Originally posted by sonshipJay, no one else asks me as many questions about things I didn't say as you do.But at least we can dispense with the 'it's all so wondrous it MUST be designed!' arguments. I'll take that deal in a hot second.
Blanket statement don't you think ?
And tell me HOW are you diminished IF someone does say that something is wonderfully designed ? Is that some kind of personal affront to your ego that maybe something ...[text shortened]... t stop Galileo or Newton. Why should that stop you from years of enjoyable research ?

thats as vague as something vague smeared between two slices of vague and served with a side salad of vague, followed by grandma's homemade vague pie and cream......a universe where all things fall apart? what does this mean? who, what...huh? are you talking about thermodynamics? what is the 'perfect'? god? is it going to make everything perfect? is that even possible? im pretty sure its not going to be perfect for me.

In other words, your designer COULDN'T design us better than it did? So it is a limited designer? Not infinitely powerful as you thought?
everything being in a world without sin, to moving into a world where it
was filled with the result of sin. This life is a temp area, the next one is
one that will last forever, the imperfect will put on perfection. So yes in
this sin filled world we are in bodies that wear out and die, but our lives
were never designed to live in a sin universe forever.

Yes about the sin too, I believe that once we are through this, it will not be
interesting or worth while to even entertain thinking about. There are a lot
of things I use to dwell on that now are completely uninteresting to me, I do
not at all find it hard to believe that once we get though this no one will
want to repeat it.

Originally posted by wolfgang59Perhaps if I were to spend too much time on one wonderful thing. But that is not what I said. There will be MANY wonderful things. In fact there will be too many wonderful things to think on that sin would never occupy my mind.
Sounds like gluttony.
Isn't that a sin?
Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
