Well I am Christian so I beleave in the God of the Bible. Anyway that is bestides the point.

Well my view of everything is this. The big bang was God speaking the world into beaning. My view of God is not so much as a all powerfull beaning but more of a Math Code that is alive and that is the all powerfull beaning. Who know's God might be the missing equation in the Theroy of Everything.
Sorry if my idea is not so strong LOL. I am new to the firld of Physics and am reading Hyperspace which is one of my favorit books.
By the way how may of you have seen the movie [pi] that is on of my favorit moves.

Thanks for your time.

Look up Spinoza and his philosophy of the "god" of Einstein and I think Michio Kaku as well.

Pi? Yeah... just remember to avoid power drills. :wink:

Say, I thought the religion forum had been closed down to new thread creation?

I had looked to see if any trace of mentor moving it could be seen, but didn't find anything, which is what peaked my curiosity.
 
I will bite, seriously, i will, lol



Ok, if you propose to say that GOD is the movable that was unmoved, and thus the cause of the explosion, then how do you explain GOD? Where did GOD come from? What is the age of GOD? Does GOD have an age? Does GOD have a nature?
 
Where did God come from?

God is what is

He is the beginning

If you ask where God comes from then you obviously don't have an understanding of creation from any standpoint. Let's take the Big Bang Theory, where did the single atom come from? We don't know, but if we did where did that thing come from? At some point there has to be a beginning, and if one would know what one was talking about in a religious forum then the beginning would be obvious, the beginning is GOD.

Why would there have to be a beginning? More to the point, why would we have to assume it is god? We can conceptualize infinity as existing when speaking of god, so why not the universe? ``Pluralitas non est ponenda sine neccesitate'' and all that.
