Your life has exactly as much meaning as you give it, no more, no less. Nareed's life can easily have lots of significant meaning if it's being led following the bliss that Joe Campbell talks about. Follow your bliss and it will never lead you astray. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

I like The Donald, why are you complimenting me. It's not like you, you're usually mean and short tempered. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Seriously I can't believe you of all people are writing this. If there is anyone else that thinks I am mean and short tempered on this board I would love to hear it. “It is with the smallest brushes that the artist paints the most exquisitely beautiful pictures.” ( |

LOL. I love the Amway/Scamway analogy. Its green, its biodegradeable, its concentrated .... its got adjectives as well as antioxidants...but its still a bunch of over prices snake oil. |

| Dalex64 Member since: Mar 8, 2014 Threads: 3 Posts: 3687 | FrGamble I am having a hard time believing you are keeping an open mind on anything. A MIT scientist thinks intelligent life under different universal laws is possible http://www.dailygalaxy.com/my_weblog/2014/05/other-universes-may-operate-under-vastly-different-physical-laws-todays-most-popular.html Note the description of universes popping into and collapsing out of existance, all without suggesting that god is doing all of that creating. A newer theory points out that gravity is basically the opposite of energy, and the net of energy and gravity of the universe is zero. I'll find a link to an article about that some day. It is a way for a universe worth of energy and gravity to come into being without changing net energy. "Everyone is entitled to his own opinion, but not to his own facts." Daniel Patrick Moynihan |

| FrGamble Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 67 Posts: 7596 | Dalex you cannot read an article that is based on the reality of a "multiverse" and pass it off as something that is true. At best it is a theory that has not and maybe cannot be proven and worst it is an atheistic attempt at apologetics to explain the fine tuning of the universe by giving the universe many, many chances to get it right. Has anyone seen these pocket universes popping into existence and then collapsing again? If universes can do this why don't we see this behavior all around us and have other material things like giraffes and chairs just popping into existence randomly? “It is with the smallest brushes that the artist paints the most exquisitely beautiful pictures.” ( |

Just like god is 'theory only' with zero evidence to back it up. Yet you act like he's real. Don't get offended when others like the idea of their theories. Just because they're different than yours doesn't mean they can't have them. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

As far as I know nobody has seen a multiverse or experienced its love. It hasn't historically lived among us and changed human history. A multiverse doesn't logically have to exist and a multiverse doesn't solve or answer the question of something coming from nothing. “It is with the smallest brushes that the artist paints the most exquisitely beautiful pictures.” ( |

As far as I know nobody has seen or experienced a god. Hearsay and myth count for nothing. Less than nothing, actually. They just silly sound with no evidence to back them up. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Why is it, you think this type of question is only applicable when you use it? If you use it, someone is allowed to use the same type of challenge against you. And we will also show that you failed to prove something did not happen. It's a simpleton's ruse. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |
