Title: Religion Post by jonnycab on Jul 19th, 2006, 3:27am Although not a subscriber or member, I do tend to swing toward the Scientology theory that humans came from outer space. How come we are so much more intelligent than any other life on this planet. Apes & Dolphins are clever, but they are hundreds of thousands of years of evolution behind the human race. Not even the dinosaurs, that lived on this planet for 185 millions years could evolve to such a point where they could build houses & motorways etc. We've only be been here for what?...150,000 years in a kind of human form, & in the form we are now...for about 15,000 years? Since about 5000 BC we all worshipped different gods & then all of a sudden 2000 years ago Jesus arrived (supposedly on Christmas day...very convenient!). Since then the human race slowly progressed (even though it had progressed before with the Egyptians & South American Incas etc). Sure..gun powder was invented by the chinese...which led to guns etc. But it wasn't until the 20th century (and possible alien intervention) that man became really intelligent. In the space of a hundred years we've gone from horse drawn carriages to computer chips the size of a pinhead. Is that rapid evolution or what?..... or have we been helped? ;) |

Title: Re: Religion Post by Daven on Jul 19th, 2006, 8:12am See where you are coming from, and when you look at how many 'suns' there are the chances of another life supporting planet must be great but it must also be a case of when and where. As for the rapid progression - I'm not so sure. Computers have 'evolved' since 1834 - only improving as each of the component technology has improved or when tools or processes to manufacture the components have improved. That itself can be self-perpetuating as the computer/robotics improve they can carry out tasks humans are incapable of and therefore make better and smaller components. (well apart from Fiat ;D ) As for humans being more intelligent (mmm debatable ;) ) - a case of natural selection - humans were more prolific than Apes - but give them another 15000 years without the intervention of humankind and who knows. |

“What distinguishes the human brain,” a scientist said, “is the variety of more specialized activities it is capable of learning.” Computer science uses the term “hardwired” to refer to built-in characteristics based on fixed circuitry, in contrast to functions put into a computer by a programmer. “Applied to human beings,” one authority writes, “hard wiring refers to innate abilities or, at least, predispositions.” In people there are many built-in capacities for learning, but not the learning itself. Animals, by contrast, have hardwired instinctive wisdom, but limited capacities to learn new things. The Universe Within notes that the most intelligent animal “never develops a mind like that of a human being. For it lacks what we have: preprogramming of our neural equipment that enables us to form concepts out of what we see, language out of what we hear, and thoughts out of our experiences.” But we must, by input from our surroundings, program the brain, otherwise, as the book states, “nothing resembling the human mind would develop . . . Without that immense infusion of experience, scarcely a trace of intellect would appear.” So the capability that is built into the human brain enables us to construct the human intellect. And, unlike animals, we have the free will to program our intellects as we choose, based on our own knowledge, values, opportunities and goals. on 07/19/06 at 03:27:47, jonnycab wrote:
I personally believe the Bible's record of man only being on the earth for a little over 6000 years, this is smething that is supported by the British Museum in London too where the earth's timeline is charted and anything previous to 6000 years is marked with a '?'. on 07/19/06 at 03:27:47, jonnycab wrote:
Christmas day actually has nothing to do with Christ's birth. Quoting on World history the book 'On the Road to Civilization', page 164: “The feast of Saturn, the Saturnalia, was a winter festival which lasted a week beginning on the twenty-fifth day of December, and was celebrated with dancing, the exchanging of gifts, and the burning of candles. The Saturnalia was later taken over by the Christians as their Christmas, and given a new significance.” (More detailed research will also prove that the Xmas celebrations were of Pagan origin and date back to Nimrod after he married his own mother). Jesus was born in the month of Ethanim (September-October) of the year 2 B.C.E. One key fact that proves this is the shepherds still being in the fields, if Jesus was born in December, even in Israel the shepherds would not have been in the fields. on 07/19/06 at 03:27:47, jonnycab wrote:

Title: Re: Religion Post by Spannerdemon on Jul 19th, 2006, 10:41pm I don't believe in Religion. I make no apology for that or secret about it. Too much has happened in my short time on this planet for me to accept it. I often wonder just how clever we actually are? A question that I ask people in conversation is this. If you were the only 'intelligent' human being left on the planet, and you came across a group of people who knew literally nothing at all, what exactly could you teach them to help them survive, and to build a new beginning? I wonder how many of us could make the following items from scratch, and this is just a random selection, there are thousands of other examples. Steel, Plastic, Paper, Rubber, Fire, Cut stone, Mill wheat to make flour................... These are all things that we take for granted, but I doubt that many of us could even begin to know how they are made or how to actually begin to make them ourselves. I think we'd soon revert to an almost 'cave man' existence. Hunting animals with bows and arrows, and living in caves. We are clever as a race, but individually, we are probably not too bright when it comes down to it. ;) |

