    How can others benefit from our actions? (tittle edited)

    We should understand the reason for love and kindness. We can then better decide what to do or not do. Consider the concept of loving your enemies. The ultimate attitude would be wanting them to live forever in peace and happiness -and to get better -because... just wow. We all mess up, but...

    Model of Reality

    I was looking for the most simple states possible -as complexity=reducibility -but a third "whatever" might be the driver for varied arrangement? I'd imagine "we" aren't even close to the deepest level -but we're already way beyond my understanding here. :p I don't even know how you can have an...

    What does "one" mean?

    Realize you are that.

    What does "one" mean?

    "I AM THAT AM" The more I study scripture, the more it indicates that God is literally the sum of all that exists. Whether one believes in God or not, it can be said that there is only one thing which exists overall -which would be true even if it could be infinitely subdivided. Or...

    Model of Reality

    Awesome stuff, people! This is like that time back when I was in high school and accidentally went into the wrong class with all the smart kids.

    Model of Reality

    Interesting! Really went off on a tangent there toward the end, huh? lol My brain does that all day. (The maybe off, maybe on reminded me of a sort of digital audio signal -pulses of only negative and positive, but at varying levels.)

    Awesome -thanks!

    Model of Reality

    As binary code represents the most simple possible set of logical states -which could then become more complex by number and arrangement -it seems logical that the basis of overall reality must be in some way similar -such as consisting of arrangements of only two basic interactive components...

    The Fallen Angel

    No -you are falsely accusing me of doing so. 2 Tim 14Of these things put them in remembrance, charging them before the Lord that they strive not about words to no profit, but to the subverting of the hearers. 15Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed...

    The Fallen Angel

    Right -which is why the disobedient son of God known as Satan will be laid before the kings of the Earth. As one can be a son by lineage and simultaneously not a son by thought and action, there is no reason for contention. I get your point -but I am not incorrect -it's just a technicality...

    The Fallen Angel

    They are technically sons of God (and are called so in the bible) because they were made by God -but are disobedient and in error -not acting and thinking as sons of God should -so, in that way, not sons of God. At one time, they did not do this -then they did. (perfect in all thy ways, until...

    The Fallen Angel

    Not actually sure what you mean, but while any being is in a sinful state -has shown they will choose error -their ability to affect everything is limited -though God uses their tendency toward error to eventually remove that tendency altogether. Names in the bible were changed at times to...

    Is there evidence that Humans and bananas share a common ancestor?

    Technically, all physical life became possible as the elements were formed. It is their ability to interact in specific ways which lends itself to their eventually becoming arranged as DNA, self-replication thereof, encoding, etc. All life is not likely even descended from one single strand of...

    The Bible says Jesus is God

    Through him by actually having him do the creating part. Yes. That was my point.

    The Bible says Jesus is God

    Nooooooo. It says exactly that. All things were made BY him and FOR him.

    The Bible says Jesus is God

    Literally that whole post. I'm going to assume you are not serious.

    The Bible says Jesus is God

    John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2The same was in the beginning with God. 3All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5And the light shineth in...

    The Bible says Jesus is God

    That is actually the Word speaking-which is literally why he is called the Word. He goes forth from the Father to do and to say. He was also "I AM" ("before Abraham was, I am")

    HOW is God "Eternal"?

    Well... overall reality isn't much moved by our perceptions.
