Quote of mine: “There exist two mountains, the Physics Sciences’ one and the Religions’ one. Between, a valley to transit.” I believe in something in the "middle" but it would be too extense to discuss here in this thread… May be other time... Edited April 9, 2020 by teroko

The other mountain is based solely on belief; you can't see it, touch it, or analyze it. And everybody takes whatever they want from it; and that seems to be the source of a lot of problems.

I disregarded some rocks of the Science's mountain and took some others of the Religion's mountain to make my way in the valley. That's why I am here now. That's why I could be a problem for you now… 😄

Begging the question - You assume in your 'quote' that science and religion are connected. As science does not address the Supernatural, then by definition I am correct. 2. Cannot be connected in reality - See #1 above. 3. Cute - I'll give you this one. That is indeed something that possibly only I 'think'.

I did it challenging things of Science and things of Religions, of course. I have developed a small site for that but I'm not allowed to publish the link here, right? But it is in my profile in the Forum. You can visit it and take a look in the site if you want. But is not possible to discuss everything about it here in this thread you know… And I guess you won't like what you will find so useless to discuss about... Edited April 9, 2020 by teroko
MigL Posted April 9, 2020 Posted April 9, 2020 Then we're agreed... This whole discussion is useless.

So you opened a discussion thread but refuse to discuss it. That's usually the point at which threads get closed.

Ok, let discuss whatever you want then. What I don't know is everything could be discussed in this thread but go ahead.

It must be difficult to live in a country where it is written on each coin and each bill "In God We Trust". Besides, what God is it?
teroko Posted April 9, 2020 Author Posted April 9, 2020 (edited) 16 minutes ago, iNow said: Perhaps you can begin with the questions and counter points you've evaded I have pointed out the possible problem of a God in troubles and that I think may be something could be done about but only by the imagination. Following this approach I think each one should follow his own intuition and imagination to try to find God's troubles and point out possible solutions. May be someone luckily find the right ones and the solution of the world and life problems would follow. The only thing I evaded is to talk about my personal work in this approach. Now, as I said, you can find it in my profile if you would be interested. Now is up to you to present your point of view if you want. I don't expect any agreement you know. What I don't know is if it would be good to discuss that in this thread... Edited April 9, 2020 by teroko

So, you're saying god only exists in the imagination. I'm forced to agree with you here. 9 minutes ago, teroko said: The only thing I evaded is to talk about my personal work in this approach. Now, as I said, you can find it in my profile if you would be interested. I'm really not. You're not exactly speaking cogently enough to entice people to go seek more, and it's against the rules of this site anyway... Rules you agreed to upon joining. You must have the discussion here, not attempt to direct traffic to alternative sites like a lousy spammer. 11 minutes ago, teroko said: Now is up to you to present your point of view if you want. The god concept is generally a crutch for people who can't accept the reality around them... in context of this thread, for those who struggle dealing with life's various struggles. I find legs tend to get stronger and more capable when walking without the aid of crutches, and that the same usually applies to human minds, as well, but YMMV

That's why I think is not good to discuss about my personal work which is related to it here. But I have been accused to not wanting to discuss then. So, I don't know what to do now…
