@timur,
Then you admit that the bad does not happen in that same amount of time.
The person who knows he is right does not even entertain When will it happen.
You show your hand and lack of confidence

@eisen3,
A law that is not absolute but is still a law would be subject to another law then. But that doesn't change anything. It is still lawlike. The tax code has many stipulations of law but you do have to pay $X dollars when the lawlikeness reaches its exhaustion.

@AugustineBrother,
Why are you always assuming and projecting your own insecurities?

You don't even know what confidence is, let alone being honest.

@timur,
I could embarrass you by making you give your little speech to the world on what confidence and honesty is. But I won't, some here know already, can you believe that? and you didn't get to lecture. Wow.

@tsarstepan,
There is no God. There is no proof of him. I believe in science and math. For example, gravity. You can see gravity in effect when you drop something, and it can be expressed by this mathematical equation F=G(m1 • m2/r²). Give me mathematical proof of God and show me proof of him in effect, and I'll believe.

The real question is, what has belief got to do with it? God is an experience
and outside the field of time and thought. Arguing belief and non-belief is sort of a way of avoiding the issue. It kind of puts theists and atheists in the same boat. True religion seems to be only expressible through poetry and music. Maybe, there are other ways. Tell me. Zen koans?

Or as 14th century mystic, Meister Eckhart said, "We are all meant to be mothers of God...for God is always needing to be born."

He was due to be tried for heresy for that, but died first.

@m3tacom,
It's impossible to show proof of any god. Religion is based on faith only. That's the reason there are so many religions in this world. Man has to believe there is a creator or some omnipotent something that created all "this." Some of us believe the cause is nature (natural outcome of our environment), and trust science over any book written 2,000 years ago that has many errors, omissions and contradictions. Homo sapiens evolved from primates, and this planet is not 7,000 years old as the bible claims. Scientists tell us this planet is 4.6 billion years old. Some believe in both, but I view that as a contradiction.

I always confused the words belief and faith, and always thought they interchangeable, but this quote cleared things up for me:

"If we cling to belief in God, we cannot likewise have faith, since faith is not clinging but letting go."
Alan W. Watts, "The Wisdom of Insecurity: A Message for an Age of Anxiety"

Though proof of God cannot be given to any, there can be certainty of God. There is logic to it. Belief in God can have assurance that is not the same as guessing. Faith in God is assurance enough to trust God that one acts on it. If we can trust God, we can listen and watch for God showing us things, that we do then accordingly.

Homo sapiens evolved from primates, but that didn’t happen until the great Reptilian race which ruled the earth for some 140 million years was made extinct some 66 million years ago by the cosmic collision of a huge asteroid, this allowed the amphibian mammals, which were a Favorite food source for the dinosaurs, to move away from their aquatic environments and take over as the most high evolving land animal and mankind developed within the bodies of our animal ancestors.

Just as mankind, “Lord of all physical creatures” had developed within the bodies of our animal ancestors, the “Son of Man’ who is currently developing within the body of man, will be born with the death of Mankind, unless you believe that mankind closes the book of evolution.

The fact that this generation of the universe began its expansion and formation from a swirling pool of super hot electromagnetic energy into the physical world we see today some 13.6 billion years ago and that our Solar System was created 9 billion years after that, reveals that 4.6 billion years ago this universe was still in the process of being created and as the Hebrews believe that it was not until the birth of modern man (Adam) some 6,000 years ago that this universe was completed. So, according to the Hebrew belief, this universe, which was completed with the creation of Adam is not 7,000 years old, it is only 6,000.

Now then, do you believe that all life in this universe has evolved from a previous life form? Or do you believe that a universe of mindless matter has produced beings with intrinsic ends, [in Kantian terminology, an end-in-itself] --------- self- replication capabilities, and “coded chemistry”?
