Archaeology of the New Testament

I told you countless times the Physical universe is a reaction to Satan entering YHWH's space causing the Big Bang!
Spirit universe predates the Physical universe
It's important to get people on record saying if they think the best inference for a rational, lawful, logical universe is that it was caused by something irrational, inanimate, and immaterial.

That type of discussion can only occur in the context of math, logic, and physics.
 
The beliefs of Albert Einstein carry weight.

It is extremely noteworthy that Einstein believed the universe is organized and rational, while you believe the universe is random and unorganized.
Again, the belief of organized and rational, as you are using it, clearly implies and organizer and a conscious intent to make it "rational".
Comparing your belief to Einstein's belief on something as fundamental to science as the rational intelligibility of the universe is highly revealing.
I'm comparing my beliefs to your beliefs.
You claimed for months, along with your friend IntoTheNight that the universe is random, unorganized, that universal laws and principles are just arbitrary constructions of the human mind.
Yes. The universe is a disaster of random pieces of stone, a trillion stars that will all eventually burn out, some random mixture of solid but not really solid planets and an Earth that has killed off 99% of all species of animal that has ever existed. And the one being that your creator put extra importance in creating, is full of flaws....all of which your creator could have excluded.
That is profoundly anti-science, and directly contradicts the most fundamental belief underlying the scientific enterprise.
Nope. Anti science would be denying gravity or the existence of atoms. You're trying to overlay opinion as science to smuggle God into the equation.
So now you are back tracking and insinuating it is correct to believe the universe actually is organized, mathematically rational, governed by universal principles expressed as the pure logic of math.
The universe has forces at play. Gravity, magnetism, etc. That is the science I'm agreeing exists. The universe is highly disorganized.
Good, so I was right these last six months.

Now, explain to me if it is logical to infer that the best explanation for the rational, lawful, logical is that it was somehow caused by the irrational, inanimate, and immaterial.
I'm not going to attempt to rationalize your opinion which I disagree with.

The universe is governed by forces that man, after the fact, attempts to explain. Outside of those forces, like gravity and magnetism, the universe is clearly unorganized and full of obvious flaws, many of which are highly detrimental to the ONE creature that your God put here to have a relationship with.

Im asking you to take a stand on a very simple question of logic which doesn't require knowledge of physics or math. I'm not even asking up you to state what is true. I'm just asking you a simple question of abstractive logic.

Do you believe the most logical explanation for the cause of a rational, lawful universe is something irrational, inanimate, and immaterial, or not?
The universe has forces at play. Gravity, magnetism, etc. That is the science I'm agreeing exists. The universe is highly disorganized.
If the universe is highly disorganized the scientific enterprise would not be possible.

See Albert Einstein, Isaac Newton, James Clerk Maxwell, etc. for reference.

You're trying to modify what you previously stated. You stated everything is disorganized. You didn't make exceptions for gravity or magnetism.

I don't see any organization in the universe.

the universe is clearly unorganized and full of obvious flaws,
Compared to the universal fundamental gravitational, nuclear, and electromagnetic forces, compared to universal laws of conservation, compared to the universal laws of mechanics, compared to the universal physical constants of nature, any flaws in your wisdom teeth or knee joints are infinitesimal and inconsequential. You are being self absorbed and self centered.

many of which are highly detrimental to the ONE creature that your God put here to have a relationship with.
I haven't mentioned the God of Abraham.

The fact that you keep returning time after time to a cartoon of a sky wizard in a white robe suggests you are still hung up on something that happened to you at the church your parents dragged you to, rather than answering the deeper philosophical questions about the origins of the cosmos

Did you notice the name of this thread???? It opens the door to the Spirit side!! I merely, told Spiritual history, that effected the creation of the physical universe!

I agree! Organized Religion ,turns Spiritual reality,to Babel!
 
You didn't answer the question. Did the universal vector field we named 'gravity' which is manifested as an inverse square mathmatical relationship exist billions of years before humans "observed" it, or not?
Math error. A vector is not a field.
There is no such thing as a 'universal vector field'.
Math was created by Man.
The inverse square law was created by Man.
Also, explain why the universe has predictable, mathmatically rational, organized "patterns".
The Universe is unorganized. No pattern.
Any answer that invokes a "that's just the way it is!" type of response is both an intellectually lazy and unsatisfying answer
Too bad. The Universe is unorganized.

Magick Words (record, inference, best, rational, lawful, logic, irrational, inanimate, immaterial). Buzzword fallacies. Try English. Don't mindlessly chant.
That type of discussion can only occur in the context of math, logic, and physics.
You deny math.
You deny logic.
You deny science, and therefore physics.

The 'flaws' are YOUR creation. You can't blame them on the Universe.

These are men, each of which CREATED the theories of science they are known for.

Magick Words (gravity, magnetism). Try English. Neither gravity nor magnetism is the Universe.

How do you know the Universe has an origin?
 
Einstein also didn't believe in a personal god found in religions and was not religious.
I know that and have written numerous times here that Einstein was a Pantheist who thought the rational intelligibility of the universe was astonishing and pointed to something marvelous.

The rationality of the universe is what we've been discussing for 500 posts.

You are quite similar to IntoTheNight in that you both believe the universe is unorganized, random, and that the natural laws and universal constants are arbitrary constructions of the human mind and are not objectively real properties of the cosmos.

That is profoundly anti-science.

Which it is.... even excluding the ongoing attempts to smuggle in a creator.

The universe speaks for itself. Despite the forces, like gravity, that impact the behavior of objects in the universe, the universe is still highly disorganized.

I can say that the electricity that runs through our house is marvelous and the way water just appears when I turn on the faucet is astonishing, but that doesn't make my sons room any less of a disaster.

And, again, even if you believe it is organized, that doesn't mean there's a creator.

You haven't explained how your worldview is the best explanation: that a rational and lawful universe is caused by the irrational and inanimate.
yes.

Explain what is disorganized. Your son's bedroom doesn't count. At the scale we are talking about - the cosmos - neither do your wisdom teeth or knees.
I can say that the electricity that runs through our house is marvelous
I don't think you realize how many things have to go right and how much organization, in terms of the laws, principles, and universal constants, there has to be for you to have an electromagnetic current.
and the way water just appears when I turn on the faucet is astonishing
An incredible number of physical principles, laws, and universal constants had to converge on the edge of the proverbial razor blade for atomic matter, like the water molecule, to exist.
, but that doesn't make my sons room any less of a disaster.
That has nothing to do with the universal laws, properties, and constants of the universe.
And, again, even if you believe it is organized, that doesn't mean there's a creator.
All I'm saying is that the best explanation for the cause of the rational and lawful is something rational.

You have never explained how your worldview is the best explanation: that a rational and lawful universe is caused by the irrational and inanimate.

You have sufficient information right now to provisionally choose if it's more logical to infer whether the rational can only come from the rational, or if it makes more sense that the rational was caused by the irrational.
 
All I'm saying is that the best explanation for the cause of the rational and lawful is something rational.
The best explanation for YOU, because you WANT to believe in a conscious creator. That belief is 100% speculation. As I've pointed out many times, there are flaws in the design of the universe, earth and man.
