I did. There is nothing more about the before, nothing about what god was doing before he had the notion of creating something, nothing about how he got around the lack of time before he created time, and absolutely nothing about what the universe was made from. There was a great deal of twaddle about the after though, none of which is relevant to where the universe came from.
HalleluYah !!! Praise the Lord! Holy! Holy!
P.S. Don't forget to look for evidence of when God created the heavenly spirit creatures, like the angels.

Now it is time for you to read the Holy Bible for the rest of the story.

I think it's time for some new creationists, these are worn out or defective, possibly both.

P.S. Since you do not like reading the Holy Bible, try "Dante's Inferno" for a start.

Originally posted by RJHindsInterestingly Dante's Inferno has a hell that is icey cold. Indeed, Satan is stuck in a frozen lake! If thirteenth century hell was chilly, when did they install the central heating?

Originally posted by KeplerYou must have missed the part about the torment. But if that is what you want, then have at it and be prepared.

Originally posted by RJHindsI just find it interesting that hell has morphed from freezing cold to fire and was wondering when the transition occurred. And why it occurred.

Originally posted by KeplerI am saying that Dante's Inferno is a poem relating one man's idea of how Hell might be like, but if you go there you might not think it is as nice as Dante shows it to be. Since you don't like reading the Holy Bible perhaps you would enjoy a couple other poems by John Milton. They are called Paradise Lost and Paradise Regained.

Originally posted by RJHindsAnd they draw heavily on Dante's Divine Comedy, the first part of which is Inferno. Read all five works in school. If I must read theological stuff I prefer some of Newton's writings. Did you know he wrote more on theological matters than on mathematics, physics and chemistry put together? I don't think you'd like his stuff though.

Originally posted by KeplerNo. I did not know of Newton's theological writings. But I am satisfied with reading the Holy Bible.
