your greatest enemy, death,


I am "MIND" my friend, and you are the one who is fooling yourself if you believe that you are going to die with the death of the created body in which you are still currently developing.

We have all sinned and we must all die once, (The first death) then we, the disembodied minds = spirits must go off into judgement, the minds who believe, that the minds must die with the created body in which they developed, will die, that's what belief is my friend. The disembodied mind that cannot believe in life after the first death, cannot continue to live, it is what it believes it to be, eternally nothing.

You are a triad being consisting of a body created from the universal elements, a soul, which is the divine animating principle that pervades the entire living universe, and a spirit=mind, that is created from the information taken in through the created senses of that body.

If that body in which your parental spirit dwells, were born without the sense of sight, hearing, smell, taste, touch, etc, then no information whatsoever could be taken into the brain, and “YOU” who are spirit [Gathered information] could never have begun to develop and the living body, in which the parental spirit dwells, would soon die, never having developed a personality or “CONTROLLING GODHEAD” to that body, which godhead should be an obedient servant to “WHO YOU ARE.”

Then of the Thee in Me who works behind The veil,
I lifted up my hands to find A lamp amid the Darkness;
and I heard, As from Without----
“The Me within Thee is blind.”----- By Omar Khayyam.

When the body in which you [the mind] are being formed, dies, [This is the first death] and your body of “skin, flesh, muscle, blood, bone, brain matter Etcetera, Etcetera,” has returned to the universal elements from which it was created, all that remains, is a shadow or rather, a facsimile of YOU, the mind or spirit, that has been imprinted into the universal life force or soul, which returns to ‘THE GREAT THOUGHT,’ [The collective consciousness of all that exists] from which it will be resurrected in this cycle, or the next cycle of universal activity.

Unless of course, the information=spirit that is “YOU” has condemned ‘WHO YOU ARE’ and ‘WHO YOU ARE’ having being condemned by ‘YOU’, is then divided from the universal life-force, which is the second death. For the spirit=information that is you, can be divided from the universal soul. Hebrews 4: 12. “For the word of God is alive and active, sharper than any two edged sword. It cuts all the way through to the division of the soul and spirit.”

The second death is the eternal punishment. The mind is divided from the eternal soul, which is given a new body in the next period of universal activity in which to develop a new spirit. Although the new spirit will not be you.

What we smell, taste, touch, see and hear, are all mental phenomena old mate. Haven’t you heard that if a tree falls in the middle of a forest there is no sound, only silent shock waves. Unless there is a created ear or some other sensory creation that can feal the silent shock waves and send them into the created brain where they are converted into sound.

The same goes for the aroma that comes from a rose or a skunk, they are only a combination of different senseless molecules, without a created sensory organ to carry each combination to the brain where, each is mentally given a different aroma, then there would be no smell, the same goes for taste, touch and sight. Put a medical pain blocker in my leg and my brain will feel no pain even if my leg were amputated at the knee, let alone being hit in the shin with a tire iron.

@The Anointed,
When your friends attend your funeral, you won't be there like in the movies watching your mourners. You will be granted the luxury of never knowing you were wrong. Like a light when the switch is turned off your life will end. Like it or not you are biological mechanical machine. The illusion of dualism was dreamed up by conmen to take advantage of others. Have you ever seen your soul? Neither has anybody else. In fact, with all sophisticated ways to find even subatomic particles no soul has ever been located. Things that are real can be located but illusions can't be. If your soul incased your body someone would have located, it. The illusion of dualism was that the mind was independent of the body, it is not. When the body dies the mind also dies. This dualism was later morphed into the soul.

Illusions are like fairy tales they have a happy ending or in this case no ending. Religions were designed for those who could not handle reality. There is really not a second world of angels and demons around you. If you jump off cliff your guardian angel will not catch you.

You can't have eternal life and die once, that is a contradiction in terms. Disembodied minds? Sounds like a 50s sifi movie. In fact, Ray Miallan stared as a disembodied brain. Evidently sifi writers were used to come with that. If the body and mind died the first death wouldn't the mind have to be resurrected? One thing about it illusions can always be modified to fit the facts.

I know that I, the invisible mind=spirit that is currently developing within this three dimensional mortal body from the information taken in through the senses of this magnificent creation, will no longer be able to communicate through its created, but by then dead senses, as I will have moved on the higher dimension that co-exists within this three dimensional world.

YOU do realise don’t you, that it has now been revealed that matter is no more than an illusion. Quantum physicists discovered that so called physical atoms are made up of vortices of energy that are constantly spinning and vibrating, each one radiating its own unique energy signature.

