Physics proved the truths of Eastern religions three decades ago (The Tao of Physics), so why not Christianity, too? ;)

Physicists today, he says, are not supposed to believe in God.

Canard and no basis in the real world.

Walking on water is accomplished through a particle beam and dematerialization through the multiple universe model implied by quantum theory.

Just like on Star Trek! It must be true!

The Church of the Cosmological Singularity???
Sounds like something out of a Heinlein novel.
Okay, I'm copyrighting and trademarking that!

BZZZTTT! Wrong! Who came up with this ignorant statement? Most of the great thinkers of the past were quite devout. Although I never became or will become a great physicist, I am still a Christian and faithful believer. One can't look deeply into the structure of the cosmos and the nature of reality and not be moved at a spiritual level. No, I don't believe in the Genesis story; but to me, that is a matter or getting beyond Sunday School Lessons and into a mature Christian relationship with God.

I read it and I often used it to prove God in debates.

Do you deny nature's harmonic simultaneous 4-day Time Cube?

Do you?

Money is pyramiding. Religion is pyramiding. Education is pyramiding. The environment is pyramiding. The pyramid of progress has destroyed the marbles circle, it's destroyed the family circle.

A mature relationship with God is rooted in reading His word, and accepting it as truth.

If you don’t believe Genesis, then you don’t believe God.

If you don’t believe Him, you don’t have a deep mature Christian relationship.

I am having my gall bladder removed this Friday. A couple weeks ago, as the surgeon explained to me the purpose of the liver, gall bladder, pancreas, etc., while using a chart, I sat amazed at the machinery of the human body. I could not help but think that this could not have been an accident and once again my belief in God was reaffirmed.

GOD by definition is all powerful. Think about that and what it means. Our little human intellects cannot even scratch the surface of God’s almighty power.God can do anything but contradict Himself.

If you don’t believe Genesis, then you don’t believe God.

Ah, the “my way or the highway” approach to faith and religious belief. A shame, really, that some are unable to recognize truth from allegory.

Ok, let me get this straight. I'm confused, are you insinuating you don't take God's word literally, or a Sunday School teacher's lesson about Genesis?

I believe to have a mature relationship with God childlike faith is a character trait he has requested?
