Nope. We've been through this before. Your need for neat boxes with red bows is boring.
Quote:The big bang theory goes on the premise that time and space began at that moment.
Nope. The Big Bang rests on no such proposition. As I said above, see Penrose's "Cycles of Time".
At a singularity, time as we know it, is warped and slows down, so you can say nothing about this. When you get all big and mommy lets you out to go to school, you'll learn about science and that the Big Bang is the expansionary epoch, and not the "beginning" of anything.
As you get closer to a singularity, the flow of time slows down, compared to flow of time far from it. (According to Einstein's theory, any massive body, including the Earth, produces this effect. ... Inside the singularity, the flow of time itself draws falling objects into the center.
Quote:Thats false. Probabilities are calculated in various fields using one data point
Really ?
"Mathematics : the extent to which an event is likely to occur, measured by the ratio of the favorable cases to the whole number of cases possible.
"the area under the curve represents probability"
Great. 5 examples should suffice.
Quote:An atheist does the same. Just look at the array of hoaxes put forward by science to try discredit religion. It's desperation.
Funny. I never heard of any. How about 5 examples of those too.
Quote:College professors more concerned about holding lectures on religion than talking about science. Dawkins is a classic. For a theoretical biologist he talk way too much crap. Harping on about religion instead of doing science.
Oh yes Church Lady. You go give him a good spanking, and tell him he is to speak about only what you tell him to speak about.
Edit:
I do have a question for you though.
What are the practical daily real life differences between Chinese Tao mysticism, Christian European contemplative mysticism, and agnostic atheism ?
Seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy -- myself.
