Well the Good news is..that in (not sure of Exact yrs)...millions anyway..could be less...The sun is going to die..being a star and all..and us little earthlings will cease to exist..where will God be then?...Now theres a thought...

Mystery, isnt it. And who created the person who created the big bang....

and why? Were they just bored...?

Its enough to explode your mind, isn't it!

Just a Passing Thought.Creation was assumed to start with the "Big Bang"but Who or what? Created the Components needed to create the Big Bang to enable "Creation" **M**.:o)>.

Just look at the Two Legged Versions that are around, and you will see just how right you are.**M**.:o)>.

Doesn't really matter, though, does it.

Because all religions say something different about creation and to keep preaching one and not the other may well cause severe offence to someone, as all organised religion is capable of doing. Not forgetting that evolution takes money out of their coffers as well.

Occams razor again.....

whats more believable....a man with a white beard waving his arms around, or the theory of evolution.

I took his word for it, i are talking about 40yrs ago
why had he cause to lie.

We used to debate all sorts of things them days
from the best method of breeding top class horses
to why flies have no feathers on their wings, from
proffessors to archeologists to mere Civil servants
like me, who mostly listened in awe.
He overhearing one night volunteered the info

Mr Price was related to Darwin--Darwin was a
rellie of his.


Did he prove this or are you just taking his word for it???

like i said ime not very well educated
have a good day G

If you are going to attempt be offensive then at least quote the right person - it was Rhett Butler not Scarlett O'Hara who said, "Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn".

Dear G. i did not imply any such thing and i simpley
meant since Lancelot was the Queens Champion
in a joking manner
Mr Price was related to Darwin--Darwin was a
rellie of his.
As to mixing reality with myth or shall we say
humourus refferences, thats what ive heard
well educated people do, so i was just trying to
appear well educated.
Finally, in order to accuse you of Adultery, i
would first have to know you and even then i
wouldnt concider it any of my buisness,
In the words of scarlet Ohara--Quite frankly darling??

colin F

Colin, Guinevere is only a board name, not my real name. You seem to make a habit of mixing myths with reality.

I don't know what you are implying about a visit from Lancelot but if you are saying I'm in an adulterous relationship, then I'm offended that a total stranger would make such an implication.

Personally, I'd take the written words of Darwin's family over what some man in a pub said any day. And God-fearing Methodists don't drink.

Gwynne

If you wait long enough the understanding is bound
to evolve

colin

well if I understood it I might be able to make a comment lol

I CANT BELIEVE THAT ELDRICK

colin

well, thats a conversation stopper if ever I saw one!

MY dear Queen, hows Arthur today, at risk of a
visit from Lancelot i can only say.

One night sat in the Tontine pub in Ironbridge
a man we knew as Mr Price a god fearing
Methodist gentleman, told my brother in law
me, what i wrote. I had nor Have any reason
to disbelieve him.

colin

As I said yesterday, Chapter 3 of the Hobbit is about as meaningful as the entire bible :-)

You'd be correct R R Hon;
the bible describes god as a bundle of Dynamic
energy.
As a Greek philosopher once asked ?
is god a all encompassing and we are just figures in his immagination carrying out his thoughts---
a load of rubbish of course, this same philosopher
put foreward the evolution theory--another load
of rubbish.

Darwin's family always denied the claim by a "Lady Hope" that he sent for a priest.

from wikipedia -

Elizabeth Reid, Lady Hope (née Cotton; December 9, 1842–8 March 1922) was a British evangelist who is generally believed to be the Lady Hope who claimed in 1915 that she had visited the British naturalist Charles Darwin shortly before his death in 1882. Hope claimed that Darwin had recanted his theory of evolution on his deathbed and accepted Jesus Christ as his saviour.

Charles Darwin's family denied the story, and insisted that Lady Hope "was not present during his last illness, or any illness." The Lady Hope Story is generally recognised, even by many Creationists, to be false — or at least unverifiable — and if true, probably exaggerated. The story remains a popular urban legend, even though it stands in sharp contrast to Darwin's published and known views about Christianity.
