Thread: Big Bang=God?

A very informative video on the debate between science and religion on the existence of god.


YouTube - Big Bang = God?

science and religion do not contradict each other.

YouTube - Contact Intro

If you watch this clip and play Yes's "Awaken" from thier LP "Going for the one" It's like that whole Dark Side of the Moon - Wizard of Oz thing.

I think the word "God" has about as much to do with the unknown goings on of the universe...as the last thought a bug has about humans does before someone steps on it on a sidewalk by accident.

So great, we needed two of the same.. :sarcasticfainting:

As I am typing this post there is only one BIG BANG science
project that I am aware of, and it can be reviewed on this
site WMAP Big Bang Cosmology
On this site mankind is tempting to play GOD by trying to
recreate the beginning & creation of the universe.

Now maybe I am offtrack with this subject, but this is a
form of playing GOD (if there is a GOD), and the question
is What or Who is GOD? To me this is a uptight subject
to discuss, due to the fact that we ALL have our own
beliefs, and who are WE to tell someone that what they
believe in is not correct.

I am asking posters on this thread are we on the same
subject, or are we speaking about something different?
If we are on the same page this site is perfect for a
serious discussion (The Big Bang), due to the fact that
we are talking about religion, politics, and maybe people
who are trying to destory the world with their selfish
reasons.

They do, and they don't.

It depends on what tools one is to use. If one is to use the tools of religion to assess both science and religion, they contradict. Inversely, if one is to use the tools of science to assess both, they contradict as well.

The two require distinctly different trains of thought.
