I find it hard that a book written for man by man is base enough to declare God real. I believe there is some higher power, but the God portrayed in the bible I find myself doubting and yet believing at the same time. What are your opinions.

this is how I am most of the time, my Gemini personality is often split in two, I wish my two halves would come together more often and have some peace of mind. Does anyone else ever feel this way ? I am sane, no mental; illness.

i mean, if a plan came along, to make your life significantly better, would you be able to suspend your cynicism and suspicion and doubt and disbelief long enough to check it out properly? or would you be unable to suspend your etc long enough to check it out? i mean, do you think you are capable of opening up to a plan wide enough to check it out, or do you think that you are too far gone to hope in that degree?

would you get into a deep thought about space and time? Or would you think about loves past and loves that are current? Or would you think about physics and inventions? What would you think about?

Many people would believe that aliens would have to exist if space was infinite (it seems the logical choice). But if you include time into the equation, it becomes a less plausible theory.

Time is also infinite as long as it can be subjected onto something - which it always can - Could be anything from the length of a thought to an atom

As an example: If time is infinite, an alien race could have had infinite time to develop, infinite time to live and infinite time to be destroyed before we even came to exist.

Though this does, by no means, negate the existence of extra terrestrial existence. What it means for me is that the chances are 50% (half to time and half to space)
- this obviously excludes any religious intervention -

did the chicken or the egg come first?

--

I personally believe the chicken did, because when the world was created, all live animals must have been put on the earth first, or at least the animal (in this case, the chicken) evolved before the egg came along.
