Scientific explanation of God - would be nice.
until we scientifically know what God consists of [or not], the theory that this force/entity has some bearing on evolution in its origins or/and its progression in a darwinian manner [or not].. then the theory - like Darwin's THEORY should not be discounted - no need
"we believe this theory to be valid - this theory of god" - surely is a scientific faith ..
I say the intelligent stand point is that until we know the finer points of inner space we cannot disprove the existance of the entity known as God / allah /jah / budha etc.. just as we cannot disprove Darwin's theory of evolution.
so one can believe what one likes - one or the other or as in my case - both and leave it at that
for what it is worth I have a theory that the force for creation is in antagonistic harmony with the force for [or probability of] destruction of life [known as d'evil]. These conflicting / opposing possibilities are in antagonism [ life will continue on this planet or it will end - as must have happened on countless planets.. with the same possibilities in conflict with each other].
If Darwin was right and mutations drive evolution: they [mutations] are driven by chance. This probability starts at sub atomic level - - and would have done at the dawn of the universe... therein lie the influence[s]yet to be understand by science and there I believe we might find what we talk of as divine influence..
Most religions are based around the faith that some sort of prayer can influence destiny...perhaps we can plug into this level.
so two unknowns for science to prize open to solve it all : 1/ inner wokings of the mind ...esp - and 2/ sub atomic probability.
the understanding of the first might explain how/if the minds of the most highly evolved of life forms when combined / focused can influence [divine intervention] what I see as the lynch pin Of life itself - the second that needs to be understood : probability at sub atomic level.
My bet is that there is no such thing as randomness or chance, when you get down to it - ultimately everything has a cause. I believe as science nears its goal of total knowledge on a minute level it will actually [as I've suggested] discover [what] God [is].
I think "in my infinite wisdom" [geddit] what we call divine will be seen to be part of a [scientifically understood] process of life/death. [I know its pompous and unresearched but there it is - a theory]
Perhaps by understanding it we will lose [the need for]faith and therefore dispel the mythology and it won't work any more - hence the teaching of the importance of faith to move mountains is valid from a scientific point-of view!! Jesus Christ .. I mean wo! heavy maan
So given that we have so many unknowns - why not stop arguing and try to figure it out. It's like 2 kids arguing over whether they think its a stick or a cricket bat over the brook - energy better spent figuring out a way over the brook. I'll make the tea.
we probaby never will - it is beyond us - so we will have to settle for faith - scientifically proven to work - somehow!
... and here's some flotsum from the eddit...
the story in bible of genesis "geddit!" is actually quite a good portrayal of evolution in terms of storytelling as it was when written - i.e. not literal [though now it's litera..ture - it sadly has been taken so ..]
by taking it literally they give atheists a rod to beat them with - ..
- apparently 'intelligent design' was "evolved" no "created" to counter this rod - by by selling creationism [literal 7 day story!!] as scientific ...with a super- natural element ..[and a related legal wriggle out]...
this tends to tar any rational argument about divine involvement in creation with the same brush to a degree - not helpfull
all this hardening of positions building up ramparts - can't back down etc silly. ... wars - religious especially .. etc. etc
-----
teach it thus too - they are options theories. Don't ram anything down any throats let the data mature and see what ... evolves..
[some religions ram it down the throat [bible literal] so they spit it out hard to decide 4 selves - but still have a gagging reflex when they do try 2 swallow 4 selves - ruined free choice - ! basic human ..right !!]
no doubt with hindsight we will find that we had part of the picture

SCC
Today, I have been mainly a journalist for Eureka Online Innovations Magazine…shh. As such, I gained exclusive access to MOD Thorney Island to witness a trial of the SSC [steam car challenge] aiming to set the land speed record for a steam powered CAR!!
The driver was Sir Malcolm Campbell's grandson - Donald Wales. He really WASN'T [or wasn’t] going to reveal what medical procedure he’d had recently. I interjected with rather journalistic [getting right into character I thought] tenacity when, in reply to requests from the Daily Mail man for him to smile more for the camera, he declared that he was dosed on pain killers. Not even the T/PR girl knew - but luckily the relatively green project manager forgot to pack the spare
thermocouples [bi-metallic temperature sensors]. As a consequence I awoke from my nap to miss the briefing [typical] informing the journalists that they had a wasted trip from London.
I, however, had not. I had to go into Emsworth anyway to deliver some books. I have also firmed up a vision for the future of [not steam turbines so much as] EXTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINES. Steam engines run on renewable fuel and burn it in the way that nature intended - at atmospheric pressure. [cars produce noxious gasses due to pressurised combustion] BUT steam engines are heavy [fuel and water] and inefficient. Use them statically and you have a different story. Motion in reciprocating engines [steam, petrol and diesel] is all about releasing gas pressure. In external combustion, the FUEL ITSELF is not pressurised . Store gas pressure - in a cylinder - air compressor ... Drive a car vastly lighter less expensive / complex / dangerous [no explosive fuel or explosions].. Bish basche bosche and that’s it and all about d'it. Compress the air using whatever you want - steam engine, solar electric, you name it. Currently of course - air is free ! Even pressurised air at filling stations. Hello. Air cars are coming soon from a formula 1 engineer. Search youtube for air car. http://www.mdi.lu/english/ I told the P.R. girl - she handed me the sandwich which I'd asked her to make.
The project manager admitted to me that developing a turbine powered car had little potential to knock-on to the street. It may raise awareness and improve funding projects that might, however.
Had some fun with the army - there was a sergeant-major type who had obviously been assigned to keep us inline. He latched on to me as a
trouble-maker in no time. Perhaps I stood out as I was actually taking an interest. I said, quite simply, that he was mistaken [when he said he thought that I may have got some MOD building in a photographic shot of the car]. He had not approached Sky or BBC who were shooting directly at the building. I teased him later telling him to stand easy and that he was almost my bitch as my taxes paid his wages.
I enjoyed working with the s.c.c. team - fixing the catering tent after it blew over an urn of steaming water onto the pregnant [thank god I was right - and she wasn't just fat] PR girl - not a good day for the steam team from Lymington.

Thanks Winston
Woman in the book shop tells me the BNP are using Winston Churchill as a figurehead.. "well in those days it was England for the English." she said "so you are saying that it WAS ok then.. " I said.. she wasn't sure. "People said he was a warmonger" she said - people say I am - "but they choose not to see the provocation" [Hitler] Clem Attlee opened England up to the commonwealth apparently - quietly, without much fuss, legislation went through. What a great "Thank you" to Winston voting him in was!
Some girls do
some girls don't.. treat men like meat. If you don't come up to scratch u r scum.
If you do.. you win the chance to forego all intellect and self determination and serve a magazine-driven bimbo.

Trade wins ?
It is sexy to be arty - wacky - the Stones got laid - the suits didn't like it - they bought the Stones. The artist on the corner - same - the suited traders bought him for Athena..The kings road free spirit - total clothing rights charity shops gone mad - go down there now - elitist.. Anything that is desirable then gets a price and the traders move in. That includes football, sex, surfing, food.. rural English villages - they are full of suits in Porsches now .. What do we do ? legislate ?.. Traders also seem to have a radar against those who really ARE creative - its like they mimic the species that is competing withem and snuff out their behaviour replacing it with their own. Without creativity we are sunk. What do we trade as humans ? Products. If the human stock becomes only traders - what will they trade?
