"Not so much a where we came from more a where are we. Came across this a few weeks ago and it blew my mind. https://uk.screen.yahoo.com/space-playlist/209-seconds-entire-existence-025213384.html?soc_src=default (Mr or Mrs Mod if this is not allowed please remove)" . Ha I liked that kinda made me think of the old Monty python song. Just remember that you're standing on a planet that's evolving And revolving at nine hundred miles an hour, That's orbiting at nineteen miles a second, so it's reckoned, A sun that is the source of all our power. The sun and you and me and all the stars that we can see Are moving at a million miles a day In an outer spiral arm, at forty thousand miles an hour, Of the galaxy we call the 'Milky Way'. Our galaxy itself contains a hundred billion stars. It's a hundred thousand light years side to side. It bulges in the middle, sixteen thousand light years thick, But out by us, it's just three thousand light years wide. We're thirty thousand light years from galactic central point. We go 'round every two hundred million years, And our galaxy is only one of millions of billions In this amazing and expanding universe. The universe itself keeps on expanding and expanding In all of the directions it can whizz As fast as it can go, at the speed of light, you know, Twelve million miles a minute, and that's the fastest speed there is. So remember, when you're feeling very small and insecure, How amazingly unlikely is your birth, And pray that there's intelligent life somewhere up in space, 'Cause there's bugger all down here on Earth. | |||

Ok, I'm not going to be an apologist for the bible, especially for a story that I believe to have more metaphorical meaning than literal but it only specifically names some of the animals that went on the ark but quite clearly says that all of them were on there. The fact that we didn't know them till much later is totally irrelevant to the story. | |||

"I am an Atheist - I was raised as a Christian, but I have come to my own decisions about life, the universe and everything (42, lol) Take the Bible for instance, particularly the Old Testament. We know that the planet is 4.5 billion years old, was a bi-product of the creation of our Sun and that the Universe is almost 14 billion years old - This is a matter of scientific fact But the Old Testament would have us believe that it took 6 days to create (and THEN created the light) and that the first species to exist on Earth was, yep you guessed it, mankind. No mention of dinosaurs then - who just happen to have been the most successful species on this planet to date. Dinosaurs - over 150 million years in existence. Mankind, around 100,000 years. So when 'God' was telling all his follows about how he made the Earth etc, did he just forget about the dinosaurs (and Kangaroos), or didn't he think we'd be interested? Just imagine it 'Well, yes, I did have a go at other forms of life, but after 150 million years I thought i'd wipe them out and start from scratch with you lot' Also, if there is some all powerful being that looks out for us etc then please explain.... Disease (Ebola, for one, leaps to mind) Famine War (most of which are caused by religion incidentally) " Except that most wars are not incidentally caused by religion but by creed for other peoples land, wealth or power. You should look more closely at what causes war before making such a rash statement. | |||

"It was always there, scientist have manipulated us to think we came from the big bang lol what did they smoke when they came up with that idea. Basically we have always existed, humans alwais have to some kind of idea how everything works and things, not me tho " Laid back attitude but understanding how things work enlightens us surely...otherwise diseases would still be seen as possessed by the devil/ gods will etc....just you enjoy the bright flashy light box in your living room tho lol | |||

"Simple answer - we don't know - and religion and science just illustrate how conceited mankind is. One thing is for sure - who or whatever created it - mankind WILL destroy it - just look around you to see what a disgusting species we are" We do know though, or at least we have the best answer that science can come up with at this moment in time!, if one chooses to disbelieve this that's your business but please don't mention science with religion there's no beliefs in science just facts and there's no facts in religion just beliefs.. One things for sure, this planet will still be spinning long after humans have gone, it could be the only trace we'll leave in a billion years time is our pollution!. | |||

"I cant believe the universe and all the miracles of life just started from a big bang that came from nowere..I do believe some higher superpower that is well beyond human intellect gave a nudge and a push for this supposed big bang to happen." .You know it's just as likely statistically that your just a computer simulation and none of this exists than it is that you were made by a "higher power" through a miracle. | |||

" Anyhow all this Adam and eve stuff and it turns out were all descendants of Noah... Talk about keeping it in the family " There's a 'Lot' of that sort of thing in the bible. (See what I did there? ) I read the Universe was created when the previous universe stopped expanding and collapsed back in on itself, creating the massive explosion that was the big bang. They never explained who created the previous one though! I'm relatively laid-back about the concept of a supreme being, setting up all the laws of physics, fate, etc. I'm just not sure, given the size of the universe, they're really that fussed about that little white lie I told.

