Well the 1050 posts trial failed quite miserable at 36. So here is another challenge for us with some brain candy to help us get there…
1. If Man created God! Who created Man?
2. Ever thought that perhaps we are living in the past but we just don’t know it? (e.g the sighted twin told his blind brother about the passing of a plane and upon hearing the plane pass, the blind twin asked his sighted brother how he could tell the future).
3. Why do we come to this Forum?
4. Can Absolute nothingness exist without absolute somethingness?
5. Can you create good without harm???
6. Why do some posts succeed and others fail?
7. What is the purpose of life and are we alone???
8. The universe is continually expanding but expanding within what?
9. Can we hit 1205 Posts???
10. Life is not what it seems, Philosophers are really historians and Science is limited to earths resources. So what does all this tell us???
11. If we follow Einstein’s thinking that energy can neither be created nor destroyed and can only be converted, could God have been created through energy conversion?
12. Name one thing that has no opposite?
13. The universe is not balanced!!!
Wow, let me try.
1. God is man & man is God.
2. We live in the Now, which is both separate and the same as physical reality. We are all limited in life to the senses of the form we are in.
3. Because we like to talk, and even when others piss us off, we are still social creatures who seek group validation.
4. According to ancient nature philosophers of Greece: Nothing does not exist, it cannot even be comprehended, this is not to be confused with no thing which is an absence of an object within a container. (example - you can have an empty jar, it doesn't need contents to still be a jar)
5. What do you consider harm? I have to eat, but I don't consider it harmful, with an ecological perspective, to eat, though I understand that something had to die to feed me (even plants are alive).
6. Why do your deep thoughts keep flowing over the forum? Why is this place so important in the scheme of things?
7. To learn. What do you mean by alone?
8. The container, we covered this. Generally when they say universe, they mean the matter/energy not the container that holds these objects.
9. Probably, or are you talking specifically about this topic.
10. Philosophers were the first scientists. Aristotle, the nature philosopher, who trusts in both reasoning and data accrual by the senses, gave us the scientific method, and is considered the father of modern thought.
11. God is, or the Gods are.
12. The photon. It is not paired, like the electron and positron.
13. What?