If you observe the composition of an atom with a microscope you would see a small, invisible tornado-like vortex, with a number of infinitely small energy vortices called quarks and photons. These are what make up the structure of the atom. As you focused in closer and closer on the structure of the atom, you would see nothing, you would observe a physical void. The atom has no physical structure, we have no physical structure, physical things really don’t have any physical structure! Atoms are made out of invisible energy, not tangible matter.

The first law of thermodynamics is the same as the first law of conservation and that is, that energy can neither be created or destroyed. If energy cannot be created, then it always was, and If it can never be destroyed, it always will be. Therefore, according to this law, energy must be eternal, having neither beginning or end.

Energy can be and is converted to that which we perceive as matter. In fact, this apparent material universe at the time of the Big Bang, was, according to the most popular theory of the creation of this universe, pure electromagnetic energy, which, In my Opinion, was spewed out of a WHITE HOLE, in the trillions upon trillions of degrees, or, according to scientific measurements (180 million trillion, trillion degrees Fahrenheit), which electromagnetic energy has been converted to that which we perceive as matter, only to be reconverted to its original form as electromagnetic energy during the phase of the Big Crunch, when all will be ripped apart atom by atom, subatomic particle by subatomic particle, and fall as fire into the Great Abyss, or Black Hole that is connected to a White Hole at the end of an Einstein Rosen bridge that connects the two.

Pioneering physicist Sir James Jeans wrote: “The stream of knowledge is heading toward a non-mechanical reality; the universe begins to look more like ‘A GREAT THOUGHT’ than like a great machine. Mind no longer appears to be an accidental intruder into the realm of matter, we ought rather hail it as the creator and governor of the realm of matter. (R. C. Henry, “The Mental Universe”; Nature 436:29, 2005)

So no, I am not a biological mechanical machine, I am the invisible living consciousness that is still, after 85 years, evolving within this ageing biological mechanical machine.

Quote:
When the body dies the mind also dies.


If you choose death, then let that be your reward.

Quote:

Matey, I have evolved from the very first life form to have appeared on this earth, and I have had to say good-bye to many different bodies on the journey to become “WHO I AM” today. I the evolving mind have never died.

I picked up a fossil and O What a buzz
Just to think-------in my hand was who I once was.

@The Anointed,
Have you ever considered being a sifi writer? You seem to add so much to the fairy tale. It worked for Ron Hubbard he started as a sifi writer and then formed his own religion where aliens lie at the center. When you create a religion there are no constraints. Tom Cruz and his ex-wife Nicole Kiddman were members. Nicole has since escaped the space aliens. Maybe you could start your own religion, like Hubbard, "developing within this three-dimensional mortal body." Don't you think you are getting off script? Think of it a new religion with Hollywood actors as followers. Seriously have you written any sifi-books? You certainly have the imagination for it.

There are always theories that become popular but fade away when new information becomes available. As soon as I can walk through walls that theory says are just illusions, I will take that theory seriously. If I were you, I would not try driving through a rock wall made up of illusionary atoms. I remember a guy who tried it, his car did not go through the illusionary wall.

When we talk about eternal life we were not talking about energy we were talking about people. No one doubts that rocks have been here for millions of years. Is that eternal life? The only eternal life that religion deals with is eternal life for people. Just because energy is eternal has absolutely no bearing on people. By way energy can change forms would we say it is eternal if it changed form?

Great thought is nothing more than that a thought that might or might not be great according to who is observing it. All of the theories just provide distraction, so you don't have to deal with real problem.

Why bother with sifi, when science itself supports everything, I have said in relation to the creation. Do you believe that the Big Bang is the most popular theory as to the creation of this universe, or do you have your own theory that is unsupported by scientific evidence? I don't really believe that you have studied either the scriptures of the scientific evidence as to the creation
of the universe, which in your ignorance you appear to condemn.

Because of the growing evidence being gathered by our top scientists, among who, you are not included, I believe that a singularity is a region of space-time in which matter is crushed so closely together that the gravitational laws explained by general relativity break down, and that in a singularity, the volume of space is zero and its density is infinite and that Scientists believe such a singularity exists at the core of a black hole, which occurs when a super-massive sun reaches the end of its life and implodes, and I also believe that General relativity demands such a singularity must exist at the beginning of an expanding universe.

