Quote:It's not an infinite regress, it's an eternal state. Non-relative time (no space of movement for orbit of anything). The prexisting substance is the necessary being.No terminus, no ability of reason to generate a conclusion. For a necessarry being to exist, it must exist within something..snce we're trying to explain the origin of that something..a necessary being is of no use. If you do wish to refer to the concept, then perhaps the singularity itself was a necessary being..and as such there's no sense in talking about it's contigencies. See...inconsistent applications of reason. Once you propose that there is something that has no contigency, the best candidates for that something are..firstly, things that we know to exist.
Quote:Really? I thought the general scientific consensus was that all the forces, fields, and substance that we enjoy as individual operations/forms were inherent in the unified state (singularity) prior to inflation. They did not appear willy nilly.I'm not sure what you think, in my comments, this refers to.
Quote:Well then you are going to have to think outside the box...in fact you'll probably have to dance on a tesseract.You can't..at least not rationally. Such are the limits of reason. You can use whatever else it is you have to come up with whatever you've made...but I'd probably just pass on that, personally.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
