Burning Questions About Time, Space, Reality, Universe And What Existed Before? by Ryabcool(m): 5:08pm On Dec 08, 2017 |
Burning questions on my mind since last month that have refused to let me have rest of mind; 1. What makes Is Is? 2. What Was before Is? 3. What Will Be after Is? 4. Is Is perpetually guaranteed? 5. If Yes, what makes one so sure? 6. What is the origin of what spawned time and matter? 7. What exists outside the universe? 8. The universe is perpetually expanding, what is it expanding into? 9. Before Time and Matter, what was? I have more questions I need answering, but i'll settle for the answers to these first. If like me, you also have thoughts like these and have come up with theories that might provide answers to these, feel free to share too. Intellectual submissions only; I don't want a sermon about what is written in a man made book that is but a reflection of his attempt to explain the extraordinary. So, lets discuss! |

Take stock of those around you and you will... hear them talk in precise terms about themselves and their surroundings, which would seem to point to them having ideas on the matter. But start to analyse those ideas and you will find that they hardly reflect in any way the reality to which they appear to refer, and if you go deeper you will discover that there is not even an attempt to adjust the ideas to this reality. Quite the contrary: through these notions the individual is trying to cut off any personal vision of reality, of his own very life. For life is at the start a chaos in which one is lost. The individual suspects this, but he is frightened at finding himself face to face with reality, and tries to cover it over with a certain of fantasy, where everything is clear. It does not worry him that his "ideas" are not true, he uses them as trenches for the defense of his existence, as scarecrows to frighten away reality. -- Jose Ortega Y Gasset 1 Like 1 Share |

salvation101:Hello. Thanks for commenting. I'm sorry but you didn't answer my questions. You just said God like it's an excuse to explain what you don't know. Don't get me wrong, I believe there is God, but I do not accept that line of conversation as it is somewhat dismissive and preventive of man's ability to gain more knowledge. |

Billyonaire: I know you think you made sense even to yourself right? If These your claim about Jehovah is true about him moving on then why put a worship code in the DNA in the first place if it wasn't required? Worship points at dependency and connection and you are just throwing words around and trying to say that is now redundant even when it was deliberately and painstakingly added to our DNA. Rubbish! Also if Jehovah has moved on, where and to what has he moved on to? Amuse me with your barbershop banter. 3 Likes |

Billyonaire:Wow! I'm impressed with your submission to say the least, and my interest has exponentially grown. I would like to learn more, and I am ready. Sadly, I do not have the financial resources to pay for such knowledge. But if there is any other means of payment that could also make do, I would like to know. |

Billyonaire: Who is this 2 piece fiddlestick and what are you feeling like? You spent nearly 2 decades on what? Word juggling and convincing yourself that your nonsensical jargon is an authority and you are sovereign when nothing gum you for yansh Yeah I said it, come and beat me oh sovereign mòron. When you have no answer to questions you start acting like a big baby and throwing a temper tantrum shouting "he insulted me" everywhere. If I did not insult you in my first comment but asked "innocently ignorant" questions , yet you claim I insulted you okay now I am insulting you so your sovereign Dundee United brain can see the clear difference between that post and this one. If I try this next time you will no longer respond to me ba? Odè who do you really think you are? My boss, my life, the air I breath? Gerraarrahia men you are just an overstuffed fart machine who specializes in blowing hot air. Know when to shut up and how to speak. You speak so condescendly to everyone and you think say me I send you? Keep farting your usual nonsensical barber shop prattle and deceiving yourself the more. Your self therapy of self deception is obviously working. 3 Likes |

Billyonaire: LMAO you have respectful followership on global forums? YOU? I mean YOU? post the link of 2 of these "world forums" and let me sign up there too and join your pathetic and hallucinatory list of ass lickers and boot shiners. See locito claiming we have local brain. You are on what you call a forum you claim barbarians occupy yet you do not want to go away from the forum.

iamnlia: iamnlia, do not mention me on some of these threads, cos I can no longer tolerate insults. I have wiped out of my responses in the face of insults. I no longer have time to waste with people who do not respect opinions. I think I have outgrown the need to be tolerant to certain things. I shouldnt be on this forum in the first place. |

Billyonaire:No disrespect Sir but you're too proud to be honest, every learned fellow who try to make sense on this forum is always bashed by the ignorant ones, it's perfectly normal. I believe you're a Naturalist and Evolutionist, why not let this slide and do what you do for your followers/students and people that look up to you? You are so allergic to ridicule and criticism, and as a scientist who you claim you are, you should expect this things and know how to counter them. You might possess all the abilities you claim to have but with the little I know about spirituality, your power might be sources from the "dark side" because a true mystic knows how to tame thier anger and not let thier ego get the better of them. 2 Likes |