Believing that this period of universal expansion began some 13.8 billion years ago, when the singularity, which was the condensed quantum of a previous universal body that had been swallowed by a massive Black Hole and torn to pieces molecule by molecule, atom by atom, subatomic particle by subatomic particle until only the quantum (Photons remained) which had been crushed into the singularity, with all the information that had been gathered in that cycle (The memory) which was then spatiality separated or torn asunder for the creation of this generational universal body, or rather the resurrection of the old body in order to continue on in the process of evolution.

This aligns with the Buddhist vision of the eternal. As said previously, “According to the ancients, we live in an eternal oscillating universe that expands outward and contracts back to its beginning in space time. A universe that exists in the two states of seemingly visible matter and invisible.”

“Universe after universe is like an interminable succession of wheels forever coming into view, forever rolling onwards, disappearing and reappearing; forever passing from being too non-being, and again from non-being to being. In short, the constant revolving of the wheel of life in one eternal cycle, according to fixed and immutable laws, is perhaps after all, the sum and substance of the philosophy of Buddhism. And this eternal wheel has so to speak, six spokes representing six forms of existence.” ---- Mon. Williams, Buddhism, pp. 229, 122. Which aligns with the biblical six days (Periods) of creation, which are referred to as six separate generations of the universe.

A series of worlds following one upon the other-- each world rising a step higher than the previous world, so that every later world brings to ripeness the seeds that were imbedded in the former, and itself then prepares the seed for the universe that will follow it. With each new generation, the previous generation is first resurrected to begin the eternal process of evolution, Creating the next generation.
You do understand how the process of evolution works don’t you young fellow?

Your science supports your misunderstand of what you use. The second law of thermodynamics applies to electrons and energy not human consciousness. You are like the little boy asked to clean a stall. When he was asked why he was working so hard? He replied that with all sh*t there must be a pony in there somewhere. That is you, you keep digging through the sh*t hoping there is a God in their somewhere. A singularity is hot so there must be God in there somewhere. The cave man in you says the sun is hot so it must be a God.

A "first death" there is no such thing as a first death in eternal life. Assembling a soul later in life, really. That would make even poor science fiction. you believe whatever you believe somehow becomes real. The religious experts would send you back to divinity school because it is obvious you were not paying attention. It is easy to jump to conclusions when your main ingredient is wishful thinking.

Hebrews 9: 27; GNB. Every person must die once, and after that be judged by God. The biblical experts know that is recorded in the bible and if they don't, then just like you, they would not be experts on the bible.
I very much doubt that you have even read the book, that in your total ignorance, you condemn. You certainly don't understand how you have evolved from a life-form that existed billions of years ago, because if you hadn't evolved from a life-form that existed billions of years ago, you could not exist today. That mind that is developing within the mortal human body, had better start working old mate. That is, if it wants to move into the higher dimension, but if you think you know all that there is to know and are happy to cease to exist, you're on the right road.

It is a very simple concept. If you died you don't have eternal life. If you have eternal life you didn't die. The bible said the earth is flat and at the center universe and was prepared to star killing people to keep word getting around. There is not a word in that bible that can be relied on it is just 2,000-year-old ignorance preserved by a religious cult.

As far as using the laws of thermodynamics to prove eternal life. When I was an engineering student I was required to take a class on thermodynamics. It has been a few years, but the professor somehow never mentioned that thermodynamic was proof of eternal life. No student fell to their knees and said praise Jesus finally prove of eternal life. Why did that not happen? Could it be that it was a lame interpretation of someone that does not understand thermodynamics?

I had to put with reading that worthless piece of crap for 18 years. I am allergic to 2000-year-old ignorance and there is not one reliable word in the entire book. It does not even make good fiction.

There is actual hard proof of evolution there is plenty proof that bible is a fraudulent document full of inaccuracies. The world is only 13,000 years old and flat. All you need to do is look outside it obvious the world is flat and that is how the bible was written.

I underwent the typical indoctrination and brainwashing. If you didn't want to go to church, you better be sick. I knew no atheists and I read no books by atheists. There were no television programs that dealt with the subject. So, what made me reject my indoctrination. Watching Christians as they conducted their lives. A family friend had eight children but spent most of her time at the local church. The bible is a poorly written book written by several authors. When you have several authors, you are going to get contradictions. There should be no contradictions in a divinely inspired book. Why would God need several authors? Why not one author who would at least have the same viewpoint?