If your speaking in past tense it's perfectly acceptable to say no people knew they existed until 1610. | |||

"Who or what created the universe and how was it created ...... I was looking at the film about Noah s Ark over christmas made me think ." You make a presumption it had a beginning No evidence yet to suggest matter energy to a fundamental degree has not always existed No evidence to suggest all we see is all there is Lots of data illustrating what we see was once closer however to date no convincing data to lead me to belief of a singularity Logic will always negate any prime mover argument at its most fundamental Honestly , I find understanding evolution through the eyes of Attenborough far more time rewarding than wild speculation without any real data to feed upon x | |||

"Basically we have always existed How is that possible ? There has to have been a start point" No there does not have to a start or and end in either time or space. A ball is a simple example of something that has no start or end in space. While current scientific theory suggests that the observable universe is finite in time most philosophical thinking leans towards something infinite in time and space that the observable universe is either created from or buy. For those who choose to believe that infinite thing is an ever present all powerful God. As yet science has not determined what the infinite thing is or even if anything outside the observable universe even exists. | |||

"The Universe has always been in existence - because there was no time until there was the Universe, so there has never been a time when the Universe did not exist.... " That was the official scientific answer up until recently. But really that's just as much of a cop out as saying 'Gog created it because God said he did' Now science is trying to address what, if anything, existed "before" time and space started. And yes I know you can't have a "before" time in any sensible way but there is no other word to use. " Either that, or is was a Vogon Constructor Fleet wot done it.... " | |||

"I cant believe the universe and all the miracles of life just started from a big bang that came from nowere..I do believe some higher superpower that is well beyond human intellect gave a nudge and a push for this supposed big bang to happen."

"Yep that and the fact nobody knew they existed till 1610 ... I think there are a lot of Aboriginal Australians who would be very offended with your assertion that they do not count as people... ..No they wouldn't, they didn't even know the rest of the world existed 2000 years ago, just as we didn't know they existed nor kangaroos. If your speaking in past tense it's perfectly acceptable to say no people knew they existed until 1610." Right, I am put in my place... Only we are people, and that's OK provided Its all in the past tense. | |||

There is no evidence that the big bang started from anything. Science only suggest that the big bang happened. Currently it says nothing about what caused it, whether it's part of something that existed before it or around it. Anything said about what was 'before' the observable universe or what the observable universe is 'surrounded' by is either believe or speculation. | |||

Of course as the forum has illustrated god is a useless and meaningless word So using such logic I'm happy with the fact that God is smegma Of course there is zero reason to reason smegma has any part in the occurance of any of the possible universal developments To my observance nothing that is unique to any of the human invented god concepts especially the monotheistic ones that can be rationalised to any observed, observable or logically inferred data It's perfectly reasonable for us all to imagine our origins , however there are an infinite number of nonsense ideas and within debate it's not unreasonable to request a logical reasoning behind a vocalised conclusion ? Surely no one really wants to throw an idea out there contains so little validation ? And expect to be viewed as credible ? | |||

"The main problem with religion, it was created to explain the things (including creation) that science had yet to prove. Give science a few more years and someone will come up with the answers. Understanding the answer may not be so easy. " The only problem with that is that as science discovers more it also discovers there is even more to be discovered. So I doubt science will ever answer all the questions we'll ever have even if it does manage to answer at some point all the questions we currently have. | |||

"I cant believe the universe and all the miracles of life just started from a big bang that came from nowere..I do believe some higher superpower that is well beyond human intellect gave a nudge and a push for this supposed big bang to happen. You struggle to reason or understand the plausibility of exceptionally simple elements compounding to form exceptionally simple replicating compounds I don't see how a believe in a supper being means you can't accept the plausibility of some evolutionary process. Yet find it easy to see plausibility in something complex beyond comprehension has always existed then retrospectively making finitely simple life ? Anything to do with what existed before time itself started is by definition beyond any human comprehension. My comment had nothing to do with super being and evolution not being compatible ? It was a direct comment regarding his statement that could not grasp an evolutionary beginning yet could accept the most ultimate thing ever conceived could just exist It's always the creator regression id if you need greatness to design complexity you alwayp logically require a designer of your designer As for comprehension of the unknown ? Comprehension means understanding not knowledge As yet we have no knowledge this does not mean the future discoveries will be beyond our understanding It is quite plausible light or energy from beyond what we are currently aware can eventually stumble accross earth giving new insight into time beyond 14 billion ish years , it maybe traveling so far we will have to wait 278627 billion years to see it .

"Ok Some say " you can't have clever stuff without a cleverer stuff maker " Cool clever stuff makers are clever " you can't have clever stuff without a cleverer stuff maker " Cool clever stuff makers must be very clever " you can't have clever stuff without a cleverer stuff maker " So the stuff maker needs a maker Yes but that maker is even more clever " you can't have clever stuff without a cleverer stuff maker " Now this can go on a while shall we say ? Infinity ? Regressing to a non plausible non logical non conclusion because just as you find a creator must exist to make clever stuff then " you can't have clever stuff without a cleverer stuff maker " Simple stuff always existing And evolving negates the circular non logic So does nothing existing at then how did it turn into something Don't say the creator because we just said nothing , creator equals something and that something will always hold the intrinsic complexity of stuff able to create ie complex" Bottom line point every idea that the creationist feels a creator solves , let's say laws of physics or gravity "where they come from ah they must have been created " are always vastly less complex than the creator manifestation used to explain them Ok so hard to grasp the precursors to gravity quarks and bosons(like the higgs but there are more ) may have perpetually have existed but the creator must be all they are and, and, and, and vastly more | |||

