Half the universe is missing!

matter, anti matter, and doesn't matter.... I'll show myself out

 

"The fact that we exist suggests there is something we don'tunderstand."

This is basically the gist of why I believe in a higher power. If there wasn’t a higher power, I don’t think anything would exist. Instead of the something that is the universe we live in there would be nothing.

 

Don’t necessarily disagree, but then what would explain the existence of the higher power?

 

Which way is down?

 

It’s turtles all the way down.

 

I guess that just isn’t a hang up for me. Suffice to say there are things afoot that are way, way beyond our ability to comprehend. And our existence, IMO, is proof of that. But that’s as far as my lizard brain can get with it. But I just don’t think we are having this conversation right now (or anything else exists) if there isn’t a higher power.

 

I believe in a higher power, and I think the statement can be challenged by recognizing the presumption of assuming that there was an equal amount of matter and antimatter to start with.

Unless I'm missing the joke, this took place on Earth, it's just a reference to the gravitational attraction that was predicted to exist, but only recently observed.

The antimatter stuff is above my pay grade. I just feel confident that if there weren’t something more to it, there simply wouldn’t have been a big bang. It just seems logical to me that in the absence of a higher power the default would be nothing instead of something. And we have something.

 

What is mind? No matter.
What is matter? Never mind.

 

Oh, thanks. I thought it was in the universe.

 

Read that this morning. I pondered, but all I could say was "Aflack!"

 

Where your feet are, if you're standing up.

 

It might help if you defined "higher power".

 

I’m being intentionally vague because I haven’t the slightest idea of what it is or how to define it. Existence, in and of itself, just seems intentional to me.

 

"The fact that we exist suggests there is something we don't understand."

LOL! That's like stoner-waxing-philosophical stuff right there.

I guess we got everything figured out, except for that one little 'something'....

Pass da bong bra!

 

I don't disagree with the "Intelligent Design"
concept often cited by creationists.

I do disagree that such an intelligence has anything to do with the Judeo/Christian
Bible and what is contained therein. Or any other religion for that matter.

Just my opinion.

 

Oh I'm in complete agreement there. The Bible reads like fiction because it is.
