If every action we take has consequence, and if under free will, we may take any action, and if God allows free will, then He must be ready for any decision we make..allowing one universe for each action taken by each person.

Do you have any idea how much RAM that would require? :)

Real understanding of how gravity works could initiate a technology revolution as great as that from understanding how electricity works.

Whence came his material did you suppose?

I just read an excerpt from some of Richard Feynman's theses. I've got some background in math, but this stuff was indecipherable. And that was the "simplified" version!

Actually I have another question.

I God is omniscient then he knows everything that is going to happen even before it happens. If that is correct then he knows every decison we are going to make before we make it, so how can we have free will. Our lives must be pre- determined. Anything we decide to do, if he is all-knowing God already knew we were going to do it right?

I have no argument with Gods omnipotence. It is one of the reasons He must have all those alternate universes.

Knowing what we will do, does not necessarily mean He will move to change what we will do. He can only provide the avenue for our salvation. Right?

With Kathy & Connie, all I said was: "How'd you like to see Big Daddy?" I suspect that Lisa will be a bit more challenging.

He didn't give you the envelope. You still made your own decisions.

Still waiting for the nudes of Connie to surface. My life cannot end until they do.

I suspect the flying spaghetti monster is more attractive.

I've seen you joshing about Kathy & Connie before, can you provide a link with further details, or a private 1- or 2-line freepmail?

Cheers!

Than Lisa Randall?? Surely you jest!

She gives new meaning to the word hadron.

Cheers!

Not feeling so bored, lately, are we, snarks? :-)
