The Big Bang theory always irritates me. Not because it's completely unbelievable, but because the theory dictates that all the entire universe was once compressed into a very small space. Well, what was around that space? If the universe is expanding, what space is it filling? Like... okay, if you think of it in terms of a balloon, the balloon will expand and contract. But the space it's filling is the room you're in. Or the area outside. It can't expand if there's nothing to expand into. So what on earth is this space the universe is supposed to be expanding into?

I'm a huge lover of science (heavily into biology and geology). And I feel that science and religion can get along just great. Science can be/is used to answer questions about the physical world, like what makes a human being a human being. Where can humans live, based on what we're able to tolerate. Religion can/is used to answer philosophical questions like, "Why are we here? For what purpose was humanity created?" Stuff like that.

I don't believe in Organized Religion, I feel its just one more way to Propaganda. I believe that there is Life across the universe. But I don't think some being is looking over it all..
I've been to church but I think it all rather silly.
& if it turns out there really is a heaven & hell.. Oh well. I lived my life the way I wanted.

I believe in Reincarnation That the lifeforce or soul is recycled once you die. I much prefer this idea. ~ to well & then there was nothing..

ever heard of Dark Matter? smile scientists don't know much about it, only that it is like... Negetive versions of all the Matter and Energy in the Universe, and that it makes up apperrently like 90% of our Universe.

i like to see these Scientific discoveries as evidence of what various religious texts describe. smile it lines up, it realy does. it's all a matter of interpretation.

you have a problem with the Big Bang, i just think that the Big Bang is an unfinished explanation. what I havea problem with, is Infinite. but i swear my brother blew my mind when i told him that and he told me to walk in a Circle and tell him when it ends. ._.

I need to change my views as of late, I've put some thought into it. I believe that anyones entitled to have faith in what ever religion without persecution or stereotypes. But that would be in an ideal world. That doesn't happen, because though most stereotypes would be hypocritical and morally wrong, some have a basis of truth behind it. I also believe that through time the words of the prophets of old have been perverted and adulterated to fit our own needs. We use parts of the religion we find suitiable and descriminate against others who dont confer with the parts we have chosen. I think theres a higher being or beings, but I think we; Human beings, need to find better ways to worship said beings other than killing in the name of them, or damning others to hell who are trying to live life as they see fit in a just and unharming way. People should live life to enjoy it, not belittle and hurt others. I think thats what the idea of some of the greatest prophets were. Their books and scriptures should be used as guide lines too a point, not laws.

I been thinking on a new theory for life & the universe. I think the big bang theory is missing the bogger picture. Okay just hear me out in my craziness!

What If you apply the principle of numbers (that they go on infintily in both directions) to the Universe... That everything gos on infintly bigger & smaller. They say everything is made up of mostly Space. so what if we the earth are just part of an atom of something larger. the sun like a nucelus with protrons swirlling round it. Men in black kinda had the rigth idea (with the marbles) of what I'm attempting to get at. so maybe the universe as we know is just a coffee table in someone's home or part of Tree or person in a larger world. Even if this theory is wrong, I have Faith that's theres something else were not seeing.
Because I wholely believe that this universe isn't as big as it gets!!
We are just too tiny to comprehend the larger picture.

~on a side note does anyone believe in alien life or that it been to earth..? because i don't like most of the religious views on it at all..
