So what was the question and what was the answer? I would appreciate an answer Tony.. private email is good.. you are not the only one.
تجنب. القتل والاغتصاب واستعباد الآخرين Avoid; murder, rape and enslavement of others -----Original Message----- From: "'facilitator' via \"Minds Eye\"" <[email protected]> To: [email protected] Sent: Tue, 17 Mar 2015 6:43 AM Subject: Re: Mind's Eye Einstein and the Mystics If we assume God (god) exists than we must also realize that we can only grasp what is made known to us. In other words, we will never be able to analyze god without some given knowledge. The creation can never be above the creator. If the sum total of all creation is greater than the creator than the concept or reality of a god is superfluous. The parts are never greater than the machine that produced them. The universe appears oddly large. For something that (possibly) started as a singularity the amount of mass in the entire (known) universe is ridiculously enormous. One galaxy would have been sufficient. Something larger is at work. Why all the ratios, gears and pulleys in our own solar system? We as a planet are in two sweet spots, one is where we are in the Milky Way itself and the other is our mass and distance from the sun. Not to mention our magnetosphere, it's all too convenient. Our land to water ratio doesn't hurt us either. We wouldn't survive without Jupiter or the Moon. The Moon does many different things other than keep us from wobbling apart, and make dogs howl! We can solve all of the scientific problems of the universe except the "why". The "Why" is the uncuttable piece. It is the carrot at the end of the stick. The starting point for science and religion become the same. "We believe it to be so, so it is". The breakdown occurs when the science zealots want to shove theory down our throats as fact and the religionist can't seem to generate enough spiritual "enlightenment" to cleanse a few lepers or drop kick a person back to life after succumbing to rigor mortis. (I've been to the shouting, forehead slapping revivals.) The only thing that seems to flow is the money. I believe. I don't believe. Seems simple enough. The corporate beliefs are much less palatable. We all must believe in climate change or we become "deniers". We all must believe in a particular religious doctrine or we are banished. I am both a creationist and a scientist. I want to know more. I am not satisfied with the current shopping cart of ideas. When I was seven years old God spoke to me in an "audible" (I only heard it in my head I think) voice. I asked a question. Got an answer and my quest for knowledge never ceased. I will never classify it as a religious experience. It was too profound to delegate it to "religion". "Even the least skillful artist can draw a conclusion".
