Go to God as The Universe as an Organism

- Go to THE BIG BANG WAS THE THEORY OF A CATHOLIC PRIEST -- NOT AN ATHEIST
Some more
ideas on this subject. There seems to be three categories of people referred to here: Scientists, Atheists and Catholic Priests. These three are by no means mutually exclusive. It is not only possible, but highly probable that you will find an individual belonging to two or all three categories. To hold a position in a tradition doesn't by necessity mean that a person actually believes exactly what they preach. Someone can easily have a more openminded approach to life and a broader view than their superiors approve of too. I've seen this to be true too often to ignore the possibility. Another person who started out as a devout Catholic with strong scientific leanings that come to mind is Teilhard de Chardin (may be spelt wrong since I don't have any book to refer to right now). He had some really thought provoking ideas about a great many subjects.

you write:
"Why did scientists so readily adopt the Big Bang from a catholic priest and try to present it as truth?" Soul Builder: can you provide the link to the article, or some kind of reference to it? If not, then your statement here loses credibility.

Re:
Kundalini is snake power NOT soul power! It resides at the base of the spine..... a usual site possessed by the dark side....actually it is the empty spaces of intestine, prostate and womb. It is taken up by a series of meditations to unite with Shiva (soul) and then comes back down. The process links dark side with soul , as if soul is asleep and dark side(or Shakti) is awake. Sorry, but Soul powers are all of the harmonious/knowledge-related type...not anything to give mystical power, mind-reading or inflict pain. The soul resides in the brain and any focus or meditation away from there is not for the benefit of the soul. The idea of chakras belong to kundalini yoga. The soul lives in only one place, the head! This is where the meditation ought to be focused! Check the chinese Taoist philosophy for the location of Soul and animal spirit etc! Soul needs no help but gives help that is honest but not power-based. Energy giving is for the dark side ...to calm it or fuel it. Soul energy is drawn directly from itself or God. No females can imitate that energy or give that energy! Nice talking to you!

One of the problems with pigeonholing people and ideas. We all do that to some degree, but some take it to extremes and these usually don't notice that they themselves are doing so.
Sorry Xeno, and please tell me if you object to my roundabout way but:
Soul_builder, since I'm still blocked on your blog I'm taking the opportunity, which I hope Xeno will not mind, to ask you something: Why do you always associate Kundalini with your "dark side". It is an evolutionary energy latent in all people that has psychophysical mind transforming effects that usually leads people to become more productive in helping others than in controlling others for personal gain when awakened and channeled properly, from my experience.

I am that writer that you quote! I know of Le Maitre! Which is why I included the link that said that Big Bang is creationism by science! Sorry you did not delve into the links about black holes, red shifts, and the other scientific models which explain the existence of the universe...but which receive no funding! Why did scientists so readily adopt the Big Bang from a catholic priest and try to present it as truth? Could it be that church and state has historically been allied in control over the human population! I have the article that says that too!

Xeno-x - the "with us or agin us" God fan club rides again
As a person of some maturity, do you ever remember in recent history misinformation being so readily dispensed and in turn so willingly absorbed by members of one religious group? These people seem to make it up as they go, ignore anything that doesn't jive with their fabrications, disparage all who would object and convince themselves that they are somehow of superior morals and intellect to everyone else. Sadly, the vast majority of these people can barely distinguish right from wrong.
