Absolutely, that was brilliant!!! HAhahahahahahahahhaha
The problem with fantasies is you can't really insist that everyone else believes in yours, the other problem with fantasies is that most believers of fantasies eventually get around to doing exactly that.

Indeed. Perfect answer, Katja. :grin:

My first field of study is apologetics and the rationale defense of the Christian faith :p So I do apologize for bringing that into the forum, old habits die hard I guess.


Then I really do suggest that you consign "apologetics" to the distant back burner, and start reading some genuine science instead.

Why study science?

Because it's the only method mankind has ever found for genuinely discovering truthful answers to everything in the world around us.

And ... it has been mind bogglingly successful at doing exactly that.

I recommend Alex Vilenkin's recent book as a brilliantly simple crystal clear starting point for non-scientists who want to understand how & why our universe probably formed without any God (Alex Vilenkin, Many Worlds in One, 2006 ... just buy a copy, here's a link http://www.amazon.co.uk/Many-Worlds-One ... skept01-21)
