Thanks to bbarr for helping to establish the fact that absolutes do in fact exist.
"Don't be silly. I love absolutes. Here is one:
~(P&~P)."
Anyway, I was thinking about bio matrix(or is that biometrics?) and snow flakes or stripes on zebras.
Isn't it great to know that in this vast universe there are some things that will never change?(There's another one!)
Think of the implications! For example, it makes me wonder how such a thing can be. It's as if one could say that it is all by design. I mean, how can there be absolutes in a universe that came about by random chance?
Please reply. I can't wait to read them. 😉

From my view its highly plausible, even likely that the universe was created by design by a higher power or higher powers. Its just that I don't necessarily believe that Jewish Mythology explains better it than the mythology of any other ancient tribe of people.

That's too bad you don't. But you will once you have gathered enough information. i.e. Correct information or truth.

It's only logical isn't it? If a creator didn't create all that exists, then the only other option is random chance, no?
At least that's what I used to hear scientist say, that it was by random chance that the universe was formed. But of course I wouldn't be surprised if that idea was being expunged from the record in favor of some more palatable excuse for omitting God. 😕

For me that is the question, if there was ever a time where nothing was, than
where did it all come from?

And what does "came about by random chance" really mean? Surely the laws of probability (chance) are absolutes too?

Originally posted by KellyJayAnd to confound things even more, if there is in fact a God (as in the Christian God) that created all that exists then who or what created God? It simply can't be answered by us at this time. Thus all of us: Christians, atheists, Muslims, heathens, and so on are all equally clueless.
