Most certainly, or at least beyond our current understanding anyway.
I love to think about existence and question what we know... and your discussion has made me ponder some more.

mullet35, Good points on belief......and your thoughts on the OP videos sir?

OT

yes, so true, the vid on LAMININ freaked me out!


Thank you for helping here...

OT

OK, did OT do that?

OT

What do you think of....1 Peter 3:15......."But make sure in your hearts that Christ is Lord. Always be ready to give an answer to anyone who asks you about the hope you have. Be ready to give the reason for it. But do it gently and with respect."

OT curious?

Yes! That's the way to find wisdom...any thoughts on 'Haste the Day' vid....stitches... link here again... www.youtube.com... listen at 2:59 ok?

whaaa, hey thanks for contributing here....did you get a change to see the ANON post just before yours?

OT

I only had enough time to watch the first 2 videos (about the universe). Even though I always knew what he was pointing out, it was nicely presented.

There wasn't anything there that goes against my beliefs. We are like a speck of dust, but as William Blake wrote, "To see the world in a grain of sand...". I find it easier to feel God looking inwards, but the infinity of space also helps.

I will watch the other videos tomorrow.

...inwards...


YES!!!!


That's the point of the third video in the OP....


Please review...


And I'll see you response tomorrow, ok

OT thanks you for the transparency...

Can't wait to hear your reaction....

Beautiful videos!
I will watch the rest of Tony Compolo tomorrow!
My cable is off and I haven't watched TV in a week.
That is so refreshing!
Thank you OT.

Maj, good point!!!!!

Your post about something MORE......

Thoughts on the 'its friday but sundays coming' audio? It's the last in the OP, ok?

Talk to you tomorrow, if you have time?

OT

Clearskies,


Hi...!!!!!

These are difficult times, especially as of late in the US....at least ECONOMICALLY....realizing we have it better than most if not all in the world....


I do pray for all in the 3rd world...for sustinence, food and wisdom to endure....my LORD Jesus spoke of poverty many many times more He did than heaven and hell....my Jesus IS THE friend of sinners, of whom I AM cheif...

Tony Campolo, IS THE most relevant speaker/pastor today....OT wishes more skeptics would research him and read his new book RED LETTER CHRISTIANS, huh?

OT

Yes, Louie is a smart man...combining SCIENCE and the BIBLE...I wonder if skeptics will do the due diligence and research?

OT hopeful

It is hard to conceive why so many do not believe in a creator architect, nothing did not create something no matter how you look at it. Matter even in it's finite state had to be created from something and that something is a creator. How ever it is you may interpret God. Even thought, reason and common sense will let you know that you can look at nothing (space) and it will never create substance.Believe what you may you have that right, I would rather die believing in a literal God, Than to die and believe nothing...........................

rikk7111, Sorry I missed you online earlier....what are your thoughts on the OP's videos? OT interested when you have time...

Good night!

OT

Hey, what'd do think of the Campolo vid?

Also the longer audio at the end is my favorite...

OT

g, get a chance to see the others?

OT
