What good does religion offer the world today?

@cicerone imposter,
The Empire State Building took more than seven million work-hours to build. Smile

"All men are created equal" written by slave owners.

"Love conquereth all" written by Greeks and Jews who practiced an abysmal idea of love.

When will equality and love become real instead of an ideal?

Just my guess, but about 1000 years after the return of the son of God.

@Leadfoot,
You have little faith in the humanity you claim God created.

I heard a scientist say today that God is a musician.

They say that God plays the string theory.

These quantum strings designed life through geometry, and the physics of celestial gaseous and solid bodies.

But how could such a musician exist?

And our society makes "stars" out of famous musicians.

But "the" star is the maestro that orchestrated our universe into existence.

Thus we have a silence before a big bang. A noise to fill the empty void of space.

A vibrating body sending out acoustic energy.

Like a wave or a wind that softens the surface of stone over vast amounts of time the universe settled into the current state we now occupy. We are the song of God.

If life was somehow created by the interaction of the moon to the earth then we need to recalculate the possibility of life.

Was the moon some random piece of debris that came from the outer parts of our solar system or was the moon a product of our sun and thus a natural occurrence in earth type solar systems?

We can calculate there are billions of earth types of planets.

But once we factor in that the moon may be a necessary key element in the entire life equation then the chance of a life supporting earth and moon becomes even less frequent.

Perhaps even in the millions or thousands.

So if there are only a few thousand chances of life it might also seem possible that many of those life experiments have gone awry in many cases.

Perhaps the meteor that caused the extinction of the dinosaurs never came or the wheel was discovered many thousands of years too late. etc...

These other worlds are our "parallel dimensions".

The same beings similar to ourselves crawled up out of the primordial slime on their own respective planets and the now speculate about our existence.

So we all sing out in a harmony and there are perhaps places that are radically different from our own existence as life leapfrogs from universe to songverse.

@TheCobbler,
I do this!!! You have to think a little bit harder than having the mentality that you would just fix everything though. If I was a god, I would go blowing **** up, making creatures, making a universe, and generally setting everything up exactly how I wanted all the time. Than that would get boring. Than I would realize that the most interesting thing for me to do is watch things I DON'T control. That would be for starters.

Long ago, I watched a program about how life arose. It used a lot of computer animation showing the first cell and how it slowly mutated into different shapes then split into a multicellular creature. All along the narrator with the most authoritative and sincere voice you ever heard is telling you how this all happened over billions of years. It went through many small changes with eyes developing, stubby fins emerging, then limbs that slowly sprouted fingers and toes. and right before your eyes you see for yourself how man came from that tiny formless one celled creature. I was totally convinced.

By sheer chance, soon after I saw a program on computer animation and techniques for manipulating images. One was called 'morphing'. They demonstrated it by starting with a white circle on a black background. It reminded me of the first cell animation on that evolution show I saw. The circle started changing shape just like before but instead of a more complex cell, it turned into a Coke bottle, a car, and eventually a running man.

I started to wonder if I'd been had by that first TV program.

@Leadfoot,
Hate to say this, but "you've been had." And that's a good thing, because that's the best contemporary science can provide.

@Leadfoot,
DNA is merely a set of numbers perfectly capable of morphing into an array of shapes over time. The first program you watched got it right.

Consider, it is the earth's elements that we have morphed into coke bottles much like the earth has morphed us into carbon based life forms.

There is no mystery needed, just time and the naturally occurring building blocks of our universe.

No mystery from either perspective.
Just building blocks and some intelligence to build.

Is anything 'naturally occurring'?

@Leadfoot,
Whose to say there is not intelligence in the earth?

The earth is our mother and cradle. The earth giveth and the earth can taketh away.
