My quest

[mfa5]

Hi. My quest is to find like-minded individuals who might be interested in discussing a theory that I am developing.

 

Fundamental Juedo-Christian beliefs in the form of creationism are widely held in the United States, where the belief is that humans are the result of a special creation by god in the past 10,000 years. A more recent description is that of “intelligent-design theorists”

 

This is where we have the ongoing issue with “science” in that scientists have taken it upon themselves, perhaps in a justifiable way, to insist that the “scientific method”, the formulation and testing of hypotheses is the only “acceptable” alterative to religion.

 

Scientists argue that that the problem with creation science is that the fundamentalists’ basic theory is not really open to falsification per se. Creationalists may formulate hypotheses and gather data but since the theory is truly an article of faith, there is no possibility of changing or discarding it, regardless of their results.

 

Within science however there are equally as weak arguments. The assumption for example that in the case of the absence of evidence presently, that evidence is likely to emerge in the future automatically tends to follow any issue which is yet un established.

 

It seems impossible to find a medium that can be accepted to exist between religion and science.

 

The existence of our universe and ourselves within it lies outside the ability of our science to understand. Consideration of issues leading to its existence must almost inevitably lay outside matters of our understanding. Our consideration thereof must inevitably be undertaken within the parameters of our ability to understand, using terminology such as ‘entity” which whilst possibly wholly in appropriate is the only terminology that we know.

 

Following on from our interpretation of the Big Bang and the associated theories it is possible to hypothesise that some event occurred immediately prior (in the context of time as we understand it) to the Big Bang.

 

Following on further it is possible to hypothesise that there was some form of “divine” (not in the religious context) entity driving events and planning and occasioning the creation of the universe and its subsequent development. It follows that any such entity could hold the ability to manipulate and adjust developments in its creation.

 

My curiosity is to consider whether any, of the many, unexplained factors in life which await some future archaeological or similar discovery can be demonstrated as lying outside the accepted Darwin concepts of progression.

Uh oh, Here we go again, welcome mfa5, may I suggest looking for threads similar to what you propose so we don't repeat what has already been said?

[mfa5]

noted...by the same token might i suggest that the introduction be rewritten so that introductory postings are appropriate and comments like yours will not be needed...not a good start

[Moontanman]

I'll take that under advisement, meanwhile welcome to the forum, I'm sure you'll find what you are looking for here.

Ah, i always thought that the crazy-thinking people come from Europe, and here is another proof... Galileo, Einstein, Fermat, Markov, Von Neumann, Newton, many, many other crazy-thinking people, all of European nature...

 

Juust busting your chops, welcome to scienceforums, the only place known to man where theologists speak sarcastically about theology, linguists about languages, historians about history, geeks about computers, scientists about science, and they somehow dont manage to get into giant flaming wars...
