One must think things through.

[unapologetic]

I’ll respond when somebody has something intelligent to say.

You start.
Say something intelligent. instead of the word salad of your OP.
This question/statement makes no sense:

No beginning? So if time goes backwards infinitely how did we arrive at today?

No one here said time goes backward. That is not an atheist position. Take it to a science thread. Posting it in a religion thread shows you haven't thought it through either.

The leading Multiverse hypothesis is laughable. It states that the bulk (the eternally inflating false-vacuum regions) expands much faster than the individual bubble universes inside it. OK…

OK, so take it to a science thread or find a multiverse forum. You should be talking to scientists or science fans. Not theists or atheists.

 

[pood]

Too much to think about? Yeah a lot of people don’t think.

Mirror?

 

[pood]

Is there some point to this standard-issue nonsense?

 

[pood]

For atheists that think all existence has always been here and always will be: Time can’t go backwards infinitely. If it did, there would be no today.

For atheist that think all existence is cyclical: What will be the magic that takes place to kickstart a dynamic existence after the all-encompassing heat death, which is the most widely accepted theory from top scientists, takes hold and existence becomes static?

Maybe you work around the heat death theory by believing in a Multiverse. But now the question remains: Are other universes exempt from heat death?

Or maybe you’re an atheist who thinks the power of infinite space magically keeps giving birth to dynamic universes, which is unlikely. Or maybe you think all existence will remain static for eternity after heat death is complete, which goes back to my first question and makes no sense at all.

I’m guessing you’re an atheist who simply doesn’t know. The reason why you don’t know is you listen to top scientists who don’t know. Yes, scientifically speaking, they are right to say they don’t know, but there’s nothing wrong with knowing outside of science.

Time needs a beginning and an end and be cyclical and each cycle needs to repeat the same exact time. An example would be a time period that repeats from 1980 to 2040 over and over again. For if it’s not an identically repeating time cycle, it is one timeline and as I explained before, that is not something that is possible.

So what could cause this to happen? Something living or nonliving? Definitely not nonliving. Life is self sustaining and in that respect similar to time and can “reproduce” another timeline. Life is most complex and is the best suited catalyst to reset an infinitely spatial universe.

Anyway, if you’re wondering whose life resets time, it’s me. You can learn more in the link in the about section on my profile.

Thank you for your word salad. Is there some yummy dressing with it?

I mean it's not exactly word salad to me? Not in the way Sayed was, at any rate.

Its really standard issue "the universe had to have a beginning and that beginning was god" claptrap at the first paragraph...

In the second paragraph he attempts to bolster this idea by referencing heat deaths to attempt to make an assertion on a faulty premise: that all cycles are perfect repetitions; the disproof of this faulty premise is Aperiodic systems, infinite systems which have an infinite number of repetition of any given stanza but which bear no rotational, or positional symmetry. There are even more interesting systems which have no perfect repetitions of some finite stanzas, which also invalidate this, but they are less "cyclical" and more open ended in nature... Which this universe could also be. All in all, second paragraph is disproved in its conclusions.

In the next paragraphs, he makes the bald assertion that there are ways to know without tearing one's knowledge (without science).

Then he goes back to the disproved assertion of time needing to be a perfect wave rather than an aperiodic one...

Then there's a bald assertion that all such causes have to be living...

And then the statement that it's him.

There's the dressing.

Maybe the fact that it all boils down to the guy's own solipsism makes it "salad", but like... It makes more sense than "Ferrier blond pickle for of night blanched."

Enough, at least, that you can express how and where it doesn't make sense.

Well, shoot. My beef is that there's no way to donate to his ministry. At least, google doesn't have one. I have postponed my hip replacement because I need the cash to support these scripture-based teachings. I would, at a minimum, like to buy a gold leaf Bible, a prayer rug, some anointing oil, and 20 buckets of survival food in the 20 gallon size (5 beefaroni, 5 cheesy rice, 5 chocolate pudding, and 5 mystery meal.) I've got the money ready to go. What is the 800 number?

 

[pood]

There are cyclic universe models like conformal cyclic cosmology, but I fail to see what any of this has to do with atheism???

No, thanks.

B'cuz otherwise you might make a bad mistake, and sign up for Jesus or Muhammad or even The Buddha!
Let this GI character be an example of what might happen to you.

Nice of you to take him so seriously.

OK, so take me back to before I was atheist, And maybe that will convince me. (if you can out-argue my baptist mother)

Based on everything we know, existence really isn't possible. We exist, therefore there is stuff we don't know.

 

[Jimmy Higgins]

It isn't nonsense. These are legitimate gripes. Existence is pretty much an unexplained phenomena.

Saying atheists are wrong because A, B, and C when they don't actually have a solution to A, B, or C either is nonsense.

Based on everything we know, existence really isn't possible. We exist, therefore there is stuff we don't know.

However, because there is existence non-existence is impossible, and not just physically but also theoretically. When I say non-existence, I am referring to the basic idea of nothing ever existing, not where an atomic particle or other object ceases to exist and/or is converted to energy.
