How could his interest be held in something he finds no meaning?<br /><br />Physics is great for probing into our world and finding the intricate and perfect systems that we live among.<br /><br />Searching for the reason the universe began and accounting it to gravity something that brings us all together is a nice thought.<br /><br />MaxAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22117033.post-21236954725822784242011-03-05T07:55:52.723-08:002011-03-05T07:55:52.723-08:00Max, yes I am saying that.

However, to simply voice such a notion as fact, as Hawking did, is both arrogant and irresponsible. <br /><br />Yes, maybe the flying spaghetti monster that atheists like to bring up, did indeed create the universe. "Let us not reject a legitimate possibility simply because it seems incomprehensible in human terms."<br /><br />On the other hand, the same argument can also be used to state that God exists, even though we cannot explain his existence with human logic. I prefer this explanation to that of Hawking, as it has some clues to support it (e.g. the near death experience, the mystical experience, etc), if not actual proof, that it is true.Stogiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05852841950131130696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22117033.post-3029111692395273882011-01-15T17:50:06.770-08:002011-01-15T17:50:06.770-08:00I think you contradict yourself. On the one hand, ...I think you contradict yourself. On the one hand, you have a mysterian view of the universe and think it cannot be explained with human logic (which I agree with, although I think we don't know for sure). But on the other hand, you summarily dismiss what, according to your logic, is a legitimate if humanly incomprehensible possibility.Matthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16992537391516437848noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22117033.post-66440737544481782642010-10-25T22:30:03.335-07:002010-10-25T22:30:03.335-07:00Anonymous, you haven't supported your strange ...Anonymous, you haven't supported your strange opinion with any logic, so I can't give it much credibility.<br /><br />Jesus may have been delusional, but he was no narcissist. He preached "love your neighbor as yourself" and died a horrible death in the belief that he was saving mankind. That is a strange definition of "narcissim."<br /><br />God, if he does exist, is no doubt more complicated than your ability to understand him.
