recent realization (Big Bang)
    #5471629 - 04/02/06 05:58 PM (17 years, 11 months ago)

I have been thinking lately and have thought of a new idea of the big bang. I think what was before the big bang must have been God. I picture it as sphere type. I see God in everything and I think this is because God is in everything just proportionaly smaller than before the big bang.

I am a neutral one-man faction in all this. Kind of Like the Libertarian party.... sometimes they are ultra-conservative, then other times ultra liberal.

I was always for the split, and I think those distincions between the two should be observed. The logic part was joking.... just because someone has some reverence for logical behaviour does not mean they are part of the swami cabal...

btw, Im glad that name stuck.

i wasn't sure if you were joking or not. i'm also in favor of the split because i think people should be able to post whatever wild trip induced theories enter their heads without always being met by a slew of critisism and scorn like was so often the case here. i don't think it means logic must be left behind there though.

I agree, but threads like these..... well atleast the thread starter, belong with their ilk. It helps for better discussion when you talk about this crap with the 2012 crowd.

oh i definitely think people should observe the distinction when making threads, i only posted because i wanted to see whether you were joking about the forum lacking anything logical. i think the confusion arises over the word "spirituality" in the title of this forum, which is why i liked it better when it was called philosophy.

Perhaps Philosophy and Morality would be better?

that would be fine. i just think its confusing for new people especially, because maybe they have what they consider a spiritual experience or they are interested in spirituality and so they post here only to be told they're in the wrong place.

that's what i've always thought, mysticism and religion both fall under the umbrella term of spirituality. while its often initially clear which forum a thread should go in, the discussions here can easily shift into the realm of mysticism and/or religion. i remember icelander once telling me one of my replies was too mystical for this forum, well it's not like i can move the entire thread with one reply and i don't think it makes sense to not post relevant information merely because the forum lacks the word mysticism in the title.

I agree with both you and Psilocyberin - the nebulosity of such a term does lead to alot of messiness in this forum. Some people recognize spirituality as another term for introspective psychology with pertinence to methods of epistemology in a layman's sort of way. On the other hand, some recognize the word to mean mystical, other-worldly, esoteric experiences.

Philosophy and Morality would be an excellent alternative. In the presence of popular demands of this forum, I doubt the admins would have any substantial reason to refuse such a minor adjustment to the title. But first we'll have to see if it is a well-agreed upon idea. I propose a poll to gather the opinions of the regulars here in this forum. If the majority agree with us, then we should have a sufficient case to present to the admins.

I think what was before the big bang must have been God.

So... what was before God?

Why can't you say that about the Big Bang itself and save yourself a step?

because you are thinking in terms of "time". What was before is inconceivable to humans. Before is God's "time". The big bang theory makes sense up until you ask what's before the bang. Everythin works out too well for the bang to be a random act.

conciousness comming from random explosion?

Nope. You're the one who said:

I think what was before the big bang must have been God

I just responded in kind.

What was before is inconceivable to humans

If it's inconceivable, you can't know know anything about it, including if it was God or not, so why bring it up?

Of course, there would be a more interesting solution by making a "Spirituality & Morality" forum....
