I guess you finally realised that you had nothing to say about how a guy called Jesus that might have lived 2,000 years ago could have created a universe that's 13+ billion years old. Well maybe you've learned something.

Re: Priorities
Phat writes: ICANT was likely hoping that you (the peanut gallery) would at least consider that Jesus was(is) alive and DID exist. Then he's a fool. Why would we accept that Jesus is alive? Because he says so? We agreed to put aside our skepticism that he ever lived at all so that he could advance his argument that Jesus created the universe. He never even started.
Since this *is* a Faith & Belief thread, how on earth do you expect ICANT to provide objective verifiable evidence that Jesus created all that is, seen and unseen? It's ICANT's thread - "In this thread I will discuss Jesus roll in the creationn of the universe and His Physical roll on earth." So forgive us for expecting him to do that. I suspect he worked out pretty quickly that he couldn't do what he said he was going to do - so he spent pages waffling about cosmology that he doesn't understand the first thing about and now he's now run away. Epic.
Is emotion antithetical to Critical Thought? You really had to ask that? Sheesh... Edited by Tangle, .

Re: A wee bit of amateur philosophy
Phat:
Not to get too philosophical in a "magic" thread, but RC Sprouls basic philosophical argument resonates with me. Basically he argues that in order for something to exist something always had to exist. If at any time there was nothing, logic dictates that there would now be nothing.
Logic has nothing to do with it. Logic can't even explain what "nothing" is. As soon as you get beyond high school physics you're beyond sitting in an armchair and mangling words to try to understand what's going on.

Re: A wee bit of amateur philosophy
Phat:
So what makes it illogical?
Logic has nothing to do with cosmology, almost everything about it is counterintuitive. Space is expanding, everything in the universe is moving away from everything else. But the universe is everything so what is it expanding into? Logic your way out of that one. In the quantum world, things pop into existence "from nothing" (whatever that is) all the time. Almost nothing in the quantum world makes any normal logical sense. You can't think your way through this philosophically or logically.

Re: Rahvin vs Scripture
We've done Tacitus, when are you going to show that the historical Jesus created the universe?

Re: Rahvin vs Scripture
Are you ever going to tell us whether the historical Jesus created the universe? Ever?

Re: Rahvin vs Scripture
If Jesus existed, he existed 2,000 years ago, is the universe 2,000 years old?