Most preachers base their sermons on less than 10% of the bible? Why? Because certain sections of the bible they would rather you not know about. The bible chronicles the wars in the Middle East. Now imagine a sermon saying you should kill your neighbors and take their property. Based on the biblical heroes who killed their neighbors and took their land. Then they bashed the children's heads on the rocks. They could not let them live because they would avenge their parents when they became adults. The female children were allowed to live because they had other uses for them. These people were nothing but murdering and thieving savages and yet they are biblical heroes and worshiped today. They were but one step away from the cannibals in Africa.

They try to excuse mass murder to steal their property as oh it was a different time and a different God that was the God of the Old Testament. No, it was the same God it was not the new and improved God.

And as you said; “There is actual hard proof of evolution” and we know that who you are today did not exist 4 billion years ago when the oceans of the earth were teeming with all the life forms that would evolve into aquatic, amphibians, insects, reptiles, birds, mammals, etc, among which lifeforms was your ancestor who has evolved into “WHO YOU ARE” today.

Knowing that you don’t believe in creation, what did the first oceanic life forms evolve from? And when did the evolving mind of what you were four billion years ago, cease to exist? What living parts of all that you once were has been passed down your genetic line to become “WHO YOU ARE”?

And where did you read, that the world is only 13,000 years old and that it is flat? Certainly not from the bible old mate, perhaps you may have read that from the writings of Mainstream Roman Constantine Christian scholars, they also taught that the earth was the centre around which the entire universe orbited.

Afraid of the terrible persecution by the universal Roman church against any and all who would indulge in the Pagan practice of the scientific study into the workings of the universe, which results of that unholy act of heresy, challenged the authority of the church and brought into disrepute their infallible sacred teachings, such as, the fact that their flat earth that was the centre around which revolved the entire universe that was created only some ten/13 thousand years ago and was created in six literal 24 hour days etc.

It was only when he was on his death- bed that Nicolaus Copernicus dared to publish his sun-centred model of the universe and Galileo Galilei, who was constantly in conflict with the church, skilfully arguing with the church authorities for Copernicus views, finally died under house arrest as a prisoner of the Inquisition. But that was only the erroneous interpretation of the bible by those ignorant authorities, it is not what the bible says.

If you have ever built anything in your life you would understand that the foundation is not the finished building. A building is built a little bit at a time. The foundation is not the finished building. Biological machines are assembled the same way over millions of years. Successful biological machines continue the failures go extinct. It is a very simple principal that applies to buildings and people.

Would you say that a 2x4 is your house? Maybe your house was a tree. The 2x4 is tiny fraction of your house. Trees existed millions of years ago brut some of genes may have been passed down through time. Did you ever have an Erector Set when you were child? I could use the same parts and make a number of different creations.

This what I call one of the idiot's arguments that is used for the bases of religious superstition. Let's say two people that were raised isolated in a cave in a mountain come upon a Mustang. They are fascinated watching it go down the road. They start speculating as where it came from. The supernatural rushes in where wisemen fear to tread. They are sure that God created the car, but we know that 100s od different factories created the parts for the car. Now the religious believe God created the car. The explanation is far more complex a being capable of just what happened. There is a tried-and-true principal in science that say the simplest explanation must be correct. The God explanation is 100s of times more complex it is only possible in imagination land.

It has been a few years since I took thermodynamics, but I am sure there was never any indication that thermodynamics had anything to do with the occult.

The 13,000 old argument is typical it is according to the bible. My secretary provided a book by one scientist that all of carbon dating was wrong, and the dinosaurs existed alongside man. I understand every religion writes its own bible now.

The foundation of our house had to be built according to the design of the house it was to support, because only a fool would lay down a foundation without knowing the design of the building that it was created for.

Quote:

Correct! The foundation has been laid according to the design of the house that the builder has in mind. Now the builder must gather the materials needed to create that building, which includes the foundation and all the gathered materials, from which the creator builds the house in which he lives.

You’re on the right track there old mate, who knows but that one day you may come to learn the truth.

First a solid foundation must be laid in a world of seething vibrating energy, the quantum of which, is photons or wave particles. Nothing that we call physical elements existed in the day of the builder of biological machines. Now, would you like me to explain to you how the greater majority of our scientists and physicists who specialize in studying the fundamental principles of matter, energy, and the universe. Or would you rather study it yourself, or ignore their wisdom as you do with the Holy Scriptures?

When I built an 8-car garage to put my racecar and sports cars in. The foundation was a relatively simple part of the construction. You simply needed the dimension of the building and the dept of the footer.

Really tell me you don't believe the fairy tale that the earth and everything in it was created in 6 days. There is an insurmountable amount of evidence that the earth was not created in 6 days. A savage from 2,000 year ago might believe that but no one but a cult member would believe that today. I am surprised that has not been edited out the bible along with the flat earth.