As for those who do not understand the infinite regression fact it's a bit chicken and egg but without the logical conclusion x egg btw I understand the infinite regression concept. What is not possible to understand and fully comprehend is both nothing and something infinite in a universe that seems to be finite in time. If time only started when the observable universe started then it's difficult to comprehend of a time before time. I have no reason to believe the cosmos is neither infinite in time or dimensions ? As for your logic if stuff exists it must have been created at some point , bosh back to infinite regression x I never said that everything that exists must have been created, in fact my whole argument is that at some point of iteration something infinite must exist. You have indeed used the word created a lot so forgive my sleepy misread lol Your argument has not ttherefore been with me as I can illustrate repeatedly above where I reason it being perfectly plausible to postulate something fundamental existing without beginning , where I feel we are going to differ is the complexity of the something , where you have already declared yourself an advocate of a monotheism I may be so bold to assume your something has , it's handy man badge ? You're right, we probably would not agree on what the nature of the infinite would be but I see no more point in arguing about belief than in how many angels may dance on the head of a needle. My logical, reasond argument ends at there having to be something infinite. Beyond reason there is only belief or speculation and, until something comes along to prove otherwise, all should be equally respected and tolerated. My logical journey could not stop there , I have no comprehension of how any human can form the strong position of belief without logical data to support the believed story ? To believe something not only means a person thinks it may be possible or plausible but they think truth is at the heart ? To take this stance and be honest with oneself to my mind would require data to support the story . Without data, I'd suggest belief is an inaccurate description of the emotional hope or faith ." And there in lies the difference. For me belief requires nothing except belief. In fact I would go further than that. If there is empirical proof or rational argument then you have no need for belief because you have knowledge. That's why belief is a choice. Your belief that something, that cannot be proved one way or another, does not exist is no more valid or invalid than any other belief. The reality that you cannot comprehend how others could, and do, believe something else does not add any validity to your personal belief. The only thing that changes my belief is empirical proof and reasoned logical argument that proved something different. So far you have not provided that. | |||

"I cant believe the universe and all the miracles of life just started from a big bang that came from nowere..I do believe some higher superpower that is well beyond human intellect gave a nudge and a push for this supposed big bang to happen. You struggle to reason or understand the plausibility of exceptionally simple elements compounding to form exceptionally simple replicating compounds I don't see how a believe in a supper being means you can't accept the plausibility of some evolutionary process. Yet find it easy to see plausibility in something complex beyond comprehension has always existed then retrospectively making finitely simple life ? Anything to do with what existed before time itself started is by definition beyond any human comprehension. My comment had nothing to do with super being and evolution not being compatible ? It was a direct comment regarding his statement that could not grasp an evolutionary beginning yet could accept the most ultimate thing ever conceived could just exist It's always the creator regression id if you need greatness to design complexity you alwayp logically require a designer of your designer As for comprehension of the unknown ? Comprehension means understanding not knowledge As yet we have no knowledge this does not mean the future discoveries will be beyond our understanding It is quite plausible light or energy from beyond what we are currently aware can eventually stumble accross earth giving new insight into time beyond 14 billion ish years , it maybe traveling so far we will have to wait 278627 billion years to see it . The concept is not beyond comprehension xx yes..but it still doesn't explain who or what created this big bang that in turn created the universe and the miracle of life..? No it explains that way of thinking is a logical circular fallacy xx it negates the use of the word create as that word can only ever be a logical infinite regression causing a larger question than it does not even need to solve Creator or something else. Unless you believe that the universe was created from nothing and that everything that is is in the observable universe then ultimately something infinite has to exist at some point of iteration. What that infinite is no one knows. Anything you think it might be is either belief or speculation and nothing more. And if you think you comprehend it then, as I think Einstein said, you clearly haven't understood it. I'll suggest on the plausibility stakes , as there is no data yet to belive that Create is a needless , no dishonest mmisnomer That it's perfectly plausible that something or somethings finitely simple have indeed always existed . I'd suggest whenever we wrongly say "something out of nothing "0that is just erroneous semantics and the nothing itself will be a something If the 'nothing' is in fact 'something' then we are straight back to same iteration question.

I don't ask for anything other than empirical evidence or logical reasoned argument. " Ok , weird logic but ok ." It's exactly the same as yours. The only difference is that I know where empirical evidence and logical reasoned argument ends and belief and speculation take over. You seem to have a problem with doing that. " I would suggest , if you were to articulate , line by line your concept, it would be quite plausible to logically illustrate why the concept would either not be possible or plausible within the context of knowledge we already hold . " If it was within the context if knowledge we already hold then, as I said before, I would not belief it I would know it. That's why I stop my argument at 'there has to he something infinite'. Anything you or I believe about what the infinite is is just that, personal belief and not arguable. | |||
