Granted, there are many questions to which we don't know the answers. But if we could have direct contact with God, say, and find out the real truth about these matters, do you think that everything mankind has ever asked has a definitive logical explanation? Of course, maybe you wouldn't agree with the assumption that God is omniscient, but please, for the purposes of the question, temporarily suspend your unbelief. Or, if you wish, just imagine another hypothetical situation whereby we could find ultimate truth, and know the answers to all the questions ever. Again, would there be a logical explanation beneath the facade?

There are two kinds of reality: Subjective and objective.

Who has the ultimate truth, besides God himself?

There are answers to all your questions in the Bible. Most people are to busy, lazy, uninterested....to search them out. Questions like why people die, what happens to them when they die, why are there so many problems in the world today, what is the ultimate end of men, is there any controlling being or beings influencing us, ...literally thousands of questions men would like the answers to, but for whatever reason don't look for them.. I found satisfactory answers for every single question I had along these lines by not turning away the Jehovah's Witnesses at the door, but by asking them to prove it to me from the Bible, any Bible. They did, now I know. Unfortuantely, this takes a little time and effort, and most people find it satisfactory, or at least easier, to just pay the priest, pastor, rabbi or whatever and let them do the thinking. Personally, I have always been like they say people from Missouri are.... Show me. So far, only the Witnesses have satisfied my curious mind with answers that make sense. I intend to continue to learn. The answers are nothing like people are lead to believe, they are much better.

Nobody has the ultimate truth. And no, there isn't a logical answer to every question man has asked. Some people are still asking if god can make a rock so heavy even he can't move it. The only answer to that is that god is mythical and the question has no meaning.

You are asking if there are ultimate answers and want me to assume that there is some omniscient being with all the answers. What is the point to the question with that kind of assumption?

There is free energy at the surface of the earth. There are millions of species of creatures recycling this energy all the time. Humans are just one of those species. Why do people assume that just because these human creatures have certain ideas that they are universal truths? We are meaningless in the grand scheme of things.

Ultimate yes
logical?
explanation?

how can this be. Those are words generated by a mind which is thinking in space time, 4 dimensions. Ultimate reality may go far beyond that into a realm where thinking does not bring you any further. Like being trapped in a 2D of a paper plane and not being able to see the dimension 3 to make space and 4 for time.....which - in a different paradigm of thinking BTW are all the same (space-time)

Logic is tied to your definition of what logic means. Ask yourself whether logic can exist without a brain thinking it.

For ultimate truth it is worth checking out some sages from India - like Papaji or Ramana
They may have accessed an ultimate truth - beyond concepts. That what can not be spoken of or thought not even experienced.

Nobody has the ultimate truth besides God obviously and there is always something you wouldnt be able to explain, even if you met God and asked him all about it. It is inherently a human qaulity to be inquistive and that quality is what makes us great and dumb at the same time.
The last question which I dont think anybody could explain to you, even if you found the ultimate truth would be the why is the first place was the whole thing was started which I dont think even God could explain to you.....who has the ultimate truth besides God...yourself

The short answer is, Yes.

Firstly, God does not exist. Secondly, there is a distinction between an explanation and a logical explanation. A logical explanation is understood. Some explanations are not understood.

A explanation does exist for everything. A specific explanation may or may not be understood today. That explanation may or may not be understood tomorrow. The existence of an explanation is not dependent on understanding. And God's nonexistence is not relevant.

Einstein certainly believed so as indicated in his well known comment, "I shall never believe that God plays dice with the world." He was questioning the probabilistic nature of quantum theory which pertains to events involving atoms and particles smaller than atoms, events such as collisions or the emission of radiation. In all these situations the theory is able to tell what will probably happen and not what will certainly happen. He was questioning the implication that the individual microscopic events are themselves indeterminate, unpredictable, random, not the use of mathematical probability.The ancient Greeks and Romans, on the other hand, would not object to the idea that the microscopic universe is essentially governed by chance - in fact they made their Gods play dice quite literally, by throwing dice in their temples, to see the will of Gods. With the advent of chaos theory and non-linear dynamics we have come even to the recognition that non-predictability is omnipresent in the physical world. I tend to side with the ancients over Einstein in this matter. I think if there is a God he/she would most certainly enjoy a good game of dice now and again.

How hot is the sun?
The answers that are correct are
to hot to survive.
10billion degrees ( whatever it actually is)
and many other answers.
The answer depends a lot on your ability to understand.

We don't tell a child, that is 160degrees,
we say its hot! don't touch!

God Has given us the answers to the most important questions,
why we are here,
what we are supposed to do
why is the world so crazy....
It is not some super flashy writeen in the sky answer,
or some, revealed himself to the world leaders...
but it is all recorded in the bible, in a way we can understand.
some dismiss it because it would call for subjection to god,
and some think that man is the biggest baddest in the universe, but really were at least 3rd down the list ( maybe lower)
at least under God, Under Jesus, under the angles,
many scientist want to be the top, but we are not..
long story short, there is an answer, it has been given to mankind in a way they are capable of understanding,
there has been given proof for honest hearted people,
God Has never, and has no need to bring up any kind of falsehood, or deception.
if you have any particular questions you want answered, please feel free to write, and I Will give you a bible based answer if I know it, or direct you to someone who does.
serious questions only, I will not respond to anything that is not at least half way serious.

Logic, mathematics, and science are all inventions of man. How can we presume to impose upon the universe those neat structures that we, in our subjective experience, have created?

In very simple terms, I don't think we have to know the answer to every question ever to understand causality. One thing happens, which causes another. This would presumably be a 'logical' explanation for everything that's ever happened.

But if you're asking if the universe has an ordered or chaotic underlying structure, well, who knows? Your speculation is as good as mine.

Does everything in existence have an ultimate, logical explanation? I certainly hope not! If it does, then the answer si probably that God is just an assemahole--look at the doctrine of original sin! What kind of peckerhead would condemn a perfectly innocent newborn baby to suffer the fires of hell just because nobody had time to baptise the poor kid before he/she died?

What you just asked is impossible to explain, but I will try.
God himself does not have all the answers, because he to is god.
Just to define the objective subjective ideas of who god is to the world, and every individulal causes a paradox. Why are we not to question? It's not because god is above us, and knows all the answers. It's because in order to understand what the answer is you first must know the answer. You cannot comprehend an answer if you dont know what that answer implys. Why do we not know because we already do know, and have forgotten. God is like the good buddy at the end of the bar who waits for you to sober up, that's it. He already knows that you know, and is waiting for you to figure it out, then he helps with your drive back home.
