His work on 'rubber hose' cryptanalysis is fascinating, and dare I say
perhaps even relevant today (for him in this very instance)! I was eying
that insurance.aes256 thing tempted to download it and use some work
computers to crunch, but the boss wouldn't pay me for such 'fun' time
and winters in MI are expensive heatwise.

How ridiculous to charge him due to a leaky condom or not using one.
Could the women be charged with entrapment? Well, I think the
comparison is apt considering Luther took on the Papacy. William
Manchester had a terrific book- I forget the title- on Catholic
scandals which included the botched attempt to nip Luther in the bud.
Also recall that "kingdom for a horse" phrase...I gave a bad marriage
another try over a station wagon which shocked my mother. Oh well,
don't worry about my tombstone unless it is pizza!

Na, that door won't open! Just like the demand to back up your
existence with your tombstone! To be a human being, Francis, the trick
is to keep breathing! Just like time only exists in its substantial
sense! Thanks for reminding us, RP.

Worms to our can of worms? From 95 Theses to ? Think about it. :-)

Why think of time in any sense at all , but doesn't it seem reasonable to
believe that there have always been universes and life and death will
continue in infinity whereas it is accepted that this universe began and
will end. My point is that like God Creation with a chain of universes will
continue in eternity.

RP I don't think that time exists in a substantial sense, except to
explain sequences of events or provide reference states/events. From what we
do know of it, if I am correct, time is relative, and I am beginning to
think of it similarly to gravity. In my view the present can and the past
has been affected by the future. Through this I accept causality but deny
determinism.
Now why cloak explanation in very human terms like happiness and
loneliness? What is pleasurable and painful to this trans-being? This
implies to me a changeful One, not eternal and omnipotent in the linear
senses usually attributed. But something alive, with living parts which have
an impact on the whole. Sorry if I am putting words in your mouth, care to
clarify more?

Ash my meaning is that God finds his happiness in his creation and
therefore , though universes have a beginning and an end , Creation has no
beginning and no end as there would always be universes before and after the
present universes. In other words there would be no beginning or end of
time.

This leads us to the question of the existence of our universe at all, if
a being existed: omnipresent, omniscient, eternal; what point would there be
to creating our universe?

Francis , if creation were to have a beginning and an end the eternity of
God would have no meaning as it is in creation that God's presence is felt.
God would have become a very lonely fellow.

RP, I've asked the question before and I'll ask it again:
Who sez?
Any of us can make pronouncements ... about anything. The trick is to
back them up.

There is no beginning or end of God. He is eternal. There is no
beginning or end of creation. Before this universe there were other
universes and after this universe there will be other universes. In
fact there is no point in time when there was a first universe or
there will be a last universe. God and Creation are both eternal , it
is us beings that are finite.- Hide quoted text -
