Re: Multiple Universes = No God?
Ok, that all makes sense, Metacrock. :) I guess the only thing this new mathematical discovery changes is that now there is at least some probability that parallel universes could be more than just wishful thinking. And thank you, Jason, for clarifying this: I'm pretty sure it's supposed to be the o...

Re: TO OPEN
I think its that though we were made in God's image, Unred, we have a tendency to think of God as being in our image. We put God in a box; we limit Him to our conceptions of Him. We are like God in certain ways, but God is beyond us, beyond our full grasp and understanding. Still, I think it pleases...

Re: looks like it's just us
I think you're fun, Unred Typo. :mrgreen: Humility and humor are always refreshing-- and since as far as I know, we're the only two women here so far, I'm glad you're here to keep me company! I'm no intellectual heavy-weight either. Mostly I've just got some ordinary, common sense and a little educa...

Re: stupid to picket funeral
Actually, they will picket the funeral. http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,324966,00.html And it's not just stupid, it's infuriating. It's this kind of thing that gives the atheists so much fuel for their fires. First, these radical fundamentalist Christians think they have the inside scoop on a ma...

Re: Multiple Universes = No God?
welcome to the new boards. are you someone I've known before? Yeah, I'm Kristen Rosser. 8-) This is my username on other boards. I decided to try it out here-- see my post in the Theology section under "looks like it's just us." So you don't hold to the idea, Metacrock, that there are billions of m...

Re: Hillary
I'm a little turned off by Obama for two reasons: first, his lack of experience, particularly in foreign policy, and second, his tendency to cheerlead instead of giving real, substantive speeches. I hate hype and emotionalism, and I distrust bandwagons. "Change" as a mantra is not especially helpful...

Multiple Universes = No God?
The idea of multiple universes is a popular one today, and is an argument set forth to counteract the idea that the odds are against this universe having come about by random chance (necessitating a Creator). The argument as I understand it is that if there are muliple universes, then this universe ...

I'm Kristen Rosser. I've decided to register here, but to use a username I use on other boards. :) For the record, it wasn’t because of VisualFiction’s insults, per se, that I left “Sense of the Numinous.” It was because one of the moderators told me it was the policy of that forum to permit this ki...
