The philosopher Bavick suggests that," The necessity of the Laws of Nature are a logical necessity." In short, the specific scientific rules which govern our universe are shaped in such a way that these rules must be logically necessary.

If the premise is suggested that our only source of information about scientific law are derived from our repeated experiences, i.e. seeing the sun rise every morning, then...

How do our experiences with Time affect our ability to say whether or not Science is a logical necessity?

Human habits are so bizarre.

I just wanted to ask everyone...
WHEN??
When...will you one day start seeing the sunrise as a common place thing and no longer feel the Wonder of it?

When?
Will you one day reach the point where you look at the first light of the day and see it as Nothing More than a way of marking time?

When?
Will you one day not even see the beauty that is the milky way and just see it as dots in the sky, instead of billions of stars, planets, and a whole array of multiple galaxies?


Today? Tomorrow? Or maybe your there already?

"If I go I would suffer too much, I can't face it."

I used to think this way also but Ive analized that this is a very *selfish* decision. Suppose you father dies. Your mother and brothers would like you to be there. When something like this happen you've got to take it like a man or a "woman" and face it.

Your thoughts?

The affirmation is " I AM ALL POSITIVE "

What would it create for me?
What would happen in my life?

Metaphysically that is.....

What about the Human Art ? What about the Satanic Art ? or Do you think Quran is promoting subtly the Advaita Philosophy that Everything is Verily Divine only and there is nothing second or secondary, and Everything is Allah / God only.

What do you have to say ?

Also please see the Q. link also if you need lil bit more clarification on this Q.

http://www.islamawareness.net
There was a young man who went overseas to study for quite a long time. When he returned, he asked his parents to find him a religious scholar or any expert who could answer his Three Questions.

Finally, his parents were able to find a Muslim scholar.

"Who are you? Can you answer my questions?," asked the young man

"I am one of Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala)'s slaves and Insha'Allah (God willing), I will be able to answer your questions," replied the Scholar.

"Are you sure? A lot of Professors and experts were not able to answer my questions," replied the young boy

"I will try my best, with the help of Allah (Subhanahu wa Ta'ala)"

"I have 3 questions," began the boy

1. Does God exist? If so, show me His shape.

2. What is takdir (fate)?

If shaitan (Devil) was created from the fire, why at the end he will be thrown to hell that is also created from fire. It certainly will not hurt him at all, since Shaitan (Devil) and the hell were created from fire. Did God not think of it this far?

Suddenly, the Scholar slapped the young man's face very hard!

The young man, who was shocked and hurt by the slap became confused, "Why do are you angry at me?" he asked

"I am not angry," answered the scholar, "The slap is my answer to your three questions."

"I really don't understand," the young man said. He was really confused.

The scholar began to explain, "How did you feel after I slapped you?," he asked

"Of course, I felt the pain. it hurt," he replied

"So do you believe that pain exists?" the scholar asked

"Yes."

"Now Show me the shape of the pain!" said the wise Scholar

"I cannot," the young man replied

"That is my first answer. All of us feel God's existence without being able to see His shape... Last night, did you dream that you will be slapped by me?," the ascholar replied

"No"

"Did you ever think that you will get a slap from me, today?," the scholar continued

"No."

"That is takdir (fate)........" The scholar continued, "My hand that I used to slap you, what is it created from?"

"It is created from flesh," replied the young man

"How about your face, what is it created from?"

"Flesh, as well" replied the young man

"How did you feel after I slapped you?"

"In pain."

"Even though Shaitan (satan) and Jahunnum (Hell-fire) were created from fire, if Allah wants, insha'Allah (God willing), the Hell-fire will become a very painful place for Shaitan (Devil)" ended the wise Scholar.

The wise Scholar had answered all three of the tough questions by one slap.

Be creative please.
Use your imagination, and don't ask things like 'what fire?'
This is for people who would like to be a little creative...

Space-time is a function of the universe and thus, for god to exist within time he/she/it was created with the universe and thus he/she/it is not the creator. If god does not exist within a temporal universe god cannot be said to exist, as existence requires temporality, for nothing exist outside of space-time.
