question please. faith about what?

how? no desert.

Prior to the big bang there were atoms and lots & lots of extremely weird subatomic particles, but they were DISORDERED!!!!

Given enough random chances at bringing the swirling, disorganized cosmic soup all together and it eventually became ORDERED in an event named DA BEEG BANG!

It was merely a statistical anomaly, and nothing prevents the universe from becoming disordered once more--the principle of entropy.

And then maybe it becomes ordered again...see, a big breathing, pulsing conversion takes place on time scales of billions of years that we can't comprehend.

Easy, right? That'll be $1.45. Thanks.

Don't charge his chair for a few days.

He'll come around then.

Really?

JT #60--it seems clear that you know next to nothing about religion...i have NEVER heard in church that God made only us in the entire universe...

in fact, the entire universe is rarely, if ever, talked about in church...at least the ones i have attended.

-----------------------

Your reading comprehension is lacking - I admitted to not knowing MUCH about religion, so thanks for making the assertion that I know next to nothing about it. I know some, I just don't care to know more. Contrast that with how some Bible-thumpers just know a little (or no) science, but don't care to know more about it... sure, they might know what an electron is, but they wouldn't have the slightest idea about quantum mechanics.

Apparently your churches must refer to a different thing when they say "the heavens," which is all I ever hear about... "the heavens this," or "the heavens that." To me, "the heavens" means the universe - all that is not "Earthly," i.e. the universe. You probably don't hear the word "universe" in the Bible because back then that word didn't exist (probably because those two words have the same meaning in a religious sense). You have to remember, these were a crude people back then - they thought the Earth was flat and at the center of everything while the Heavens (read "universe") revolved around them. I seem to bump into a few people nowadays who still fit that bill, it's rather sad.

again, i have never heard in any church that i have gone to that EARTH was the only planet supporting life "in the heavens". i would agree to your assertation that most Christians do not understand quantum physics...but i would like to add EVERY group except scientist and engineers to that pinhole...like this: "sure, atheists might know what an electron is, but they wouldn't have the slightest idea about quantum mechanics." or "sure, salespeople might know what an electron is, but they wouldn't have the slightest idea about quantum mechanics." "sure, cbid asshats might know what an electron is, but they wouldn't have the slightest idea about quantum mechanics."

your sense of logic eludes me......or is it that your sense eludes logic.....and i hope those last 2 lines are referring to ignorant PEOPLE in general and not Christians specifically.
