Re: Agnostic Theist Reporting For Duty

I'm not asking you a scientific question. I'm asking why your more complicated explanation is better than the current less complicated explanation. Does it explain more things? That would be a philosophical question I think.

My explanation is not better than anybody else's. As for explanations, I wouldn't know, although I'd likely say yes if I did know because I don't have to turn to a book. As for complication when it comes to explanations, I'd be more inclined to say that you guys have the more complicated one, as it is physically (and medically/scientifically) impossible to create a man from dust and then a woman from his rib. Between that and aliens, aliens would be more plausible, unless they had the technology to do what you believe happened, which would make both plausible.

And I mentioned the whole thing about science because it's obvious that some people here think that I'm a science professor who can just pull information out from thin air (something that I wish I could do but can't).

Which, shortened, would make you an Anglo Celtsy Nazi.

Ashkenazi is a branch of Judaism and has nothing to do with being a Nazi. It share similarities with Sephardic Judaism, and whoever it was that decided to put Nazi in my rank should remove it because I do not endorse the Nazi way of life.

Re: Agnostic Theist Reporting For Duty

We all came from somewhere (and that includes non-human life). Also, the conditions for life on Earth aren't just limited to Earth. I also said I'm not a scientific genius, so asking me to scientifically prove anything is not the wisest thing to do because you're asking me questions that can't even be answered yet with the technology that we have.

Although there is one thing that does come to mind and that's the theory that what we require in order to live might not be what extraterrestrials require in order to live. Oh, and before I head into the land of dreams, I will ask you all a question which you must try to scientifically prove (just so you can how it feels to be asked something you don't know the answer to)...

How were omnipresent beings created?

So if God made the aliens who made the aliens who made the aliens who made the aliens who made the aliens who made the aliens who made the aliens who made the aliens who made the aliens who made the aliens who made the aliens who made the aliens who made the aliens who made the aliens who made the aliens who made life on earth why couldn't God have just made life on Earth?

Or if you're suggesting the aliens just made us, why couldn't God have just made us.

Are you familiar with Occam's razor?

As for my genetics, I am of Anglo-Saxon, Celtic, Gypsy (Roma/Sinti), and (possibly) Ashkenazi Jewish (etc) descent.

Re: Agnostic Theist Reporting For Duty

Yes, as nobody truly knows how life begins. That's where both creationism and evolutionism both come in, as both sides think that they have the answer.

The answer to your question regarding extraterrestrials is (like the beginning of life) nobody knows, although I'm sure that they will know at some point (in whoever knows how many years time).

And I'm not a scientific genius.

I take it this is the supreme being who created life.

Who created the extraterrestrials? More extraterrestrials?

Says the person who thinks that a star - other than the Sun - can be seen as anything else than a dot in the sky through a telescope.

Do you even know what a Messier Object is?

Well, it must be very crowded in your dreams, especially when all of the Hittite thunder gods - and there are several dozens of them - start fighting with each other!



If you really want to learn something about Norse mythology, pick up one of the Eddas rather than a modern novel.

Norse Mythology may have been written by a modern author but it is full of Eddas, as Neil did a fair bit of research, and thanks to him, I now know that Thor's hammer (amongst many other things) was made by dwarves, and that they have their own version of Adam and Eve (Ask and Embla), plus other things which I had no idea about.

As for finding supreme beings, yeah, I've found all of them, and I've spoken to all versions of them in my dreams.

I did just recently pick up a brand new bible which I am currently reading. It's called Norse Mythology, and I know more about Thor and co than I did before I started reading it.

(Note: Norse Mythology isn't actually a bible, but the latest book by Neil Gaiman).

Re: Agnostic Theist Reporting For Duty

Your way of thinking is very unique, indeed.

What other beings have you met/found? Krishna? Budda? Pachamama? Svetovid? Inanna? Or maybe one of the Trickster-type deities? Or any of the deus otiosus type of deities?

If you've found Inanna, I'd love to hear all about her. She was a truly bad-ass goddess!

If you've seen a star through a telescope as anything else than a dot of light, then your telescope is broken. Only planets and deep sky objects, such as the Messier objects, look interesting when seen through a telescope.

Definitely not a star.

And de gustibus non est disputandum.

Re: Agnostic Theist Reporting For Duty

Is agnostic that thing where you can't smell properly?

If so, I'm sorry for your loss.

It's where I believe in the possibility that there is a supreme being but it has to be scientifically proved. It's also where I form my own opinions about things like the beginning of humanity (I believe that we were created by extraterrestrials but that they are not showing themselves because they are embarrassed by what we are doing). I also don't have anything to lose (although I do wish I hadn't broken my nose when I was a child, as I'm more prone to colds now, and my sense of smell isn't what it was prior to the incidents).
