Atheist Confusion?
174 Answers
Its about time the AB atheists had a big fat believer to sink their teeth into, and tear to shreds, all red in tooth and claw.
Like fox hunting, it is an acceptable blood sport :-)
So, Richard Dawkins has stated that the universe is simply blind indifference, (paraphrased), that we simply dance to the demands of our DNA.
Yet he has said that science has put men on the moon, yet evil religion flies planes into towers.
Do you see the inconsistency?
This raises questions about morality, and maybe, just maybe, we could discuss it without spilling too much blood, burning too many martyrs, or sending hate mail?
(But just in case I shall be wearing full body armour and a crash helmet :-)

Then investigate the mind of God.
What are we discovering in science?
E8 Crystal lattice, is must the tip of the iceberg, consciousness is a mystery, reality depends on it, a mind to make reality real.
It goes on and on and never ever contradicts what the Bible says, '' In the beginning God created .........''

In other words, reality depends on a conscious observer.
This is easily demonstrated with the double slit experiment where the simple act of observation effects the outcome.
Taking this many many steps further and it is theorised that the whole of our reality is also dependent on such a conscious observer. But who or what could that be?
Sean Carroll, physicist and mathematician has theorised that the ultimate origin is a void permeated with infinite non description fields, each with the potential to collapse into a sub atomic particle. But how? By observation?
A weakness in his theory is the void, a multi dimensional, ''space,'' but any kind of space or void with dimensions holds the potential to contain something within it, and so this is not nothing. But it is a work in progress.
The fact of the importance of observation remains, combined with the mystery of consciousness, which we experience from our brain, but does not exist in any part of the brain that can be identified.
Other quantum field theorists have slightly differing approaches, but they now know they are dealing with the non physical.
I'll leave it there for now.
