Is being gay a sin according to your religion?

[Ben Dhyan]

Ok are you familiar with the second law of thermodynamics?

Refresh my memory?

 

[Ben Dhyan]

Why do you think that?

That is my understanding from studying the scripture...

 

[Taylor Seraphim]

Refresh my memory?

The Second Law of Thermodynamics states that the state of entropy of the entire universe, as an isolated system, will always increase over time. The second law also states that the changes in the entropy in the universe can never be negative.

Why is it rather than the literal view?

That's what I mean....the universe is not a closed loop system....it is infinite and eternal....

According to physics the universe is a closed system because there are no influence from outside the universe.

Why is it rather than the literal view?

The literal view would be absurd....nuf said...

Therefore you pick and choose what is ridiculous and what is not correct?

 

[Taylor Seraphim]

There is no outside the universe....

Precisely.

Therefore the universe is an isolated system.

 

[Ben Dhyan]

Therefore you pick and choose what is ridiculous and what is not correct?

No...I have done my homework...

 

[Ben Dhyan]

Precisely.

Therefore the universe is an isolated system.

Isolated implies duality...isolated from what?

 

[Taylor Seraphim]

No...I have done my homework...

Please elaborate?

 

[Taylor Seraphim]

Isolated implies duality...isolated from what?

Incorrect.

Isolated: to be alone or apart from others.

 

[Ben Dhyan]

Please elaborate?

I have studied religion over and esoterica over many decades...there is one divine plan and it plays out the same everywhere in principle...

 

[Ben Dhyan]

Incorrect.

Isolated: to be alone or apart from others.

Precisely....there is no apart or alone in the non-dual universe...

 

[Taylor Seraphim]

So you choose that interpretation because it fits your views?

 

[Taylor Seraphim]

Precisely....there is no apart or alone in the non-dual universe...

Alone: having no one else present; on one's own.

 

[Ben Dhyan]

So you choose that interpretation because it fits your views?

No....because of understanding....

 

[Taylor Seraphim]

Precisely....there is no apart or alone in the non-dual universe...

Alone: having no one else present; on one's own.

This is a way of saying the universe is all that exist and is an isolated system.
