Re: Materialism versus a sense of wonder



I totally agree. And we've seen in this thread which "side" the limits
come from. God is infinite: without limit. Material universe is
finite: began with big bang, before which nothing. I'm with Pyrrho on
this. The "truth" may be there are no facts.


I disagree. God is not infinite at all. God is limited by the imagination of the people projecting Godness on the universe.


>> Speculation about the fifth dimension is a universal
discovery. Discovering a new species of frog is a particular discovery.

You're joking, obviously.


The ironic thing is, I often have a similar reaction to your comments.
