Wow An interesting thread for me to happen across as a newbie here. coming in late as it were I don't really know where to start. So i wont. Yet. Well ok I'll give it a bit of a go: eh? |

Just because you think you don't understand something, doesn't mean he doesn't either. What ClouD is speaking about cannot be explained in clear and certain terms because language is always limited to the finite. One cannot piece together the Infinite from the finite; one can only 'be' it. It is this 'being' that is the 'understanding'; ontology is theophany, and it is from this theophany that we can 'know' our source. |

I thought genetics was to do with passing genes on to our descendents. But maybe some buddhist monks in a cave somewhere have discovered the ultimate workings of DNA, and have the knowledge required to splice genes in, coding for instinctual knowledge of their choosing. Now that would be scary. Imagine being biologically forced to "know" that George W. Bush is emperor of the universe! |
|
LoL That would be scary. Genetic science now theorizes that knowledge may be passed from one generation to another through genetics. Much like the migration patterns of birds and such. Not Aunt Suzzie had blond hair kinda knowledge, but truths of the universe type. It is the use of only 6 to 10 % of our physical brain that keeps us from actualizing the data. This by the 90% of "junk" DNA that we have. |

The needle on which 'i' attempt to tie a thread, so that it might see more than just the point. |

You merely have to change your point of view slightly, and then that glass will sparkle when it reflects the light.
I don't know about truths of the universe being passed genetically, and "junk" DNA is turning out not to be so, but it is true that environmental things like diet can have genetic effects that are passed on to the descendants. |
|
People who believe that are only using 10% of their brain power (not 'brainz'). |

I can actually answer that one... I don't refuse to understand anything. You make it harder to understand for no apparent reason. You have important, and informative things say why not just come out and say it? The only thing I don't really understand is 'why?' you choose to be so cryptic. |
|
So... You veil your meaning in cryptic words so that anyone who lacks the "mental dexterity" to decipher it (and 'therefore' the intelligence required to make a meaningful argument) is unable to make any objection besides that of your words being cryptic. |
|
Esoteric nonsense. Those who don't believe aren't going to anyway. Esoteric teachings like th Kabalah are designed to keep some "special" secret from prying eyes. Thus keeping it safe. It also inflates the ego of the one "knowing" them. Shamanism can be much the same, passed down verbally from master to apprentice. |

Come now. Do you really expect anyone to get anything meaningful out of something like this? |

It depends on what form god was proved as e.g. Bearded man in the sky, living consciousness in all living things, formless creator e.t.c. |

God to me lives in the fouth dimnsion. If it were true it would explain alot of things like how he would be able to judge us when we die because in the 4th dimension time is physical and god would be able to look at our whole lives in an instant. also the 4th dimension would give another direction to what we already know. ie up,down,left,right,forward and back. Maybe the next direction would be from dimension to dimension. It would also explan how some granite rock on earth was formed in under a day when usually granite takes over billions of years to form. |

That makes so much sense! That's it, I'm converting on the spot! |

That explains it. |

I, as a former atheist, do consider myself to have discovered the existence of God, and I feel no need to either praise, or service him. I see him as neither omnipotent nor omniscient. I see The third part of God, the Holy Ghost, as being the universal consciousness that we are all a part of, neither more or less apart of than the Father. Furthermor I see the Father as being in his position at the top of Heaven as being a result of karma earned in the previous incarnation of the Universe. I see his supposition that he is all powerful not to be his own fault but one of the tricks of the universal law that one is not naturally aware of existence higher than themselves. He is merely King, as in the legitimate leader. The definition of legitimate is that he has power only because we give it to him. |

Everything works out in the end, sometimes even badly.
