Earlier u said ur knowledge of physics is limited then how did u come to the bolded conclusion was it because of ur ignorance? if God is put where we still don't know, then God would be an ever receding pocket of scientific discoveries.

If the laws of Physics are valid before the Bang, it is obvious that their must be some unaccounted force . The unaccounted force seems not part of the sum point of energy before the B-Bang.

I just reiterated that theists will call this unaccounted force from God.
What would the atheist attribute this unaccounted force to is my question!

Also @op I want to use your 1st law of motion against you...if nothing can come into existence by is self,how did God come into existence?..just curious?? grin

1st scientifically speaking or from the physics point of view there was no time before the big bang..time started from the big bang...and because of the plank's wall physicist don't know what is or what was before the big bang,and as you know physics goes hand in hand with prove,the physicist cannot adopt the notion of I don't know there for it is God....2nd is you are correct the first law was violated by the big bang there could be a force that sets the ball rolling but physicist havent discovered that force and for the note a lot of laws in classical physics have been displaced and disproved when we dabble into quantum physics...for instance it is now known that gravity isn't just a force of attraction and many more...well I too don't know much about physic

And mind you I'm no athiest just try to be objective

I appreciate your objectivity.
Time is always measured from a point of view of a reference. The choice of reference however is for our convenience as change in time is more useful to physicists than absolute time.

So, there may not really exist an absolute time zero! By implication, time t=0 can not be at the point of the B-Bang but can be extended well before that. I just want to imagine the physics laws before the Bang.

On the second issue, you are correct. Physicists have NOT been able to account for the violations. As a Theist, I assert that the Atheist claim of being sure that other non classical or quantum do not exist may not be correct.

Theists will call the unaccounted force as Spiritual.
Atheists are still looking for answers relating to classical or quantum physics.

I appreciate your objective look

oboi! Go and learn quantum physics...classical physics is a baby!
Quantum physics violates classical physics like abc

At the point of the B-Bang, classical laws of physics was in operation. Not every thing is quantum defined.

Even then, there is no quantum physics that explains event prior to the big bang.

Finally, Both Classical and Quantum Physics are valid within their frame of reference irrespective of time.

You are also hedging a bet.

The probability of your religion being right is also about 0.0002%.

Hence; if you are wrong about Allah; odin; Brahman; Vishnu; you're also going to hell.






Sorry, your estimation of probability is way off. By my estimation (looking at things strictly from mathematical scientific point of view) only two God/gods prescribe a place of punishment like hell for ones deeds here on earth Jehovah and Allah. So, by estimation, it is like 50%...LOL grin grin

All we know is that the laws of the spirit are different from that which operates here in the physical rhelm.

So does the Greek myths

That's exactly my point. The laws of Physics seems not to have existed from eternity past. The laws of Physics seems to begin at a point we can for want of better words time t=0.

If the laws of physics have an origin, it suggests that some non physical forces initiated them. As a Theist,bI attribute it to God

The implication is baffling. Its like we don't really know anything yet about the cosmos and by extension the origin of life.

I am humbled by what yet remains to be learnt in Science!

But your second point:
Can you help that as a Theist? The rules of the spirit and that of science are different. Even though the rules are different, it doesn't invalidate their validity in their frame of reference.

Its like an aguement between Classical and Quantum physics. The solution is to acknowledge that the two positions are valid within their frame of reference.

I have been fairly scientific haven't I?

Perfectly said!
Unfortunately, it may be scientifically impossible to verify the existence of the Spirit rhelm using the known scientific laws.

Some things are just well beyond comprehension in the discussion of the ORIGIN of things.

Newton's first law of motion - sometimes referred to as the law of inertia states that:


This brings the question: At time t=0 (before the big bang), was space constituent static? Expanding universe actually show that at a time, the universe must essentially be a "point object".

If that is true, how come an "expansion of the universe" was initiated without an "external " cause?

Sorry, my understanding of Basic Physics is limited.

It takes a greater Faith being an Atheist!

Is it possible for natural events to contradict the dear leader Newton? Before rushing to conclusions, you must first evaluate even the most ridiculous possibilities.

Don't forget that the other gods do not require exclusive obeisance and they do not demand that they be followed.

Your question?
What is good enough as a good life? It is relative among men but being good is absolute before God.

Non of us is good. Being good requires being perfect in ones relationship to God, Our Neighbours, Our Duties , Strangers and our Faith in God.

No one is good enough! We depend upon His grace

Sorry Bro if it looks like that. I am listening to you, I guess we look at the same things through different portals.

I just want to show that if the Science we believe in so much has GAPS and uncertainties, should we gamble with our eternity based on it?
If I die today and discover that there is no God and no Eternity, what would i have lost?
On the other hand, if You die in your good old ripe Age and discover that God exists, hell exists and life still exists, what would you gain?

Jesus Saves

Well it then means that you're taking the safe route and believing in your God out of fear and not because you are sure.

And in your thinking, what if your God is actually not the right God, What happens when you die?

You see, you would have still lost.

Your premise and conclusions are very way out of line.
Here let me point out the fallacies in your argument first:

1.At t= 0, X= 0. This is so because BEFORE the big bang space and time does not exist.
2. If X= 0. Then, there's no "space constituents" to talk about in the first instance.

'Expanding universe actually show that at a time, the universe must essentially be a "point object".'- I agree with this postulation. Using Regressive processes can speculate on "point object".

However, you goofed again when you made this statement: '...how come an "expansion of the universe" was initiated without an "external " cause?'

The universe (Space and time) came to be AFTER the big bang. The expanding universe we observe today, is due to the exploding
(outward propulsion) of the "point object".

I hope you see what I'm seeing. If you want to explain your God's existence, explain him without trying to use a quasi-physics theory and what not.

A more plausible question should have been, what triggered the big bang?

I gave you a pure scientific view point. Religion and the spirit rhelms are not scientific. So, its never a question of statistics. Its a knowing difficult to describe.

Hm!
The key to the question postulated is time!
There is really nothing like an absolute time t=0 like in temperature where we can have T=0K. This means that time can be extended even beyond the big bang. It is actually more convenient to speak in terms of time difference rather than absolute time in physics.

Time should exist before the Big Bang.

You also say the just before the big bang, space do not exist.
This is difficult to comprehend because space means emptiness. ..If there was no space, where then is the universe expanding to.

Space had always been infinite in size.

With reference to Newtons second law, just before the B- Bang, the singularity must essentially be in equilibrium. Whatever initiated the big bang must essentially be outside the said singularity.

Note that expanding universe is measured relative to movement of objects, the assumption in physics had always been an infinite space.

Why do I use Physics, Logics and Philosophy to discuss Theism?
There exist no other platform that makes sense to the Atheist apart from these. I show them that the basic physical laws break down at some point in time. I show that there seems to be other laws different from the known laws.

Atheists want to believe that the physical laws are absolute... I show the opposite.
