Please try to disprove anything I believe.

The universe.

Universe: all existing energy and space considered as a whole; the cosmos.
My understanding is thus and therefore I have difficulty replying to your challenge

The Universe: totality of existence, both known and unknown to us

This is divided into:
1. Objective Universe (OU): Things are as they "are." Time, space, matter, energy, etc.
2. Subjective Universe (SU): Our unique personal perspective and experience of the OU. What we interpret and perceive it as.

Anything that is not a part of nature.
Are you able to define this without using a negative?

I have seen no such universe as all of these occur in our brains in the true universe.
In the 'exclusive' objective universe, a house is simply a geometrically‑coordinated, gravitationally‑braced and weatherproof arrangement of certain kinds of molecules. As various individuals design, decorate, occupy, or view the house, however, it is imbued with characteristics assigned to it by them. It now exists in their several subjective universes, and it may continue to exist there even after the 'objective' house has been demolished.

You have now experienced the idea behind both Objective and Subjective Universes

I do not believe there is evidence for a personal god.

I do not believe that faith is a reliable means of gaining information or insight.

I believe the universe is made solely of energy.

I believe the universe is eternal.

I believe that human morality is innate in most human beings.

Is that a good starting point?
no material substance?.....no matter?
so much for Albert...

eternal universe?......and the expansion continues at increasing speed....and will dissipate
and Man has killed his brother.....from the beginning....

see Genesis

We would have, at most, some differences of opinion. But there is nothing there I would see as falsifiable.

The hell are you talking about Chak? How is matter eternal?
Thanks for vid
There are three things that are eternal: God, the Jiva, and matter (Chit, Achit, Ishvara). God did not create the Jivas, and he also did not "create matter" (like how the Christian God created everything using clay or dust or whatever). The universe is eternal, since this is where the Jivas were residing. Of course, creating and designing the universe are two different things, in my opinion.

What makes you think it was created a couple of billion years ago? The Hindu religion believes in cyclical time...rebirth and death of the universe and so on.

I mean our Day of Brahma was 14.3 billion years ago. So your saying our universe and others were always there like jivas?
