in what I wrote, and you are throwing back my ideas back to me in different wordings: If God is standing next to an atheist, how can the atheist know “difference between standing next to God and standing next to no one” as atheist is not prepared to go beyond PHYSICAL senses can go? How can atheist say somebody who cannot be subjected to physical senses does not exist while trusting only their PHYSICAL senses?

  Sometimes we are worse than some animals who sense tsunamis even before our sophisticated scientific equipments could do it and escape—something obviously humans could not? (http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2005/01/0104_050104_tsunami_animals.html)

  Atheists are prepared to go only till their scientific tools (which are dependent on your senses) can go. That means if an atheist is happened to be around a man whose senses do not work, then the existence of this very atheist will be in question!

  As the writer points out, atheists will cherish their own beliefs in privacy. For many of them, this life is all there is. There is nothing before, after or any time else, and following death, its a return to nothingness. Some atheists offer themselves whimsical comfort by saying that before this slice of life happened, there was an infinite period when we didn’t exist and after we die, there is going to be another infinity when we won’t either. Nevertheless since there is no evidence to the contrary we may find ourselves continuing in some kind of post-mortem existence, with no overtones of paradise, retribution or any kind of divine paraphernalia. Of course, this is an area that only fringe researchers explore, yet even some prestigious scientists, notably the impeccably credentialed Ian Stevenson, who was director of the Division of Personality Studies at the University of Virginia, have endorsed it. Among other things, he devoted the last 40 years of his life to the scientific documentation of past-life memories of children from all over the world. In the end, he had over 3, 000 cases on record in his files and many people, including sceptics and scholars, agree today that these offer the best evidence yet for life after death. But here is the twist: almost all non-spiritual atheists regard his work or the evidence he may have garnered over a lifetime as nonsense, while conveniently forgetting that Dr Stevenson was as much an atheist as any of them, if not more. Its just that some people believe in a far richer non-theistic experience than one that has only an arid landscape on the horizon with little other than chance and nothingness calling the shots.

  First law of thermodynamics vs God vs Big Bang

  by EndofMysteries in

  first law of thermodynamics, that energy cannot be created or destroyed but changed from one form to another.

  how does that fit in with god and the big bang to you?

  does it make one make more sense then the other to you?

  EndofMysteries

  Your question is most valid and the best I have read on this subject. First law of thermodynamics (that energy cannot be created or destroyed but changed from one form to another) is actually a death-dealing blow to both creationists and atheists alike.

  1) No creation is possible—means no creator.

  2) Changing from one form to another requires an Organizer (not creator) which means Scriptures like Bible are all wrong which says “In the beginning God CREATED the heavens and earth. This Organizer has not used any religious leaders to reveal about Himself, hence people have no idea—Who He is, Where He is …

  Imagine how much time and effort it took for us to extract hydrogen from water somewhat more efficiently—after trying many methods!

  http://inhabitat.com/clean-energy-breakthrough-safer-faster-method-discovered-to-extract-hydrogen-from-water/

  Hence it is not creation, nor a big-bang, but it is all about THE organizer who obviously prefers to remain undisclosed (for which He may have His own reason)!

  Cofty,

  I have found something very good in you--you have always full of praise for scientists. The essence of scientists is that they do not believe in superstition or lie, but will believe only if found something to be true AFTER experiment.

  Now it is your turn to experiment what you yourself say. Turning for truth about an organization towards its avowed enemies has nothing to do with experiment. If you really find out the truth, you will wonder how could you speak the way did!

  Viviane,

  This is not preaching, but sharing the concern and a deep feeling of helplessness. You may be aware 905 species are already extinct and 16,928 are listed as threatened to be extinct. (http://www.endangeredspeciesinternational.org/overview1.html)

  Stephen Hawkins extends possibility of extinction in the case of humans too. This is possible as humans know only to create wall and to strengthen it.
