Amen, sister!!
@Carazaa So God must have been himself designed by an even greater designer. That's who you should be worshipping.

No. He was always here and always will be here.
@GodSpeed63 Or, he doesn't exist, and the structure we see is an emergent property of matter and energy. Where did the matter and energy come from? It was always here and always will be here.

@LeopoldBloom Always? How do you know? God says that everything we see is mortal, and will be consumed in fire, and everything that we don’t see is eternal!
@Carazaa The same science that explains how your computer works, explains other things we observe. Matter and energy can change back and forth into each other, but can never be created or destroyed. That's based on observation, not an arbitrary interpretation of stories in an old book.

"Consumed in fire" sounds like something a person who lived thousands of years ago would have written, when nothing more destructive than ordinary fire was even imaginable.

@LeopoldBloom Everything is created except the eternal God!

@LeopoldBloom
So if energy can’t be created where did it come from if not from God? And if your guess is correct then when you die your soul would continue right?

Who, in turn, must have been designed by an even greater one and so on [i]ad infinitum[/i].

Prove it and then show why the quantum singularity wasn't always here.

That's called "special pleading". There's no evidence to support that view.

@Sharon You gotta learn to submit hun. You know that!
😂
Carazaa · F
@Sharon It is the truth and the truth shall set you free!

@Carazaa [quote]It is the truth [/quote]
Saying it's the truth doesn't make it so. In fact, saying it but offering no real evidence in support makes it less likely to be the truth. I can just as easily, with equal justification, say it's a lie and that lie will entrap you.

@Sharon
It is observed in Christian countries and by scientists from Christian universities, and happy Christian families who produce top scientists who receive top awards in every field . Most Nobel prize winners come from Christian families! What a coincidence! My dad was asked to give the award in medicine! He was top doctor in his specialty and was offered to come to the USA and work in research and teach. He comes from a long line of Christian pastors and authors. It is a guarantee for success! I’m writing two books and I think they will sell! God is good!
Sharon · F
@Carazaa Without some evidence in support, those are just empty claims. You do that a lot. I could make the same claims about Atheists or members of other religions. I could add that my father won a Nobel Prize too. What does that prove?
Carazaa · F
@Sharon
Yeah, like I said that’s why there is so much emigration from those successful happy countries that are Muslim, atheistic, Buddhist, Siek and Hindu governments. yeah!

Corruption, war, poverty and misery is probably more like the situation in those countries! They are so happy and successful that they are dying to leave! There’s your proof, yeah!

Goodnight!

There isn't though! You need to check your sources!
Carazaa · F
@Sharon
There isn’t? Want to think again? Syrians went to Scandinavia, Indians to califormia, Russians and South Koreans went to many countries, and the most corrupt, Sadistic and atheist North Koreans can’t leave at all!
Sharon · F
@Carazaa [b]Some[/b] people from those countries went to other counties but it wasn't long ago that you were complaining that Scandinavia (specifically Sweden) is not longer christian. The USA is officially secular too.

In the same way, some highly educated people from the christian UK (which is actually a christian theocracy) are leaving for secular countries.

Want to think again?
Carazaa · F
@Sharon Hence the problems in U.K., Scandinavia, and the USA! God says [b]The country whose God is the Lord, [i]will[/i] be blessed![/b]

Make your mind up. A few minutes ago you claimed they were christian countries that everyone from non-christian countries wanted to move to.

Actually, as I said, the UK is a christian theocracy with the head of the Church of England as Head of State and unelected representatives of that church in Parliament. UK schools are also required by law to promote christianity and hold daily, "broadly christian" religious assemblies of all their students.

@Sharon well I wouldn't like to live in a country under atheistic or Muslim control
