When I began taking science courses, I didn't expect that it would cause me to have some of the philisophical insights that I had and metaphysics is the acme, isn't it? Learning about science changed my spiritual beliefs so much, as a matter of fact, has probably become the biggest influence. <br><br>As I said before, I am a relativist. I think that there has to be something to be a point of reference for thought to exist. And I think that he wouldn't exist in nothingness, or be aware of his existence. That would be hell to me as we spoke of before, to lose my identity. <br><br>In the beginning was the Word and the Word was God. The 'Word' was the first point of reference provided for all of existence to relate to so that it could exist. The Word was God. So God is the only absolute but we relate to God by relativism. Without 'God' we don't exist.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6831646832101933997.post-47770531916831882392007-09-07T09:14:00.000-07:002007-09-07T09:14:00.000-07:00HiIv been too busy for blogging last two months, b...Hi<br>Iv been too busy for blogging last two months, but now i had sometime...your blog suprises me always, but wow, now here has happened so much, looks good...i'll be back. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6831646832101933997.post-23434478733421901872007-09-07T10:02:00.000-07:002007-09-07T10:02:00.000-07:00it's a half past sour. grrherhaha. just rangin by ...it's a half past sour. grrherhaha. just rangin by to say hi to the dante DOE. have a good weekend. dont hate me for not giving good comment on your thoughtful post.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6831646832101933997.post-20551862629140779512007-09-07T11:50:00.000-07:002007-09-07T11:50:00.000-07:00Very interesting notion of time, one that seems to...Very interesting notion of time, one that seems to include several competing thoughts about where it is.<br><br>We've always been taught that tricking the supernal is folly, and always bites us on the tail in the end.

Still, I wonder sometimes if balance represents a limitation of human understanding or perception. <br><br>I suspect that you're right, because my experience suggests the same. But sometimes, I do wonder.<br><br>As for time, I perceive of it as a pocket of sorts. Maybe Einstein's correct, and that every moment is eternal.
