MORE PROOF THAT, DESPITE THE UTTER, COMPLETE AND TOTAL FAITH MOST CONTEMPORARY ATHEISTS PUT IN IT, SCIENCE IS NOT CURRENTLY ABLE TO EXPLAIN THE OBSERVABLE UNIVERSE:
Astronomers have reportedly discovered the largest known structure in the universe – a formation so massive it would take a vehicle that was moving at light speed roughly four billion light years to cross it, the Royal Astronomical Society (RAS) announced on Thursday.
The structure is a large quasar group (LQG), or a formation that contains the nuclei of galaxies from the earliest days of the universe’s existence. These quasar groups, which undergo astronomically brief (10 to 100 million years long) periods of extreme brightness that make them eminently visible, are known to be 200 Megaparsecs (Mpc) or more across. In comparison, the distance between Andromeda and the Milky Way is only 0.75 Mpc, the researchers said.
“Based on the Cosmological Principle and the modern theory of cosmology, calculations suggest that astrophysicists should not be able to find a structure larger than 370 Mpc,” the society explained. However, the LQG discovered by University of Central Lancashire (UCLan) astronomer Dr. Roger Clowes and his colleagues “is so significant in size it also challenges the Cosmological Principle: the assumption that the universe, when viewed at a sufficiently large scale, looks the same no matter where you are observing it from.”MAN'S REACH WILL ALWAYS EXCEED HIS GRASP.
MANY UN-BELIEVERS IN G-D BELIEVE IN SCIENCE - AS IF IT EXPLAINED EVERYTHING. IT DOESN'T, AND IT NEVER HAS.
AS OUR REACH HAS EXPANDED, WE HAVE OBSERVED MORE AND MORE THINGS THAT COMPLETELY DISPROVE MANY SCIENTIFIC THEORIES THAT WERE ACCEPTED AS IF THEY WERE FACTS.
IN RESPONSE, SCIENCE HAS COME UP WITH EVER MORE ELABORATE AND COMPLEX THEORIES.
TO ME, G-D SIMPLY PASSES OCCAM'S TEST: G-D IS THE SIMPLEST AND MOST ELEGANT ANSWER TO THE DEEPEST COSMOLOGICAL QUESTIONS.
PERHAPS THIS IS WHY PHYSICISTS SEARCHING FOR THE HIGGS-BOSON PARTICLE CALL IT "THE G-D PARTICLE".
IN MY OPINION, G-D WITHDREW, OR "SHRANK" IN A WAY IF YOU WILL, TO MAKE ROOM FOR AND CREATE OUR DIMENSIONS, AND HE AND HIS LAWS ARE THE SCAFFOLDING AROUND WHICH ALL LIFE - ALL MATTER AND EVERYTHING SPIRITUAL - IS CONSTRUCTED.
I THINK THE HIGGS-BOSON RESEARCH ON THE SMALL SCALE AND TELESCOPIC RESEARCH ON THE LARGE SCALE MIGHT VERY WELL ONE DAY CONFIRM THIS --- IOW: THE PHYSICAL EXISTENCE OF THE UNIVERSE MAY SOON CONFIRM THE METAPHYSICAL EXISTENCE OF G-D.
ETHICAL PROOF THAT A METAPHYSICAL G-D EXISTS CAN BE FOUND HERE.

While mysteries abound, the inability of our minds and knowledge to explain the mysteries only proves the inability of our minds and knowledge to explain the mysteries.

Entertaining to think about, but ultimately fruitless.
hi bruce.
please think about what your saying.
i think you are projecting.
you are actually describing your inability to grasp G-d, and not science's in ability to simply grasp merely observable physical nature.
and please look at the video at the link.
thanks for your comment and happy new year!
NOTE: G-d also withdrew a little to create room for our moral dimension.
our ability to do good or evil - to choose life and light and the ways of life and Natural Law or choose the ways of darkness and death and denial - this ability is only possible because G-d uniquely enabled to us and only us among all creation.
water traveling downhill doesn't choose.
only we can choose.
G-d Bless You bruce.
That video is a perfect example of begging the question. Yes, it is true that for absolute morality to exist, there must be a single, final, unchanging arbiter of good and evil. However, it is humorous that a man arguing that, in a video presumably aimed at Christians, and possibly Jews, would use slavery as one of his major examples of what should always be considered evil. Perhaps he is unfamiliar with Leviticus 25:44-46.
FACTS:
bible believers ended slavery.
slavery existed before abraham an was a fact of life.
the bible spoke to the people at the time.
and it speaks to us now.
slaves were to be treated as well as free people - according to the bible.
Leviticuis 25:44-46:
However, you may purchase male or female slaves from among the foreigners who live among you. You may also purchase the children of such resident foreigners, including those who have been born in your land. You may treat them as your property, passing them on to your children as a permanent inheritance. You may treat your slaves like this, but the people of Israel, your relatives, must never be treated this way.
How is treating slaves as property and passing them on to your children treating them like free people?It's even spelled out that this is something that the people of Israel must never do to each other.
Did you actually watch the video? The argument against evolution as an ultimate source of morality is "Because any supposed morality that is evolving can change." The video graphic even shows that slavery was accepted at many times in human history but was never morally acceptable. "If you can't make that distinction between accepted and acceptable, then you can't criticize slavery." If the Bible and the Jewish law "spoke to the people at the time" and permitted slavery, but the standard is that it is now considered evil, this destroys the Bible and the god of the Bible as an ultimate, unchanging source of morality by the very logic in that video.
you completely misinterpret the poor translation of the Bible.
you are an asshole too boot.
despite the FACT of their slavehood, we are to treat them as if they were free people because we were slaves and strangers in a strange land.
slavery was wiped out by judeo-christians and not atheists or socialists or muslims or hindus or ANYONE else and it is precisely because of the tenets of the Bible - that every soul is from G-d REGARDLESS of the person's station in life.
for JEWS this extends to non-Jews - as Judaism is the only truly UNIVERSALIST religion because unlike Chistianity Jews believe gentiles go to heaven without needing to keep ALL the commandments jews must keep. (just the noachic ones which are pretty basic and easy for moral people to keep.) Christians believe the only way to heaven is thru belief in jesus as christ and son of G-d.
