You didn't even bother reading what i show to you , before you even open the link you alredy gave that guy title "kook" , you are the ignorant one , if authour of that article would be Stepean Hawking you would read it .
Because it was the same kook that made the video and I found a source that refuted him.
Listen, if a fool can't get his idea over the relatively low bar of peer review it is almost certainly wrong. It does not count as evidence.
Nicolas Copernicus had trouble with his flath earth peer aswell so , because one person thinks different that for you means you should just neglect it ?
Why is it, I wonder, that the only people peddling the idea that the speed of light might be variable are all YECs?
Nobody has believed the Earth was flat since at least 200BC. Copernicus' heliocentric theory was hotly debated, as are all new scientific theories, but the debate eventually gets settled one way or the other when the one, rather than the other, turns out to have greater explanatory power.
It's to make point that truth is truth no matter if 99% of people believe it or 1% .
That may be, but I would need very good reason to believe that truth lay with the 1%; especially if they had no particular qualifications relative to the question in hand.
Matthew 7:14
Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
Grasping the concept of unconditional love. Until they do, they remain enslaved to conditional fear.I'm curious to know what type of 'evidence' of God that the resident atheists around here might accept, and find compelling?
Mark 3:28-29
28Verily I say unto you, All sins shall be forgiven unto the sons of men, and blasphemies wherewith soever they shall blaspheme:
29 But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation:
Can't be more clear than eternal damnation.
Someone can indeed mentally cut themselves off from the presence of God within, and deny it's existence too. That's a bit of self imposed "hell" I suppose, but it does *not* demonstrate a "malice" from God.
How do you even try to square the concept of God going out of his way to torment creations of his own design for the whole of eternity with Sermon on the Mount?
FYI, the concept of eternal torment does not and has not ever existed in Judaism, and Jesus was the *Jewish* Messiah.
Origin's teachings are entirely consistent with the afterlife beliefs of the Jews in Christ's audience, whereas Augustine's *pagan* concept of a perpetual Hades was not.
The path to God is through unconditional love, not by fear.
When was the last time you read the NT? It must have been a very long time ago, given that you don't seem able to recall its contents.
Probably around the same time you read a textbook by an astrophysics textbook written by an astrophysicist, rather than by an electrical engineer with an agenda.

Still waiting for a relevant citation.
I'm also waiting for you to wake up and smell the coffee as it relates the the importance of the electric field with respect to solar physics.
It's no accident that the bulk of all inbound cosmic rays are *positively* charged particles, or that that the sun's surface emits cathode rays. There's an *electrical* interaction happening which the mainstream simply ignores, which is why they have such a hard time explaining something as simple as an electrically generated corona.
Birkeland built *working* models of the solar atmosphere over 100 years ago, including coronal loops, a hot corona, both types of 'solar wind' particles, polar jets, cathode rays, etc, whereas the mainstream still cannot create a *working* model of a full sphere corona in 2017. How sad is that?
Really? What am I afraid of? While you're at it, what my grandmother's maiden name?Grasping the concept of unconditional love. Until they do, they remain enslaved to conditional fear.
Proverbs 9:10
Untill you realise that you were lost and damned to hell , you don't need God .
None of Israel were appointed to hell , they were going to Abraham Bossom by believing in Messiah.
Luke 16:19-31
You're still ignoring the *purpose* of "gehenna" in Judaism and in early Christianity. Origin's description of the purpose of the "fire" of gehenna is entirely consistent with that passages from Luke, and any and all OT references you might come up with.
That fire is a *cleansing* flame, it's not a perpetual torment device! We all have to be cleansed of our sins on Earth, and we will (and do) all experience shame for our sins. The cleansing process is thought to be 'harder' for those with greater sin, and shorter and easier for those who commit less sin. In no case was the cleansing process expected to take more than 12 months *by tradition*.
You can't even logically square the concept of malicious eternal torment with the value system taught by Christ during the Sermon on the Mount. It's entirely possible to square the teachings of early Church fathers like Origin with the Sermon on the Mount.
Augustine was raised in the pagan tradition, and he imposed his own pagan afterlife fears upon Christianity *centuries* later.
You can post your pretty picture of a couple of spheres connected to a high voltage power source as often as you like. It will still prove nothing.
