Over the past 5 years I have struggled with depression and anxiety. The main cause I think was about 5 years ago, I began thinking about the world much more. I ended up with many questions with few answers. I am not creating this thread for people to answer them, but if you can, by golly, sure. I just want to hear some tips on how to deal with these things.

What is time?
If there is a god, what created him and how?
Who wrote the Bible?(proof?)
Ar questions just as important as answers?
If everything was just created, what was it created from?
How could matter appear out of nothing?
How did humans evolve to have consciousness?
If you would go to hell...how would you feel eternal pain if you left your body and brain with your nerves behind?
How powerful is the human mind?
How old is the universe?
Why do I look at things from a perspective of a nonhuman being?
For this one, I just seem to never look at things from a human, or my side. Though something could be annoying for me and help animals or plants, I side with the plants or animals instantly.
Why do some Christians shut off their minds to science?
Why is science considered a religion?

This questions are really stupid...

Time is just to keep up with everything and organize

God was obviously created by his mom and dad ...

Witnesses of God wrote the bible

What kind of question is the 4th.. now you're being dumb

The Big Bang Theory which contradicts the bible which contradicts your other questions -.-

Same as before

Ok the rest of you're questions are stupid

I never thought of it that way lol.

It always helps to read the questions.
Many of the questions are actually written rather hypothetically. "If"s and "Could"s, all making the question less hard edged, and more designed to give a subjective opinion on it.

Ok the rest of you're questions are stupid

Have to be it to see it. /Poe's law
It would also be nice if you didn't write like that, but I guess you won't care to come back and read this, so it is probably as futile to post this as it is to discuss your points.

What is time?

It is the measure of the earth's rotation on its axis in combination with its orbit around the sun giving us seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months including lunar(28)days months and years of 365 days.

If there is a god, what created him and how?


God is defined as God the father, God the Son,(Jesus Christ), and God the Holy Spirit who is and was without beginning or end.

Who wrote the Bible?(proof?)


Proof is being discovered by archaeologists every day but for now they've discovered The Apostle Paul's letters to the churches. Some of these were "written" by his assistants while he was in chains in prison. The Apostle Peter wrote a book of the New Testament as did James, a brother of Jesus, just to name a few.

If you would like to know more, feel free to leave a comment on my profile and I'll provide links, scripture, etc.

Ar questions just as important as answers?


This is only my opinion but I believe when we stop asking questions we stop growing and maturing as human beings.

If everything was just created, what was it created from?


That depends on what you believe as I think this is up to the individual as to whether they believe there is a God, or Supreme Maker.
I personally believe both science and Christianity. God created the heavens and the earth and there wouldn't have been matter or expanding matter to cause the Big Bang without Him.

How could matter appear out of nothing?


Science says matter isn't "created". I would defer to others that study this subject more than I do for a better explanation and where to find links to this question on the internet.
I say that all of creation, heavens and earth share common DNA even meteorites display this.

How did humans evolve to have consciousness?


I believe we as humans are born with a consciousness because we instinctively know who our mothers are as babies.

If you would go to hell...how would you feel eternal pain if you left your body and brain with your nerves behind?


This is a mystery and no one alive knows for sure what happens to our spirits,(if you believe that everyone possesses one?).

How powerful is the human mind?


Powerful enough to learn different languages, arts,(such as writing cooking, painting, music, etc.), to forgive a child of every wrong but still strong enough to teach a child what they will need to grow into an adult. The human brain can imagine the body cured of cancers, pain, while grasping physics and philosophy and civil duty.

How old is the universe?

I don't know.

Why do I look at things from a perspective of a nonhuman being?

For this one, I just seem to never look at things from a human, or my side. Though something could be annoying for me and help animals or plants, I side with the plants or animals instantly.


This is something you will have to work out for yourself. I can not explain why you feel "detached". I would suggest keeping a journal of your thoughts as they relate to your "real-time" world and maybe a pattern will develop that will be useful if you decide to talk with a Psychiatrist. I suggest a Psychiatrist because they are MD's and Psychologists are PhD's. Psychiatrists treat the "whole" person.

Why do some Christians shut off their minds to science?


Bias and prejudice exist because of ignorance.

Why is science considered a religion?


Actually I thought Religion was considered a science?

Fit's most fo the ones I've run into who do that.


then you must be meeting the wrong christians becasue every christian i know excepts science but still believes in god. some people that are like that just piss me off.

and what else pisses me off is when athiests try and prove my beliefs wrong right in front of me.... its kida annoying so when people like that are doing it to me i might as well create the stereotype that athiests are annoying as hell.... how does that sound. punk

This is as much a stereotype as the stupid christians are.
The world works like this:
Woever yells the loudest gets the most attention. Which means that people that are not generally in the extremist corners of the argument sooner or later will leave the discussion, because no one is going to listen to them or that opinion. And those who do will say they are wrong, no matter what side they are on.

That said, this does not seem to be so much on topic as it could be, and it is a rather odd argument as well. Keep it down a bit, will you?

=O

Cen made a spelling mistake?!?!

=O

Also haven't answered the questions:

What is time?


Relative.

If there is a god, what created him and how?


God has to be uncreated it's impossible to say how; if he was created the being that created him would be the true God

Who wrote the Bible?(proof?)

Various Jewish and Christian men wrote what we know as the Bible

Ar questions just as important as answers?


What's a good answer but another question?

If everything was just created, what was it created from?


Either there was something that was uncreated or because time and matter are related both could have came in to existence in one instance.

How could matter appear out of nothing?


See above.

How did humans evolve to have consciousness?


Personally I believe God granted a conscious to the original humans but it might have come about do it moral problems throughout hominid history.

If you would go to hell...how would you feel eternal pain if you left your body and brain with your nerves behind?


Your soul would continue to feel.

How powerful is the human mind?


Very.

How old is the universe?


Very.

Why do I look at things from a perspective of a nonhuman being?

For this one, I just seem to never look at things from a human, or my side. Though something could be annoying for me and help animals or plants, I side with the plants or animals instantly.


Maybe you can empathize more with the animals or plants or see them as &quoturer" beings.

Why do some Christians shut off their minds to science?


For the same reason anyone else does; ignorance.

Why is science considered a religion?


Ignorance.

Hi kaboni my name is Postmodernism and because you don't believe in an absolute moral code (?) you can't know the meaning of life. It's subjective according to me my friend and I'm the leading school of modern thought.

Sorry if my question offended you, but I was being sarcastic :P

Loosen up, lets go hit up a bar, and enjoy life.

Never mind, profile says you're just a child, so I'll just leave it at that. Sorry again :P


Sarcasm doesn't work on internet forums XP

It's all good though...seriously though post modern thought; check it out.
