based upon descriptions in the bible and what is known scientifically so far, what would god actually be?
lightning comes out of the throne.
no man may see and live.
He would be a being of pure energy. An intelligent being out of energy.
Wat kind of energy? What does that mean? How does energy organize thoughts? Is that what spirit is made of, pure energy? Remember, energy doesn't necessarily = electricity. If God is pure electrical energy, then (s)he cannot be omniscient and omnipotent.
is atheism a belief system.
after all the atheist believes there is no god .so if that's the case then an atheist if a person of faith.
they have faith in the fact there is no god.
When we think of nothing, there are no properties.
That's the point of the book. You should read it to clear up any confusion.
But what Krauss is showing based upon my answering of your explanation, is that once you have the building blocks then a creator is not needed.
You haven't read the book, so you really have no idea what Krauss is or isn't showing.

Does science prove that something can exist from nothing . If it can then that means if i lock an empty room for 100 billionyears when i open the door again it will be full of furniture right or wrong
Yes!

I learned that in elementary school science, a thing called, "The law of conservation of energy", which states that energy can be neither created nor destroyed. Or are you saying this scientific fact had new light like the WT and no longer applies?
They must have taught you wrong. That's not what conservation of energy is.
it's claimed it takes 400 million atoms to become a single strand of dna.
how do the atoms know.
3. what order.
Im asking how do 400 million atoms know where to go at the right time and what to do
They don't.
fusion with god natural .
in the cosmos universe or whatever.
all things are made of the same materials etc so humans will always be fused with the universe in life and death because those building blocks are eternal.

Under certain conditions, no.
Absolutely untrue. That article describes papers that explore the possibility that photons, as they travel great distances, may be absorbed and re-emitted from virtual particles enough times to distort the speed of light measurements enough to throw off our measurement of the size of the universe.
The speed of massless particles ina vacumn is still, by all measurement and math, constant.
i try ... i really try to watch football (soccer) ... it's world cup time ... i really do try.. i just don't get it ... i really don't.. yes, it's a world-wide sport.
in most countries it is the number 1 or number 2 sport ... no doubt about it.
it's maybe number 5 in the usa for professional sports.. from an american's perspective (i think i speak for many), we just wonder if these guys actually have testicles.
It is a game for people who have an attention span of more than 5 minutes.
American football progresses 10 seconds at a time and breaks for TV ads every few minutes.
It's just a succession of set pieces. No creativity.
Once you get it, its not just 22 players rushing around, its a tactical challenge that requires a huge level of technical skill and athleticism.
Seriously, why are adults engaging in the childish sport of favorites. Secondly, why is it that everything said can, in some way, be applied to the other side and everyone arguing pretends they are right?
Enjoy the sports you like. You don't have to put down the ones you don't care for to enjoy yours. It's not a contest to see who is more popular. Best does is no way most popular.
i have come to the conclusion that science cannot prove or disprove the existence of god.
however the scientific evidence available is compelling enough for me to believe that a creator is responsible for life on earth.. i have read much about powner and understand the work he is doing.
i am interested in your views as to his credibility.
There you go again. Off topic remarks. I have not made claims I have given you my opinion about you since you don't want to tell me your true motives.
Those are ignorant claims no matter how you try to wordsmith your way out of it. If you think I shouldn't respond to your repeatedly corrected, incorrect and ignorant claims about me, then you should stop making OT comments regarding me.
You whole post is like a firring squad of stupid questions merely designed as an attack.
I am asking questions regarding your claims. If you find that troublesome, that's really your problem and should give you pause to consider why you feel the need to repeatedly make incorrect and ignorant claims about me instead of simply discussing how you arrived at a conclusion and determined something was evidence.
It's an example of you being confrontational and aggressive in a way that I find unhelpful to most posters here.
You don't speak for most posters.
You are being willfully ignorant of my perspective just to try an annoy me on purpose.
I am trying to figure out your perspective by asking questions. It's really your problem that questions related to your posts annoy you.
It's Friday night here in the UK I have better things to do than play on my computer with you Viv. I did have some fun though we could have some real fun if I come and visit you in Texas mister Kate xx
Texas? What in the world are you talking about? Is this related to the PM you sent me claiming to know all sorts of things about me and got all of them wrong? You seem to do that a lot.

In my opinion having a conclusion, is not making a claim, having a belief is not making a claim. I have expressed multiple times that the evidence is soley for me not proof to anyone else. But I can understand why you can't grasp any of what I am saying, you need concrete facts to satisfy your curiosity and you get irritated when you don't have any concrete proof.
What do you consider making a claim if it's not "I think X because of reasons Y and Z"? You just made three incorrect claims about me, one of what I need, one of what I understand and one my emotional state, all ignorant of actual information.
I on the other hand have the ability to make higher order abstractions and that's part of my thinking process. To understand this you have to think out of the box Viv.
Abstract thinking is the ability to understand genral concepts from specific examples. You are not unique in that, but making claims that things are connected in an abtract way does require specific examples and supporting data. What is that? Simply claiming I don't understand how to think like you is not showing how you moved from the specific to the abstract.
Hydrogen bonds should not be possible in nature, but they are there, hydrogen and oxygen do not bond like this in organic molecules.
Why, specifically, should hydrogen bonds (which technically is neither a covalent nor an ionic bond but rather an electrostatic dipole-dipole interaction) not be possible in nature?
I am satisfied this process is guided by God, other chemical analysts may not be.
Why? How do you get from "hydrogen bond" to "God did it"?
So in conclusion science in the case of hydrogen bonds proves nothing as reagrds to the existence of God
You did claim that it did to you when you wrote "When I look at the hydrogen bonding in water, clouds and rain, the desalination process I see how God makes water". I am interested in how that is evidence for something that, so far, can't be defined in terms of what it is comprised of, detected, described in specific terms or proven to exist. What is the connective logic and specific evidence that gets you there?
when i first started going on "other" jw websites my head was spinning so i didn't say anything to my kids about what i had read.
steve hassan's material helped a lot it was when i read that, that i realised i need to free my kids.. i got a lot of advice from jwn too.. my daughter had moved cities and went to the hall we used to visit frequently.
things changed when she became a member instead of just a visitor.
Oh, I also used a lot from this website: http://academic.cuesta.edu/acasupp/as/403.htm
