Yes Cheechako, it seems that God chooses to make himself and a whole other realm of activity vaguely perceivable to us.

Even the earliest stages of creation are seemingly stretched-out over an indefinite period of time.

We seem to be obliged to look at mind-numbingly gradual processes mixed-in with ones that are seemingly instantaneous.

*******************************************************

Here's an example...

Often I see signs of sedimentary rock all over the place.

They are often in elevations without any recent memory of water sluicing and depositing this stone.

They are much easier to explain than the Granite rocks that are filled with all kinds of streaks and well-ribboned crystal formations.

I've got an elder brother who's a geologist and even he's at a loss to explain them.

We know what the text-books say on the subject, but they're woefully incomprehensive.

I majored in metallurgy in my senior years of schooling and my only conclusion is they came into existence in the blinking of an eye.

Yes, much is left to faith. smokin

For those who'd bother to look-up a few verses from the Quran.

(Surah 32: 10-14)

But if we all agree He is ONE, isn't it acceptable to have Many routes to Him?


Firstly, we must define The One.

If Some erroneously assume 'The One' is a whole-bunch of other Entities and Idols, then we can't expect one truly enlightened path, can we?


Many formal worships claim they are Monotheistic, but in reality they are Polytheistic, in so much as they assume other Entities or Beings are one-in-the-same as the One Unseen True God.

Here-in is the problem... For when the creation is worshiped instead of the Creator, there will always be conflict.

Really, it is the breaking of the very first of the Ten Commandments... Namely, "'Thou shalt not have any 'other' gods before Me,'" says Jehovah.

slaphead To quote the prayer and long-bomb the foot-ball...

"Hail Mary, full of grace."

"The Lord is with thee."

"Blessed art thou amongst women."

"Blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus."

"Holy Mary Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and in the hour of our death."

"Amen"

Is this what Kic1 is referring to ?

the bible says we have a heavenly Mother & it is prophesied through the scriptures that she will come down from heaven from God in the flesh in this age today






Where does it say that? Would you post the scripture please.

I can't go through life without knowing if he truly exists or not. I don't care about getting on his good side and I'm willing to upset him if it means he'll show me a sign. Because: "I'd rather have a sure nothing than an uncertain something!"

So I've been trying to come up with ways that'll most certainly provoke him, if he exists that is. Mind you I don't want to get in trouble with the authorities. Any ideas?



Sounds too simple... "Lets make a formula for summoning God !"

Maybe, You should look at certain events that have formerly gone by and have left irreproachable evidence.

If You can see something that has no other logical cause for it's existence apart from God... You must concede ! spock

Genesis is originally in Hebrew.






That is what I understand also. It was later translated into Greek. The Greek is what I wonder about. I haven't figured out exactly what "synthetic language" means. Have you done any study on that subject?



Greek as a 'synthetic language' has something to do with inflections rather than word order to express grammatical structure.

(At Least That's What My Electronic Dictionary Says)

Hebrew can still be translated straight-over into any language One wants though.