Title: Re: Religion Post by jonnycab on Jul 20th, 2006, 2:56am Some good theories & opinions. Daven, you wrote that humans were more prolific than apes, but aren't humans supposedly descended from apes? What happened along the evolutionary highway that split the two. My theory (as mad as it would seem, but not mine alone) is that there was an inter-breeding scheme set up to mix ape DNA with a more intelligent DNA taken from.....I hate to say it, but yes.....Aliens ;) It's not as fruitcake as it sounds when you think about modern day cloning techniques. You dread to think what kind of monstrosities they have created after mixing different kinds of DNA. And that are now, still pickled in large glass jars somewhere in some top secret laboratory. Besides, we are far from being the most prolific species on this planet by a long shot ::) DJWerkz.... good stuff, but can you honestly believe that humans didn't exist until 6000 years ago. What about Neanderthal & Neolithic man? Even though they weren't exactly what you would call human, they walked on two legs, knew how to hunt with weapons they made from flint etc, & wore animal skins as clothing. Sounds kind of human to me ;) Spanners....I think you are right. The average person only lives the way they do because of what they've got. Religion, science & technology dictates this. Take it all away & it's a 'lost on a desert island' scenario. But after a while, because you are the most intelligent life on the planet then you will learn how to survive very quickly by what you already know & with the animal instinct that you already have. One thing that humans have that animals don't is the ability to rationalise & be logical 8) Anyway....must go back to my nice white room now :P |

Best thing I would suggest is first go to the British Museum yourself if you have not been already and look at how much of the so-called 'evidence' supporting man's development from apes is real. Of course, it does come down to what you believe in, either the creation or evolution theory. But then either way whatever form of belief you choose to follow you are technically following a 'religion' as part of the definition of the word religion is to follow a form of belief. Religion has been one of the most damaging man made things on this earth in the history of human development, but that's because for the most part they choose to ignore God's standards laid down in his word the Bible and introduce their own ideas. Look at the history of the Israelites, they had God's blessing but repeatedly disobeyed his laws and reaped the consequences. The Jews were saying they were looking for the promised Messiah but when Jesus came to the earth they demanded his life and got his executed. Of course, you mention these things now in the wrong circles and you get the 'denial' factor ??? God's only recommendation is that we read and follow his word the Bible and test out for ourselves whether this is truth or not. However after this if we choose to follow it there comes acceptance of responsibility to live our lives in harmony with that truth,...something most religions do not even though they say they accept it. OK, sorry for rambling, have a good day everyone. |

Title: Re: Religion Post by sector-9 on Jul 20th, 2006, 10:12pm Regarding human intelligence (or not), how do you define intelligence? To me personally, it's not the amount of knowledge otherwise computers and libraries would be considered more intelligent than humans; it's the application of knowledge which demonstrates intelligence. Confused? You can program a robot to fill a sink to the correct level with water, and it will do it perfectly every time, but if one day there was a hole in the sink the robot would still try to fill it to the preset level. Even a child knows that if there is a hole in the sink it won't fill up so he won't attempt to try. This is because at some point earlier in the child's life they were told (or found) that you cannot fill something up if it has a leak - it doesn't matter whether that incident referred to a sink specifically, the child applies the same logic to the sink as to the previous object. A robot may have been taught that it must check for leaks in a bucket before filling it, but it won't automatically apply the same rule to the sink simply because it treats the sink as a totally separate object to a bucket, even though to us they both perform the same function as a container for liquid! The human brain (disgregarding basic life functions) is essentially a comparator with a huge memory store. Nearly everything you consciously do is a result of your brain referring to a past experience and comparing it with current sensor data before choosing how to respond. Ever made a joke at a party and put your foot in it? Your brain will know not to do that again in those circumstances! Same for when you were young and grabbed hold of something hot. Of course, even animals learn from their experiences, but like the robot, they don't reason that if a kettle is hot then the mug of coffee is likely to be too. We do because we see the steam coming from the kettle, and also from the mug so because we associate steam with hot water we know that even though the mug doesn't look like a kettle we must be careful. Daven is right; there have been many ideas put forth for centuries which were sound but the technology of the time couldn't produce. The computer itself is a very old idea but until electricity came along it was impractical to build. Even with electricity the very first ones took several rooms and had no more power than a pound shop calculator today. As we discovered semiconductors we were able to make smaller and faster computers - but the basic principles had existed far earlier. The same is true of flight; man has long known how it is that birds fly but the technology of the time was too crude to make it possible. The Wright brothers had to make their own engine to power their aircraft as the existing ones were all too heavy. On a different topic, the Bible says a thousand years to us are like a day to God. Genesis says He created the earth and everything in six days - but as there were no people around when He started there's no reason to believe it was 6x 24hr periods which iare what we call days. Not quite so hard to belive when you stop applying human viewpoints and limitations... Darren |

