Hubble Telescope

[Theland]

NASA has announced it is thirty years since the Hubble telescope was launched.
It has revealed the true wonders of the universe.
Brings to mind Psalm 19.

I watched the documentary on Hubble last night.
It blew me away. The telescope is sending back to earth REAL factual images of the universe billions of light years ago. It shows how stars are formed and still forming, all fact, scientifically proven.
The images are beyond amazing.

[Theland]

I've recorded it. Watch it tonight.

[Theland]

Jakep - do you think it all came from nothing?

//flimsy theory of evolution//

Flimsy? I'd hardly call the theory of evolution flimsy. In particular, the work of Alfred Russel Wallace in the Malaysian archipelago is beyond dispute.

Let's be honest, you see evolution as a threat.to your beliefs, therefore you seek to discredit it whenever possible. It's exactly the same as some of the most vocal atheists around, attempting to discredit whichever faith they have beef with.

I'd very much like to find out about the "proof" you found to support your faith, Theland. (And I don't mean a link to a two hour YouTube video)

[Theland]

Pixie - Naomi's post at 23:00 - totally uncalled for and insulting.Do you agree?

[Neveracrossword]

Theland, judging by many of your posts, assertions and responses, Naomi's comment seems pretty accurate. I think you are too quick to cast yourself as victim rather than the author of your own misfortune.

[iluvmargie]

Agree with jakep 100%. The programme last night left me open mouthed with wonder and amazement. It's all out there and goes on and on and on for billions and billions of miles. Where does it all start?? Totally mind blowing. There may or may not be a God, but looking at those fabulous images last night, I cannot see where God fits into it all, I really can't. I could have watched those pictures all night.

[Neveracrossword]

Iluvmargie and Jakep, it was great to read of your enjoyment and appreciation of the show - and great that you didn't attempt to tie it to anything else!

[Mozz71]

Jakep, what channel was the Hubble documentary on?

[vulcan42]

Mozz, it's on i Player, BBC2.

[Mozz71]

Thanks Vulcan. I'll have a catch up.

[naomi24]

Theland, I had to look to see what I’d written at 2300 last night.

You: //I really do understand proof, and evidence, and logic//

Me: //And you possess none of any of them. You regurgitate this same old stuff over and over but the bottom line is you don't know.//

Nothing insulting about that. You have no proof, you have no evidence, there’s no logic in attributing the unknown to the unknown, you do regurgitate the same old stuff over and over, and you don’t know. All accurate.

[iluvmargie]

Neveracross - the very best and most interesting thing I've seen on TV for a long, long time.

[Theland]

Of course I have proof.
Your problem is not the absence of evidence, (absence of evidence is not evidence of absence), but the suppression of evidence.

[pixie374]

To answer your question, the first insult was by you at 3:32. I don't see what was insulting about naomi's. But, if you have proof of God, you should be showing the whole world.

[Theland]

I totally reject that Pixie.
Anyway, I am not getting into a, ''he said she said,'' verbal ping pong.
You can have the last word on this disagreement.

Regarding proof of God, the same proofs are available to you as they are to me, and indeed everybody.

[Zacs-Master]

Zero then.

[Theland]

To you, apparently.

[Zacs-Master]

to Anyone with a grasp of logic.

[Theland]

Then use your logic.
Did the universe create itself?
