    Religion and God is what happens when you don't accept metaphysical and epistemological axioms so you start making things up in orther to explain why this axioms, that you already know, are. On the contrary, as you cannot explain them by the same means (perception, reason and logic) you 'use' faith and dogma. You basically invent assumptions that cannot be tested, proved, falsified or have correspondence to what is and how we know it is, in orther to explain it all.

    Yes, he proved that christianity is false but he mainly showed that he is a liar. When he says that he can live without knowing, it's a lie. No human being can live without a clear opinion concerning the subject of God. Feynman, for example, had concluded that God did not existed. How I know that ? Because he did great evil to many girls, women and husbands. The only way to act like that is thinking there is no superior being. Each being who think there is a superior being will be respectful about others. Theism and atheism are not revealed by words, but by the way we act towards everything in this world. Here, Feynman used a bad trick to lie to everybody, and people got screwed.

    Fynman's emphasis on doubt goes back to Descartes, who started off by rejecting everything he could doubt. Then he realized that he could not doubt he was doubting. He arrived at his famous statement: I think, therefore I am. Feynman needs to question whether or not his understanding of religion is adequate. Hint: It is not.

      Excerpt from Wikipedia "There are an estimated 10,000 distinct religions worldwide though nearly all of them have regionally based relatively small followings." Such evidence would tend to suggest that religion for the most part is due to the condition of being human, plus there are no other creatures on this planet that partake in any religious practise although some do get used for religious sacrificial purposes. A more important question to ponder would be why people need the next person to be religious like them and also why if the believed in religion is not the same that the state of play can result in very serious consequences in certain circumstances. Here is another question, imagine being born in to an empty house where you never read anything nor speak with anyone. When you reach adulthood would you be religious and if so which one would be chosen?

    Pauli was one of the most scathing and brilliant critics of errors in physics. Yet, Pauli,along with C.G. Jung studied Jung's paranormal theory of 'Synchronicity' and possible connections to quantum mechanics. Pauli was very,very brilliant and hard working. Why would he waste his valuable time studying a paranormal theory unless he thought that it might be true? Feynman valued Pauli's criticisms of his theories. Synchronicity is often connected with a supreme intelligence or God.

    Monotheism is the instigator of ignorance, oppression, and violence. Monotheism has been a "totalizing discourse", often co-opting all aspects of a social belief system, resulting in the exclusion of "others". Monotheism is less pluralistic , because monotheism stipulates that people pigeonhole their beliefs into one tenet. "Monotheism is irreconcilable with the existence in our nature of the instincts of benevolence" because it compels followers to devote themselves to a single Creator. The logic of monotheism yields little basis for tolerating other religions". Monotheism anesthetize the sense of wonder as if one were committed to a single line of thought by a cosmic legal contract".

    Interesting thoughts...but some people still think that faith and religion must accommodate in science worldview and think that a person who believes is a person who doesn't doubt. If we look to history of science we'll find a lot of great scientists who believe and doubt simultaneously and, I believe, because of that pursued the "truth" and made a lot of contributions to science and society.

To što on i mnogi drugi uživaju riješavati ne riješive zagonetke ne znači da nema onih koji mrze ili nisu sposobni riješavati zagonetke. Ali najvažnije je da če uvijek biti onih koji če njima ponuditi neko instant riješenje. Kao promjenu spola u trans gender debil. A još i važnije od najvažnijeg je da su mase jako podložne hipnozi.

There is a verse in the Qur’an that says: (Indeed, in the creation of the heavens and the earth and the alternation of night and day are signs for those of understanding. Those who remember God while they are standing, sitting, and on their sides, and contemplate the creation of the heavens and the earth. Our Lord, You did not create this in vain.

      @@eidiazcas So the electron is really condensed energy made up from the electromagnetic field.... Now the negative charge around the electron is just the field being pulled in by the electron ... And for the nucleus of the Adam the same thing with positive charge..... And the same thing with the neutral charge inside the nucleus.... Now whenever negative charge meets negative charge the field around the electron is the same density as the other field around the other electron (and of course I'm talking about the charge around the electron or the energy around the electron)so ... Because the negative charge around the electrons are the same density they bounce off one another.... And whenever positive charge meets negative charge they are different densities so they pull into one another.... But positive charge and neutral charge are around the same density so they pull into one another.... And positive charge is more condensed so it condenses the neutral charge inside of it.... Then whenever the electron comes along with its negative charge then the energy that's already condensed inside the positive and neutral fields around the nucleus becomes even more condensed inside the electron and that energy that is condensed inside the electron made up of the neutral and positive charges....... Pulls on the neutral and positive charges more because it is more condensed and they're around the same condensity... So whenever the election leaves the electron does not have a strong enough pull to pull on the positive and neutral charge that it made more condensed inside of it so the electron moves away from the nucleus and then the nucleus pulls out the energy that was in the electron and that creates a photon my name is dylan stone...... If energy in a particle acts like a ghost then you can compact other energy inside of energy.... Which would probably be how you got decay.... Basically what would happen the center energy in the particle would push out other bits of energy and they would become different condensities in other parts of the particle....😂 And obviously the bits of the energy being pushed out of the center of the particle would already be part of the particle..... It would just become packed in other energy on the edge of the particle.
