Still don't understand death

Is our purpose truly inborn or does it evolve as we do? This brings me to the question of is our life pre-destined. However, if that is true, then we don't truly have the option of free will.

The Beginning

Is it possible that if humanity followed their intuition more often, it would result in a refining of intellect? Intuition drives us to perform basic acts to ensure survival. It is because we have an…

It is exactly because the cycle will never end that we try again and again. We cannot prove where and how we will continue to enact these processes. The nature of the cycle's goal on earth is is pred…

It is hard to let go of long-held beliefs whether it is about a small single item or a large group. To have taken that away with you in any way is an accomplishment. Chandra, I have learned from you, as well. Thank you for being willing to talk with…

The subject threw me, as well. I expected a debate on Darwin, myself. Despite the initial response, it was interesting. Difficult as the subject is center of such a heated debate. However, this was a safe place to have the conversation as you said.

Jim, I spent quite a while coming to the Intelligent Design conclusion and in my own mind fought the concept for quite a while. It was a geology class that made me change my ideas on the subject. The fossil record made my arguments moot. I may be…

God is separate from creation. God created. Just as I would create a sculpture. My intelligence gave me the creativity and knowledge to design my sculpture. Jim, Was it hard for you to reconcile the two? It was for me after years of training to the…

Human Origin Final Thought

God created the world according to His design on His time table. If you accept His absolute power and absolute knowledge, then you may be able to at least consider the concept.

God does know his children. That does not mean, given free will, that our choices are pre-destined or controlled. God did not chart which women would choose abortion; however, He does work with our choices. We lose sight of the fact that our lives are but a glimmer in time and our pain, while seeming eternal in this worl… Continue

Creation, Evolution, or Intelligent Design

I know it has been discussed in other places here, but It was going to come up eventually....

I know what the Bible says and have learned well the lessons growing up in a Christian faith that backs only the creation theory. I have also sat in science classes that make an equally strong argument for the fossil record proving the first life in the era that includes humans. It was difficult to reconcile given the doctrine that had taken firm hold in my mind.

However, I did eventually confront the… Continue

Life's Origin

The debates about when human life actually begins often leave me speechless. This debate caused such passion on both sides of the debate, even in my youth I understood it was important. That it was used to determine deadlines for abortion is sad.

Human life begins at the moment of conception. At that time, biological processes begin and whether the sould has entered the body or is just waiting patiently for further growth, it has found its home.

Human Origin Phi 214

People are often blessed by not knowing what the future holds. If there were a child who would be chronically ill and have a difficult life, should that pregnancy be ended? If the choice is not to abort, the parent needs to carry the burden of months finding a diagnosis and wondering if the child they love will die. The child also has to fight that battle. After a diagnosis is found, you are told there is no cure. Did the parent make a mistake keeping the child? The child is in pain her entire l… Continue

I have a dream that some day we are in equilibrium with nature and the forests again will be old growth forests. I love forests and just went to a park today that is still old growth. It's sort of sad actually to have a park for old growth.

David, got to agree there is no separation between humanity and nature. We are all part of nature by the simple fact that we perceive ourselves as being present in this physical realm. The only difference I have seen is that nature just is that whic…
