[QUOTE="Forgalspop, post: 3626405, member: 46636"] I apologize if I came across a little snide in my remarks but your remarks came across to me as somewhat condescending. My whole point is, we as humans don’t know what we don’t know. All one has to do is look at all the discoveries in the last 1,000 or 200 or even the past 25 years. Much of physics is based on theories that have yet to be proven, including the “Big Bang Theory”. Physicists are convinced there is “Dark Matter’ and it is a very convincing theory, but yet it remains a theory, as it has yet to be isolated and much research is being conducted in that field. If this world survives another thousand years, we cannot imagine what discoveries lay ahead. It would probably over whelm our senses at this time. Here is a quote by Nikola Tesla: The day science begins to study non-physical phenomena; it will make more progress in one decade than in all the previous centuries of its existence." ― [B]Nikola Tesla[/B] My younger brother has a PHD in chemistry and a minor in physics from the University of Florida and we have discussed such matters many times. Get this, he is a devout Evangelical Christian and believes in prayer and miracles. His science background cannot adequately explain how that would work. I have a different belief system than he, but would never discount his belief system nor would I ever discount anyone’s belief system. I’m not wise enough and don’t have all the answers. I agree with you about your list of philosophers to read and have read many of them on your list, but not all, but have read some you did not list such as Seneca, Epictetus, Will Durant, Friedrich Nietzsche, etc. They all had their strong points and some questionable ideas. No one has a corner on the truth! Peace be with you! [/QUOTE]
