I was just talking with a Russian Phd research scientist at a party last weekend who believes that “science has disproved all that religious God stuff.”  He is going through a marital breakup. We talked about Jesus, etc.  We invited him to church.  He said he might come.

This collection of papers by experts--more than half of whom are scientists--will be a valuable resource to those who wrestle with such problems.

However the mind/brain is physical.  That leaves the consciousness, which I believe is part of our soul/spirit, is it not? God did not breath the physical into Adam, but the spirit.  Do you agree or disagree?

I am not willing to enter this debate. I don't have the stomach to battle this one. -- slade -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]On Behalf Of ShieldsFamily Sent: Monday, 20 December, 2004 11.33 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: [TruthTalk] TOE revisited Upon what scripture do you base that belief?
