As our mass travels from its place of creation it begins to turn into something else. Which leaves me wondering if we will ever make it to Mars...

Well, at the time in the 1920s, most scientists back then thought the universe was in a steady state (as in, it has existed for infinitely many years). Lemaitre was the first scientist, along with Hubble to prove that the universe had a beginning.

:sigh:

If the questions are too hard, I'll withdraw them.

And even modern science is thinking there may have been multiple big bangs...

"That's the curse and the blessing of an expanding universe. There is no center, and yet at the same time, all observers, including us, can rightfully claim to be in the middle of it all." - Where is the center of the universe?

Well, artificial gravity could help, where spacecraft could spin slowly to create force (to avoid the consequences of microgravity), similar to how a washing machine drains water or centrifuge spins out material in a test tube. But hey, it is late here. I look forward to discussing space more tomorrow. :)

Well hey, you do you, my friend. We will never know the true secrets of Creation until we meet God in Heaven after we grow old or pass away into eternal life with Jesus. :) But, science has strengthened my faith in God, as we have revealed a lot of information about the skies above. My forum buddy @sjastro could attest, as he takes beautiful photos of space and is a Christian as well.

Anyways, it is getting late here, but it is good that science (when done properly), can prove faith.

For instance, my guy @Vambram made a post about how archeologists proved a Biblical event where 185,000+ soldiers were killed 2,700 years ago near Jerusalem: Proof of Bible story about angels killing 185,000 soldiers in a night is uncovered after 2,700 years

If you go back and look at Vambram's thread you'll see that, within minutes, at least four posters pointed out the inaccuracies in the Daily Mail headline and the insinuation of things proven which were definitely not proven. There was no proof that angels. or anyone else, killed 185,000 Assyrians. There was no proof that angels killed any Assyrians. There was no proof found that angels were in any way involved.

It appears you were the only viewer who missed all this. In the past I've warned you about trusting tabloids like the Daily Mail. I need to add the need to read attached articles and use a little critical thinking.

A little scepticism is a useful quality. Automatically believing what you want to believe is the best way of fooling yourself.

"True secrets of Creation"???

You mean "secrets" like Who did it, why He did it, where He did it, how He did it, when He did it, what order He did it in, why it took Him that long, and who the eyewitnesses were?

I do agree, it is a good idea to be a little skeptical. :) The Daily Mail is kinda a trash newspaper, so Vambram could have used an archeological journal instead, saying, "evidence for 185,000 Assyrian deaths happen near Jerusalem", which could be paired with a Biblical event, instead of the Daily Mail's claim that "Evidence found that Angel killed 185,000 Assyrian soldiers".

Well, since God did the creation, he will tell us about it when we reach Heaven. Right now, science is not at the right process to uncover the exact physics at the Big Bang.

What will He add to it that we don't already know?



I wonder why? :rolleyes:
Who knows, we might find out that a day in Genesis means an eon, or maybe a day was a true 24 hour day, but time distorted somehow to appear to be millions of years old. Anyways, I have to tell someone here about why "The Chosen" is not a good TV show to learn about the Gospel, as the series was made by Mormons. We must use discernment as Christians.

Except the archeologists didn't find evidence of mass deaths of any kinds. They found an encampment of an army already attested in the Assyrian documents. A nice find to be certain, but nothing like the headline of the DM.

Agreed. It is about time that the Daily Mail gets shut down, or at least, restructured. Even the British complain about the DM, and folks have mafe posts on Reddit (I do not have an account there, but I read it sometimes to see other's opinions on stuff), called r/Britishproblems.

Here is an article that explains how the Daily Mail can sensationalize a UN Report among other things: Daily Mail exploits failing regulatory system to mislead its readers - Grantham Research Institute on climate change and the environment

These are called galaxies. The universe is only one, containing everything (thats why the term "universe").

Lemaitre was the first scientist, along with Hubble to prove that the universe had a beginning. The concept of a "beginning" of the universe is a Christian ideal. Anyways, it is getting late here, but it is good that science (when done properly), can prove faith.
Except they didn't prove the universe had a beginning, they showed that it has expanded from a very hot dense state. Whether that was the beginning or there was something before that is still unknown, but the scientific bet is increasingly on there being something prior (assuming a temporal description is applicable).
