What Doyou Believe And Why?

[Theland]

In answer to the big questions, the origin of the universe, the origin of life, what is your opinion, and what evidence to you have to satisfy your opinions?

[JimF]

I believe that things sound better when you're yellin'

[tiggerblue10]

I believe in evolution and scientific research into the origins of the Earth, Solar System and Universe.

[Theland]

I don't yell.

Tigger - How?

[JimF]

Whoosh!

[beso]

Much the same question as before but I note you left out Evolution this time. What I posted on that subject got too scary for you did it?

[tiggerblue10]

Archeology, paleontology, astronomy, physics etc. That kind of thing.

[Theland]

Beso - Evolution? Not so. That subject has more complicated arguments for and against.
Let's not get bogged down, and just concentrate on the two questions.
By all means, start a new thread on evolution.
I will gladly join in.

[Theland]

Tigger - So what have you learned and believe in the origin of the universe?
Not a trick question, just a desire to exchange ideas.

[Canary42]

Chaos. Hesiod's Theogony.

[nailit]

I believe that there are a sh *t load of unanswered questions about our existance.
Makes life more mysterious for me than saying that God made a lump of clay who had a rib wife and had a load of kids who all interbred.

[AuntPollyGrey]

The big bang -no evidence so pure conjecture. Could have been an experiment that went wrong in some super Deities Lab.

Evolution -backed up by solid evidence (unless you think dinosaurs are fake news)

[tiggerblue10]

As AuntPollyGrey says, there is some solid evidence such as studies into the Earths crust.

Also, I think that God was made up as a way of controlling the masses. Although I am partial to reading about Greek and Roman mythology :o)

You ran away from the Evolution question in the previous thread that addressed the same questions you posted in this thread, minus the Evolution. No need for a new thread. You have clearly already lost the debate on Evolution.

[Old_Geezer]

I believe what is rational to believe modified by my life experiences.

[Theland]

Beso - Ran away? Oh no, the games of the playground.
Enjoy your victory.

Every time I hear a new-born baby cry, or touch a leaf, or see the sky, then I know why I believe


In natural selection and evolution.

[Mozz71]

I believe that such questions are irrelevant to my life and how I live it. I onlymhave to worry about the future, the distant past has no bearing on what happens to me and mine.

[Theland]

Well this thread did not take long to self destruct did it?

[Rockrose]

I believe in evolution and that God did not create the world

[Mozz71]

Better to fizzle out than to explode into open warfare like usual Theland.
