My toaster inspired my holy book 7,777 years ago. What are you talking about? Mine evidently has more prestige and truth in it than yours.Your's is not a religion in the least; it's just monkey see monkey do. If you had wrote about your whatever 3500 years ago you might be able to compare notes. Heck, I'd even grant you as recently as 1300 AD.Off the cuff 2 hours ago does not count as foresight
(And I'd expect you t know better than to associate me with religion by now - you really thought you could sneak that in there?
Ever see Life of Brian?YouTube - ‪MontyPython Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch‬‏
(I like the earlier scene better, where the monks are hitting themselves in the head)
Nonetheless, if you propose the Bible as having 'prior knowledge', the onus is on you to demonstrate as such. Remember, your original post was:Specific predictions is the realm of scientific theory, right? So why would you want to project that upon an entirely different discipline? Scripture isn't even observation; it's revelation. And it provokes questions such as: of what nature is this "Light?"
They certainly believed that. The early scientists sought evidence for things like the Great Flood - they were Creationists. What they found did not conform to their prior beliefs.The early pioneers of science understood they were merely looking at G-d's handiwork, and attempting to understand the "how," when (sometimes) the why had already been revealed.
How so?Now between CMBR and string theory, I am not claiming that either represents G-d Himself, or even that He operates at that level or in that manner. I am proposing that BOTH exist as a means of insight into who He truly is ...
Because we so often hear Christians go on about how their religion is the only way. Yet, any effort of their part to actually demonstrate this can be used by other religions to show that they are the One True Faith. The criticism, then, is that the claim to the uniqueness of Christianity is unfounded. Your original post seemed to say that "This piece of scientific evidence is also evidence for my religion" - which, as FrenchyBearpaw pointed out, is not the case.That dog don't hunt. If you made up a religion, any vague resemblance would have the benefit of hindsight. And just because I see a clear connection, would not mean that you wouldAnd it really puzzles me why atheists think that a different religion that may have something just as valid would in any way "invalidate" anything G-d has always reached out to mankind.
God is a black body?Sounds a lot like G-d is Light, combined with "The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge. [There is] no speech nor language, [where] their voice is not heard. (Psalm 19)
Well, basically, it's just due to how amazingly bright the CMB is. Something like 99% of all of the radiation ever emitted is in the CMB. In fact, the CMB is so incredibly bright, that in the frequency range where the CMB is near its peak, the small deviations in temperature, which are fluctuations of around one part in one hundred thousand in temperature, are much brighter than our galaxy across most of the sky.
Thanks!Yup!
I remember getting some strange looks from the kids on the corridor when we watched Holy Grail in English class and a bunch of us left the classroom with notebooks in hand, chanting "Pie Iesu domine..." *WHACK*(I like the earlier scene better, where the monks are hitting themselves in the head)
My Latin teacher had us all watch Brian get schooled in Latin at sword point.I remember getting some strange looks from the kids on the corridor when we watched Holy Grail in English class and a bunch of us left the classroom with notebooks in hand, chanting "Pie Iesu domine..." *WHACK*
Haha, not exactly a question to ask a physicistQuestion.
I know their are underwater volcanic extreamaphiles, but are their lifeforms that live near surface lava lakes / flowes?
It is an incredibly funny movie. But I can't see my teachers showing it in full. (of course, I'm in high schoolApparently it was "appropriate" enough for my school.
Haha, not exactly a question to ask a physicist
However, my naive suspicion is that there is none or next to none, because those lava flows are far above the boiling point of water, so that there basically isn't going to be any liquid water in the vicinity, which life on Earth needs.

If you're not suggesting the Bible contains knowledge that's only now being discovered by scientists, then I don't know what your point was.
religions to show that they are the One True Faith.
Your original post seemed to say that "This piece of scientific evidence is also evidence for my religion"
No, it's addressing the Lord Jesus. Based on my rusty little Latin plus some dictionary browsing, "Pie Iesu domine, dona eis requiem" means something like "Holy Lord Jesus, give them rest"Bolded part means Jesus is God is 3, right?
The CMBR is the spectrum of a nearly perfect black body, a black body being something that absorbs all radiation falling on it (so that anything it emits is completely determined by its temperature). So if the CMBR is God light, then God is a black body.If you follow the little blue arrow back, you will see your comment "God is a black body?" I'm missing something. Why is that relevant?
Besides, the relationship is quite obviously a pure accident when you look at the "let there be light" phrase in context.The CMBR is the spectrum of a nearly perfect black body, a black body being something that absorbs all radiation falling on it (so that anything it emits is completely determined by its temperature). So if the CMBR is God light, then God is a black body.
Absolutely! The principle of least action, as it applies to Newtonian physics (which is applicable in this case) is just a rewriting of Newton's second law (F=ma).Does the physical "principle of least action" apply to people walking up mountains?
