All of it points towards the fact that mechanical models explain things and as we learn more about the universe we are able to expand them and find new laws. This will continue. We will continue to learn more about how the universe developed. Laws and facts will be found (not all of this will happen in our lifetimes or anything, I'm talking long term...) that explain just about everything in the physical universe, I am sure. As I've said many times before, saying "we don't know and aren't able to find out right now so that means that we can't know and it is not explainable by a scientific model" is one of the most idiotic things anyone could say. Oh, go ahead and say you believe in God, but trying to even imply what you are? It's foolish and very, very wrong. I'll just have to repeat again that not being able to know now is NOT proof that we can't know or scientific models will never fit! I'd say quite the opposite -- that the fact that as we do learn more about things we always find ways to explain physics with rules strongly hints towards the idea that as we learn even more that will definitely continue.
You already think you know everything, Why bother looking now?
You already said you think that the universe is to big not to have other life out there like on earth, You dont know that for sure. Clearly some faith is needed, We dont know wormholes exist but people believe in it. It must be very wrong and wicked to have faith in somthing you cant prove just yet.
In your mind I am a nut job my beliefs are bull shit! A athiest once told me that "science can tell us were we came from but not who we are or were we are going".
I am concerned with the philosophical and spiritual aspects I leave science up to you.Science doesnt teach right and wrong or how to change your thinking and be a good person,Jesus said drink from my well of water you will never be thirsty or have endless want and need happiness will be yours.He isnt talking about a real pool of water, He is saying you want to find true happiness follow me and I will show you.
The Bible was never meant as a scientific book , Its not to be taken literaly out of context. But unlike other holy books there is no absurdities like elephants holding up the planet or grabing a tornado with a rope and pulling it.
Isiah said the earth was circular and hanged on nothing years before any attempt to believe the world was round and prove it like columbus.
But I cant prove to you god exist since I am not a scientist,Untill the day you can build me a time machine and we can go back to meet adam and eve weither they are humans or apes stop calling my beliefs bull shit and me a simple minded piece of garbage.You dont know everything neither did Albert Einstein alot of your knowledge of the universe comes from him but he was a believer in god himself in his last few years he never went out to disprove god or redicule peoples beliefs.