Genetics is a solid science, and they have mapped the genes of the human body. Gene therapy has opened the way to cure diseases that the cure was out of reach before. DNA allows us to trace our ancestors.

You can get lost in jungle of theories and speculation, but you won't find the answer there. The answer to whether there is a god or not is not complex it is matter of common sense. What is possible and what is not. As you look at a man you can marvel at the creature and say it is impossible for such a man to just exist a god must have created him. But for a God to exist it would have to be a hundred million times more complex. Science would specify the simplest explanation. You can look behind every electron, proton and neutron in universe, but you won't find God hiding there. You are still looking for the pony. The boy was just disappointed. God lies at the center of Just World if God does not exist it becomes a much scarier place. You have to take responsibility for yourself.

Only idiots would believe that the bible was referring to 6 literal 24 hour days. A creative day is a period of time, in reference to the six periods of creation Genesis 2: 4; says, “These are the generations of the universe,” It took six separate generations before this universe, which began 13.6 billion years ago, was completed with the creation of the first modern man (Adam) some 6,000 years ago. It was then that the creator rested.

And as this, the sixth generation of the universe in which modern man is created, began with the Big Bang some 13.8 billion years ago and apparently has billions of years to go before the Big Crunch, when all matter will be swallowed into the gapping mouth of the last surviving Black Hole and reconverted into the singularity from which it originated, there is a hell of a lot more to occur before then, especially the coming nuclear war in which no flesh would survive except for the intervention of the Lord, and the following thousand years of forced peace when the Lord will rule for that seventh thousand year period from Adam.

Quote:

Or someone who lacks the ability to comprehend the Hebrew Torah that was written some 5 thousand years ago, which states that the six creative periods of the heavens and earth=universe, were six separate periods of universal activity or six separate generations of the universe.

Quote:

Well, seeing that intelligent people know that the six periods of creation are actually six separate generations of the universe as revealed to the intelligent observers in Genesis 2: 4; and that there is no mention of a flat earth in the Hebrew bible. And knowing that the New Testament, is the 2,000 year old Latin translation of the 5,000 year old Hebrew bible, it does not surprise me, that, what was not recorded in the bible was not not needed to be edited out.

Quote:

And from where did your first ancestor come? From this world of apparent matter, or from the previous world of energy, which was converted to matter? 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”? Was a stone your first ancestor? Can a stone bring forth life?

Or is your first ancestor "OUR FATHER, WHO DWELLS IN THE SPIRITUAL=ENERGY DIMENSION"?

The fate of the universe has not been determined, the Big Crunch is but one of a few possibilities. Given that the universe’s expansion is accelerating, Heat Death is the more probable scenario

@The Anointed,
I originally bought plans for a kit garage that would have cost $5,000 for a frame garage. I had to move a hillside for the building site. That required the garage to be constructed of block with one side a retaining wall filled concrete and steel. The height had to go from 8 feet walls to 13feet walls to retain the hillside. The cost went from $5,000 to $50,000 so plan changed quite a bit after the foundation was finished.

Then the earth is full of idiots because the reason people go to church on Sunday is that God created the earth and rested on the seventh. If the bible really meant 20 million years than people would only go to church once every 20 million years. The bible was very literal and very specific. How you can come up with something completely different is beyond me. Either the bible is the truth, or it is not. When does the change take place? Right after they found out the earth is not flat. People do believe that and have believed for 2,000 years. After all, would God lie to them? He is God he can do anything.

It amazing that God is so much like Trump that when he says something in the bible someone must step in an say he did not mean 6 days he meant 6 billion. It must have been a typo.

I know a lot of people like to read fiction. I don't and I can assure the Hebrew Bible is nothing, but fiction written by ignorant savages. They would have only a tiny fraction of the world's knowledge and much of what they possessed has been proven wrong now. Our field of knowledge is vast and theirs would be extremely limited. It is amazing of all the things they had wrong that you would pick out what you liked.

Over millions of years of competition some creatures survive and others fail. We use competition today to select the best among us whether it is baseball or football direct competition will select the best. In life competition selects species who survive, and it selects the improvements that work.

Here in the middle of bible belt people have been taught to take the bible literally to say otherwise is heresy. When you started with the bible is not literal there would be some of these backwater preachers who would be all for having you burnt at the stake. They just can’t tolerate a heretic.

If the bible is not literal than anybody can say whatever they want and claim that is what God really meant.
