Our Home - The Speck Of Dust

[naomi24]

NASA has just released images of a black hole located in a distant galaxy.

It measures 40 billion km across - three million times the size of the Earth - and has been described by scientists as "a monster". The black hole is 500 MILLION TRILLION km away.

Logically, do those enormous distances not encourage the creationist fraternity to wonder if they’re mistaken? Do they not ask why, from this whole unimaginably vast universe, a creator God would have selected this minute speck of dust located somewhere near the outer reaches of a fairly minor galaxy – just one of an estimated 2000 billion galaxies each containing billions of stars – as home to his beloved(?) creation – man?

Personally, I cannot believe we’re that special. What say you?

No Naomi - There is far far more to the bible you criticise than you have ever realised so far.
It's quite obvious it goes over your head, and you are stuck in your bias.

[naomi24]

How would you know, Theland? You haven't read it.

[Theland]

Ouch! Another dart!
True there are parts I have never read, and parts I have read over and over and over, always getting something new from the exercise, and I listen to lots of lectures these past 37 years. Still a way to go, so plenty more darts to throw.

Naomi - A gift. Take a chill pill with me and relax.

[naomi24]

Good grief! He's finally flipped!

[Theland]

Naomi - I sometimes find it difficult to accept you are an atheist. If only you would step out from your bias and really examine the evidence. .

I live in prayerful hope for you.

I'm delighted that you're out of hospital and fighting fit again, Theland.

[naomi24]

Theland, //Naomi - I sometimes find it difficult to accept you are an atheist.//

In that case you must try harder.

THELAND, the link you gave says pi is 3.1416 x 10^17 but that number is a hundred billion* times greater than pi.
If the writer had used a combination of letters totalling 355 and another totalling 133 and divided one by the other, that gives 3.1415929204 (accurate to 6th decimal place)
That would be much simpler and more accurate.

There is another theory mind, it's just coincidence!!!

*using British numbers

[Theland]

You could build a temple with that accuracy of pi. And it was written before Man started to discover geometry.

What about e in John 1:1?

[Theland]

Evolution - about 8 minutes in. As you believe in https://youtu.be/FyxUwaq00Rc

[Theland]

Yes interesting. But the old truth holds sway. The highest authority in an atheist paradigm is the man at the top. Human fallibility and ego.

[naomi24]

Theland, rather than continue to attempt to prove those who disagree with you wrong, why don’t you simply tell us why you’re right and substantiate that with verifiable evidence?

[Theland]

Yes Naomi I will.
I hope you and I will be allies in our search for truth.
As close as the night we danced in the Vatican Sports And Social Club, the night the pope called the bingo numbers, and Mibs and Ummm dominated the karaoke.
Our little secret. A treasured memory. I still have the Virgin Mary bottle opener you gave me that you won in the raffle.
May we go forward in friendship and enlightenment. X

[naomi24]

Theland, Stick to the subject.

[Theland]

Genesis Chapter five. The ten names. The meaning behind the names. Check it out.

[naomi24]

I'm going on no wild goose chases. Tell me what you're talking about.

[nailit]

Its a Chuck Missler thing naomi. Hes a bonkers Christian minister.
If you bother to check the ''Genesis 5'' thing out, then have a read of this after

[naomi24]

Oh dear. Yes, I recognise it now. Thanks Nailit.
