What is truth?

Between god and humans, who do you think will end this world as we know it?

Though I'm I still find it hard to believe that whole evolution thingamajigger...

Maybe I'll venture into the evolution thread some day. Just maybe... :wink:

queen annie... that's a nice idea, however have you ever thought of the fact that the things we are doing are effecting nature itself?

Therefore I say ultimately, we will be the ones responsible for ending the world as we know it.

Hepz, you say that "Truth is what it is...." I prefer to say that Reality is what it is. . .

Actually, I have done extensive research into some of the things going on right now--namely the global warming issue. What I have discovered is that, as much as we'd like to think we have enough influence on nature to change it's course--all we can do is contribute. And still that contribution will never be the determining factor.

I don't think we will be able to take the credit for the housecleaning in progress...

We may be the reason the world as we know it is ending, but we will not be the force ending it.

In the Quran the surahs, The Believer 67th verse and The Believers 14th verse talk about the stages of the creation of the human. We can collect the stages until the birth stage under 6 head lines: 1- dust, 2- drop (sperm), 3- the hanging (the hanging on the womb wall), 4- a bite size meat, 5- the bones, 6- flesh. (we investigated how miraculously The Quran tells the creation of human between the 48th and 54th chapters)These words that describe the stages are used as follows ; 1- dust (turab) 17 times 2- drop (nutfe) 12 times 3- the hanging (alaq) 6 times 4- a bite size meat (mudgha) 3 times 5- the bones (izame) 15 times 6- flesh (lahm) 12 times. These stages until the birth of human are used 65 times in total. And the word "human" is also used 65 times in the Quran What do you think? Can this occur by chance? The two verses which talk about the stages of creation are as follows:

He is the One who created you from dust, and subsequently from a drop, then a hanging, then He brings you forth as a child…
40. The Believer, 67

Then We developed the drop into a hanging, then develop the hanging into a bite size meat, then created the bite size meat into bones, then covered the bones with flesh. Then formed him into a new creation. Most blessed is God, the best creator.
23. The Believers, 14

The Word The number of times it is used in the Quran
Dust 17
Drop 12
Hanging 6
Bite size meat 3
Bones 15
Flesh 12
Total = 65
Human 65
