Before the start point, we can't put the name "universe" over any entity.
It won't "mean" anything.
"Universe" is just a reference to a "meaning" after all.
Quote:Also, you're not thinking about either anthropological (strong or weak) principle coming into play.
"anthropological" gives me "the study of human beings' similarity to and divergence from other animals." when written in google.
If I get your meaning right.
Humans started existing as assets of this current Big Bang.
Or more precisely: assets of this universe.
So before the start, their ideas, consciousness and thoughts are nothing but unknowns.
Quote:Scientific American even ran an article on your pre-start thing in the last couple years. Head to the library !!

Quote:Word salad is about as polite as I can be about the OP. Like you Atlas, but this is merely what I have seen from countless others from just about every religion you can think of in 16 years of online debate. When you have no positive proof with independent peer review, you resort to pretending philosophy can replace a neutral science lab.
No, science labs would be in my agenda to build, after all I think they prove what I believe, even more.
Quote:How about anyone of any religion in the world consider that religion and god claims are merely the products of human's imaginations reflecting their own narcissism, fears, desires and insecurities based mostly on what the parents hand down to the youth of the world?
They provide an answer for unanswered question; one strong answer too.
All humans do bad, religious people are not different.
They do bad because they are humans; not because of religion.
Quote:Science explains nature and the universe, not religion.
I didn't shoot down the human brain, neither did I shoot down religion.
That's what you see here; Brian.

Kudos for the opinion that comes in the center.
All are faith. All are beliefs.
The biggest disaster (even within Muslims themselves) is the double standards.

The special case is what I would go for, in terms of the existence.
That's why we can't define God; only he can define himself.

The point before the Big Bang is itself meaningless, right.
The chance of the existence of a being outside the context of our own domain, deserves to be considered.

Please, they are pawns in the big economical game that businessmen love to play since WW2.
