Ahh ... but what "God".
Go to sea and look into the sky some dark cloudless night. You will see
countless stars in such a display it may give you virtigo. Now consider
that
some stars you see aren't there any more, long since burned out, while the
light from most has been traveling toward you since before Earth, let
alone
man, began. Think about the power and majesty of any God that could have
created all this - and the tiny atoms - as well all working in synch.
Pause
a moment ..... reflect on it.
Now, if you can, imagine this same all powerful, all knowing God hoofing
his way across an Earthly desert in the noonday sun on his way to check
out
*rumors* that villages were being disobedient. Can your imagination
stretch
farther? Then try to imagine some petty con man inviting "God" into his
tent for a veal sandwich and if that doesn't get a laugh imagine "God"
promising this dude all the land between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers
if - hold your breath - he will cut off the end of his penis! And all his
sons' penises! Now imagine that "God" lied! Despite following orders
Abie
doesn't get his land and his descendents have to sell themselves as slaves
in Egypt. Quite a story, right?
Well Vito, I'm very impressed. You obviously have the ability to understand
how God thinks.
You should share your knowledge with the world! The rest of us are just
insignificant, and fairly unintelligent inhabitants of a small planet,
orbiting an average star, in an average galaxy that contains 1000 billion
stars, in a universe that contains more than 100 billion galaxies. We
cannot even start to comprehend the thoughts of the Creator.... and we
wouldn't presume to understand His motives.
As you obviously have a greater understanding of God than the rest of us,
perhaps you can answer a couple of simple questions.
Why is Pioneer not accelerating at the speed that Einstein's Theories
predict?
Is Hawkings correct? Could the Universe have created itself
spontaeneously(sp?)?
Regards
Donal
