Dude;

<shaking head> Don't bother questioning it. Just accept that this
thread is high in platitudinal intelligence.
Actually I was thinking about lightning. That is a spark but no one is
there to create it.

You will not believe until you life has entered a time in space where
all reason fails and belief takes over.
Then you will believe we are not a lone.
And When we die we simple do not stop. We go on!.

And if you're really, really good, you'll see the Emperor's new
clothes too.

Or the universe. Or matter/antimatter pairs appearing out of the
quantum foam. Or ...

Are you sure about that?.

If you claim there is the burden is yours. Asking for proof of the
non-existence of something universal is illogical.

So, yes, barring your presentation of proof, there's nothing there.
(We know the mechanism by which lightning comes into existence, so
there's no god in that gap. And the gaps keep getting smaller and
fewer all the time.)

What do you know?


Why do people always want to come to one. Like there is ONE world....
(the round blue, white, green, and somewhere brown planet)

A human does have two round, ermm.. balls. Two Eggs. Two Eyes, two
legs, two nose-opening, two arse-halves, two hands, two ears and so on.

And saying 'WE', is not making your postings more believable. Humans
only know Yes and No at the same time (thats all man). There is nothing
fixed!!!



People have to understand the planet is other than humans. We are
dual-capable mammals, but the planet earth (even it is only one) can
feel two or more seasons at the same time :). CAN YOU DO THIS???

E.g. A human can describe a time-period very well, from beginning to
the end. But he/she cannot start a time-period, someone always want to
know how or what is the end :)

So please, dear Al, try to fan out your comments a bit. It would
possibly enblighten your real thinking about, to us. We are not in the
church here, and you do not really sound like a priest or so.

Tesla was a scientist and he scrutinized his findings more than any other
person.
He also did not reveal what he found until he had all the facts.
But if you were to show a computer to a prehistoric person,
and he would scratch his head. The same exact thing happened
when Tesla showed what he found. No one could understand it
but a few scientists.

You should study more about who he was and then talk.

All that is on the internet is not true.. however you can find information
that you normally would not have access to.

Your belief set is wrong, you have what I call a scotoma.

Therefore they have there 'faculties'. Where you can learn, what is not
known by fact.

Yes, at this Time. I can imagine in which awe the unknowledged stared
at teslas Findings.

Hi, prehistoric person.

He would claim that there's a god inside the computer - your stance.
"I can't understand it so it must be magic."
Your belief set is wrong, you have what I call a scotoma.

You have what I call "fall-for-anything-itis".

BTW, a scotoma is a portion of the retina that's non-functional, not
one that sees things that aren't there.

The use of the word Scotia is correct.
You are not seeing things that are there by having mental blocks.
The word is used in this way, and not only for a problem with the eye.

I know that given enough time and effort anything is possible.
Your limited view of reality is problematic.

Take a look at the recent findings in quantum physics, you will see that
"your" universe
is not what you think it is.

Do I HAVE to point you to the information that will try to open your eyes?
(as if that was possible, HA!)
I dont want to do that in the newsgroups.

How much time and effort would it take for an omnipotent creature to
render itself impotent? (Look up "anything". Look up "logical
contradiction". Look up "equivocate".)

Your unlimited ability to swallow anything is amusing.

"your" universe is not what you think it is.

Oh, please, john, explain quantum chromodynamics to me. I'm all ears.

The name for that is credulous.

In john's case it's "open minded". Totally open to anything. In both
directions.



Hi Al!



I reckon you are living in America. So let John at least 4 directions,
bez so they start - Not both sided, no, four-sided. :)


Happy, silly, left- and right.

Examples? Well,: LEFTradical=Last Visit of G. Bush at the Queen of
England, South-america, Indians etc. RIGHTradical=just turn on the TV
or read the NEws

So, if he is also from America (The 16 or less States of America who
ratified the Constitution), then I can understand his behaviour :)
