The thing with saying something will happen at a certain date is acutally very nonlogical. The year 2006 is something that was more or less just chosen randomly. It started with the birth fo chirst but wasn't that a randomly chosen date as well?
-------------------- ![]() ![]() This is exactly what has been going on through the entire thread, and it's not the first time either. You come to us for advice..you just spell out what you want to get, and then ask us if it is okay, and we have to explain why it isn't. That's the world upside down.. If you would just say 'hey guys, I have an X amount of money, what should I buy?' Then this would be over in 2-3 posts, not 2-3 pages. Every time someone goes against Weiman's sig I feel like they should be bludgeoned for a few minutes in the head to feel the headache I feel when I realize someone really IS that dense. |

well, sure it was random. it was some point in time in which some romans decided to start the calendar
however, considering the 666 thing is a christian construction as well, it is logical for there to be a correlation to the calendar we use today -------------------- ![]() |

Good luck on the test. Study for it. Its easy to replace god with science these days, but this is what I think. The word god, or our christian god, is a misplaced word. God is not nessesarly a being, or single entity, it was mistaken for one though. God is all things, and God controls the rate at which energy changes form in our universe. This combines God and our laws of physical systems into 1 theory, one way of explaining why things happen. On a side note, this theory supports the random behaviour of quantum particles. They could be under manipulation of God. To understand that, read my string theory bit. New string theory suggest that quarks in photons of atoms are made of trillions of strings of energy. Within each exist 6 or more diffrent dimensions. God could possibly exist in other dimensions, what we refer to as heaven and hell. This explains the heaven on earth feeling, and how god flows through all things, all or some dimensions, as a real, physical system of another universe. Think of the universe in the other dimensions other than ours, large bits of mass would act the same way, If the same laws exist elsewhere. Being the modern day ninja I am, I hope to combine my morals I've learned here on earth so far, and combine them with some christian belief's. I would also add some of my own philosophy, to create a peacefull lifestyle for ultimate mind/body control. Mind not over matter... Mind with matter, That is perfection. I think this is a strong meaning of life. That all sounds good, but many early cultures of earth did this. The anglo saxons are a good example. The real problem is, do I, or anyone else... have enough time? a famous sci-fi writter that i adore named orison scott card wrote his philosophy in a series called enders game. it talks of energy and matter and how it all comes down to these things called philotic strands. Its completly fictious but after reading (and re-reading) the series the idea started dawning on me with some factuality. none more then the bible would.. but it really makes you start to wonder. well it goes on about how philotes govern and make up everything.. all mater and energy in the unverse is governed and made up of by these particles that twist and form and twind all things together. Now, that sounds really lame at first.. but please, read the book, im horrible at explaining such things.. anyways it goes on about how some philotes are stronger then others. each person is assentially their own philote (in the book they called em auras) and what it does is pull together and twind with all the other philotes in each and every cell in the body and make the body 'one'. its a fasinating and far fetched idea and its really a great read. Now im not saying my own personal beliefes completely collaberate with orrison's and im not saying this is the only thing the books about. anyways, when it comes down to it all, no one really knows why or how most the things in the universe do what they do. Nothing is carved in stone, and what is carved we carved it there. Everything is always going to be a theory, and nothing is ever going to be completely proven. i like seeing heated debates online only when both sides are open for suggestion, what i dont like seeing is when someone throws down a statement and no matter what hes the right one and everyone else is wrong. That just doesnt do it for me. So if were gona talk about the whole 666 thing then cool, so be it... but people, dont go off and say there isnt a god, or that there is a god and science is to improbable or anything like that.. if a debate does go down you must be open to opinions.. thats really all i have to say -------------------- ![]() |

Now you had me hopefull until you said this. anyways, when it comes down to it all, no one really knows why or how most the things in the universe do what they do.

You MUST have the will to want to know, or else you might as well quit your philosophy carrer there. Dont give up man, we will all know one day, If I die trying... If your up for opinions and want to be open minded, then consider that god, or what god was misinterpeted for in the begining of man (and this wrong fantasy of him is wrong). Im not saying it is, although I think it is dosent make it true. Thats my philosoph I hope to prove. Because budist, the golden lamb people, the egyptians, roman belief, greek belief, christianity, musslim, etc etc all have their own good morals and gods. These morals and the guiding instructions of life, but the indivisual, or indivisuals that came up with them, broadcasted it in their own understanding. There is 1 god, that does exist, he sets these morals and thats that. Diffrent people around the world (early days) had no way of long range communications, so these early beliefs about gods are all comming from 1 place, and is being projected by diffrent types of humanity. The result is multiple gods and beliefs. If you understand that there is 1 god, and your morals suit you and the rest of the world. Your fine. This is what I think. -------------------- ![]() |

The result is multiple gods and beliefs. If you understand that there is 1 god, and your morals suit you and the rest of the world. Your fine. This is what I think. God is such a broad word.. if your against atheist's then so be it. But maybe they arent looking for a religion or faith that contains a mythical, unexplainable god figure. Not to say that they wouldnt believe in an idea of parelle universes governing and keeping balance in the world. Thats not what a christian, buddha, musslim god is. They just want to rationalize everything, and they have the right to. Even if someone, somewhere, got the entire world figured out. Even if 'god' came down himself. There would still be room for speculation. For example maybe the god figure is just an alien, with expoential powers, that took in our religious beliefs as a way to rationlize his presence. See what im saying? no matter what theres always going to be a different way to look at something and even sometimes the best and most logical way isnt going to be the right way The point i was trying to make is that this is all theory, what you just said.. all theory. Just because all the facts. IE majority of the religions are mono-theistic, but there was also alot of polytheistic religions as well. anyways that does not mean that mono or polytheistic is the right or wrong way. Yes having a personal conception of how the world and universe works is fine. But dont try and force your ideas upon others. or even throw out complete religions or atheists for the simple fact that it doesnt completely match with your own. If you blindlessly(and recklessly) go lookin for a faith then im sorry to say that you've already lost. If you can't keep a clear and open mind about all religions and you only focus on one belief being the only true belief.. them im sorry, its been a waste. -------------------- ![]() |

well shit... It appears then that the world has actually ended two thousand years ago on 6/6/6. I don't know how I'm gonna tell my family... I guess It's so hard to accept that we are in collective denial. BTW, its pretty easy to say "i dont THINK God exists" The fact is it is easier to "think" something than to "know" something. Eienstien believed in God...not a fellow prone to blind faith. I'm not going to attempt to explain Christianity's views on the end of the world, but if you read the book of Revelations in the Bible, you will understand why Christians aren't worried about 6/6/6, no more or less than they are worried about any other day. It doesn't take long to read, and perhaps you'll learn something... You want proof of God and Christ? This isnt the place... people only want to believe what they feel like believing. A flame war on a forum will do nothing to convince anybody of anything apart from reinforcing the notion that the world is full of idiots. Anybody who truly wants to know will ask, not try and shove an opposing view down someone's throat. "I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones." Albert Einstein P.S. -- If it werent for Mel Gibson's earlier films we might have had no idea Australia participated in WWII i thought mel gibson played a role of a ww1 ausy soldier that landed in galipoli, ottoman empire not a ausy in ww2 btw im not try to be relgious and stuff but if you dont belive in god then why would you belive in 666 and the devil -------------------- QUOTE Crysis isn't a game, it's a benchmark. |