Title: Re: Religion Post by jonnycab on Jul 21st, 2006, 3:49am Darren...I understand & agree...really. Anyone can have a mind full of knowledge, but being able to apply that knowledge in a practical & usefull way requires intelligence. The only thing I really cannot get my head around is why there are so many people in this world who live their lives according to their own religion & denounce all other religions as false (seems a bit shallow minded). Darren & DJWerkz..please don't take any offence to this question as I am only asking out of interest, but can you thruthfully & honestly turn around & say to me that the Christian faith is the only true faith?, because being as intelligent as you both seem, then I would have thought that an open minded approach to religion was the most logical :) Please let me know if I'm pushing it a bit far :) |

lol,...no, you are not pushng it too far and neither do take any offence. Afterall, if you believe in creation (which I do), you believe that humans were created with free will (another differentiator between us and animals). We have free will to decide which path we want to take, even if it is the wrong one. The simple answer to your question about which is the right religion; if God is our creator would it surely not be the commands and principles he laid down for us that would be the wise course to follow? If you bought a DVD player and did not follow the manufacturers directions and warnings in the owners manual and for example started sticking sticking bread in the drawer mechanism and expecting toast to come out, it's reasonable to think that before long the DVD willl most likely fail at some point. Adam & Eve did not follow their 'manufacturers' warning and as such all human life after this was inflicted with imperfection. They were like the bread makers tin that has a dent in it and all batches of bread made from that tin contain an imperfection from the dent. As imperfect humans a trait has always been to do what they think is best and dismiss any need or value in applying God's command's and principles. The challenge then becomes to find the one true Faith (and the Bible does state that there is only one true Faith in God's eyes which you will recognise by it's works). I suppose in short the question should be; Not, what do I want, but what does God want? |

Maybe it wasn't really a good choice to start such a topic on a car forum, which is why I'm not going to contribute to this discussion anymore.

Religion as far as I can see is one of the main causes if not THEE main cause of death, destruction and heartache in our world, where is the good in that?? Yes its nice to think there is something to turn to when times are hard, when in need of support or help, that theres something at the end of the tunnel and I have no doubt people believe religion has helped them cope with all different kinds of things but I also believe religion is man made. |

Title: Re: Religion Post by Highlander on Jul 21st, 2006, 2:45pm ok, well on a slightly different track then...(and since no one seems willing to pick up my gauntlet) ;) If as Jonnycab states, we have only become so advanced in the last hundred years or so due to alien intervention, would it be safe to assume that due to the large number of Scottish inventions there is a higher percentage of Scottish aliens than can be found within any other nationality? The average Englishman in the home he call his castle slips into his national costume, a shabby raincoat, patented by Chemist Charles Macintosh from Glasgow, Scotland. En-route to his office he strides along the English lane, surfaced by John Macadam of Ayr, Scotland. He drives an English car fitted with tyres invented by John Boyd Dunlop, Veterinary Surgeon of Dreghorn, Scotland. At the office he receives the mail bearing adhesive stamps invented by John Chalmers, Bookseller and Printer of Dundee, Scotland. During the day he uses the telephone invented by Alexander Graham Bell, born in Edinburgh, Scotland. At home in the evening his daughter pedals her bicycle invented by Kirkpatrick Macmillan, Blacksmith of Thornhill, Dumfriesshire, Scotland. He watches the news on television, an invention of John Logie Baird of Helensburgh, Scotland, and hears an item about the U.S. Navy founded by John Paul Jones of Kirkbean, Scotland. Nowhere can an Englishman turn to escape the ingenuity of the Scots. He has by now been reminded too much of Scotland and in desperation he picks up the Bible, only to find that the first man mentioned in the good book is a Scot, King James VI, who authorized its translation. He could take to drink but the Scots make the best in the world. He could take a rifle and end it all, but the breech-loading rifle was invented by Captain Patrick Ferguson of Pitfours, Scotland. If he escaped death, he could find himself on an operating table injected with penicillin, discovered by Sir Alexander Fleming of Darvel, Scotland, and given chloroform, an anesthetic discovered by Sir James Young Simpson, Obstetrician and Gynecologist of Bathgate, Scotland. Out of the anesthetic he would find no comfort in learning that he was as safe as the Bank of England founded by William Paterson of Dumfries, Scotland. Perhaps his only remaining hope would be to get a transfusion of guid Scottish blood which would entitle him to ask: "Wha's Like Us?" ;) |

Title: Re: Religion Post by jonnycab on Jul 27th, 2006, 2:12am Just one other thought about rapid evolution/alien intervention as far as humans are concerned. We do still retain alot of animal instincts & traits, & even though we are not consciously aware of them, we use them everyday without realising. A sixth sense when you know someone is looking at you. A familiar smell that reminds you of a place or situation. Pheremones sub-consciously attract or repell you to a certain person. Testosterone & adrenalin, like in animals, causes a chemical imbalance in the brain & changes your normal rational behaviour, & there is nothing you can do about it. These are only a few I could think of for the moment, but I'm sure there are many more. My point being is that we probably used to have the ability to survive like animals, but because of rapid evolution / alien intervention (recently & thousands of years ago), then we are no longer in need of these abilities (even though we still have them). So they have fallen by the wayside as it were, but are still there in our sub-conscious & tend to kick in, in certain situations. A physical clue that proves we were once sub-human is the appendix, which I'm sure everyone knows was used to break down toxins. There is another organ in the human body which isn't used anymore, but it escapes me now. As far as I'm concerned, human evolution has been a little bit too rapid compared to the rest of mother natures creations.....It's possibly out of this world? P.S. I know I said I wouldn't contribute anymore to this discussion, but I couldn't resist it ;D Back to my cushioned white walled room now 8) |
