Bullshit. Where in the Bible is there a piece of wisdom that is not common sense, that could have come from OUTSIDE the Bible?
Well I don't feel like wasting time trawling through bible for quotes atm, but much of western common sense came from the bible which has had a huge influence on us. Things like love, greed, cleanliness, compassion, doing the right thing, selflessness... etc, all in the bible as instructions. And its not common sense either, easy for humans to go off the rails and live like pigs. The scripture they read in Prince Charles/Dianne's wedding in the cathedral, "Love is..." Fantastic scripture.
That is very old school scientifically. Scientists now agree that the universe had a beginning and will grow to a very cold end.
You look forward to being squashed out of existence like a bug and I look forward to a future that "no eye has seen and no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those that love Him". I say this with deep sadness for you because you will live forever in the condition that you choose.
Look forward all you like, doesn't mean it'll happen. You make too many assumptions to arrive at too many false conclusions.
There are only two world views possible. Either you believe the Universe (and thus us) exist because of some sort of Cosmic accident or you believe that it is a creation of God. To believe that nothingness exploded and instantly created all the finely tuned laws of nature, gravity, thermodynamics, etc that keep the order of the universe, and then the miracle of life being established on an earth prepared to receive it and then man with his conscious mind, is just impossible. That leaves God as the Creator so you best get to know Him and what His plan for this creation is.
The universe is huuuuuge, the wonders, magnificence, mystery, amazingness, too awesome to describe. There are (scientific type) Laws at work we have not even yet imagined. But for christians: Everything is black and white, can be explained, they are right, can be wrapped up in a few words in a book, christians know all about God. Mind boggling stupidity. Too mind boggling stupid to describe.
God, if there is one, is nothing at all like christians imagine. Christianity and the bible are man made institutions, nothing to do with God creation other than, we are all created somehow.
