Kinda

 


make you wonder why it was 

"born"

the way it was dont it?


5 “what ifs” that would have changed cosmic history

"If our Universe were born 

a little differently

there wouldn't have been any 

planets, stars, galaxies, or chemically interesting reactions."


Hey Neil Degrasse Tyson?

I heard somebody say you were looking for 

EVIDENCE 

of a creator.

Well there ya go.

(along with a bunch of other stuff:

Brute Facts

Constants etc...)


Let me give you a hint

(and I've been telling my own people the same)

Dont look for a bearded man,

you wont find one.


John 4:24

"God is Spirit."


"After 9.2 billion years, 

what would become our Solar System 

gradually began to form from a collapsing cloud of molecular gas, 

and after another 4.55 billion years or so, humanity first arose on planet Earth."


(There is your "evidence" of a theistic agent acting upon his creation for ya Mr. Tyson.

Theism

belief in the existence of a god or gods, especially belief in one god as creator of the universe, intervening in it and sustaining a personal relation to his creatures.)



"If you would have increased or decreased that density by just 0.00000000001%, the Universe would have:

recollapsed on itself, ending in a Big Crunch after less than 1 second, in the case of an increase,

or expanded so quickly that no protons and electrons would ever have found one another to form even a single atom in the Universe, in the case of a decrease.

This incredible balance, along with the need for it, highlights just how precarious our existence in this Universe is.

(Already covered this one a while back, but once again? It just how shows how exact the intelligence behind it's design was if you ask me Mr. Tyson. And why were you so visibly upset during that interview? I cant find the exact interview I was looking for or I would have included it. If people want evidence of God? Just look at the stars. 


Psalm 19:1-4

The heavens declare the glory of God

and the firmament sheweth his handywork.

Day unto day uttereth speech, 

and night unto night sheweth knowledge.

There is no speech nor language, 

where their voice is not heard.


You're living in his creation. 

It had a beginning. 

Something outside of it had to have created it. 

An entity can not exist in something that hasn't been created yet. 

I wonder which metaphysical beginning to the universe Mr. Tyson ascribes to? 

There are six possibilities, 

one is head and shoulders above the rest. 

I hope you choose wisely sir.)



What if there had been exactly equal amounts of matter and antimatter? This is another problematic one for us, and in fact it’s one of the greatest unsolved problems in all of physics: why do we live in a Universe with more matter than antimatter? This puzzle has many possible resolutions, but no definitive answer. 


(I 100% disagree. while it might be a problem for the physicist?

It is by no means a problem for the theologian.


Matter is primary.

it shows gods intent to enjoy his creation with man.

Without matter?

 There is no need for 

Time and Space

nor the energy required to put it all together.


New American Bible (Revised Edition)

Notes:

Genesis 1:1- Genesis 2:3

"The chapter highlights the goodness of creation 

and the divine desire that human beings share in that goodness."


What we can say, for certain, is that:

in the early stages of the hot Big Bang, the Universe should have been perfectly symmetric between matter and antimatter,

and that somehow, some process occurred 

(That sounds "certain" to you?

Just whatever could it have been?

)


that resulted in the existence of approximately 

1,000,000,001 matter particles 

for every 1,000,000,000 antimatter particles,"


(The battle has already been won.

Good defeats evil.

There's your EVIDENCE.

Brother Joe:

"Christians fight from victory.

Not for victory.

The battle has already been won.)


and when the excess annihilated away, 

(Told ya :-)

we were left with that 

tiny bit of matter amidst a leftover bath of radiation.

That radiation still survives, as does the matter, which is why we can reconstruct what happened at early times."



"We still don’t know how it happened..."


(Well...

ya know...

who really cares?

:-).

We'll get that when we get to heaven :-) 

The fact is it did or we wouldn't be here, and lots of us know already know why we are here.)



"Today’s Universe, you’ll recall, has about ~1 proton per cubic meter of space: if you smeared out the entire Universe and drew a box that was 1 meter × 1 meter × 1 meter, you’d expect to find about 1 proton inside. When you work out the math for what happens if matter and antimatter annihilated away from a perfectly symmetric state, you’d find a very different Universe. Radiation would keep scattering off of these particles for tens of millions of years, rather than just a few hundred thousand, and the average density of all forms of matter and antimatter would be the equivalent of only ~1 proton (or antiproton) per cubic mile: a box that was 1 mile × 1 mile × 1 mile, or about 10 billion times less dense than the Universe we have today.


"If our Universe hadn’t created a matter-antimatter asymmetry early on, none of the remarkable steps that came afterward to lead to our existence could have taken place."


(Hey Mr Tyson?

Want some more evidence?

The universe on it's own decided:

"matter-antimatter asymmetry"?


"If our Universe hadn’t created a matter-antimatter asymmetry early on..."

Interesting concept.


Theism

belief in the existence of a god or gods, especially 

belief in one god as creator of the universe

intervening in it 

and sustaining a personal relation to his creatures.)



"Take dark matter away, and what happens? The small-scale structure you’d attempt to form wouldn’t exist, as the early radiation-dominated phase of the Universe would wash those imperfections away. Meanwhile, the galaxies that you did form would undergo one burst of star formation, and then those stars would boil all the surrounding matter away, ejecting it from the galaxy entirely. In a Universe with no dark matter, only that first generation of stars would exist, meaning there would be no rocky planets, no biochemistry, and no life."


(More EVIDENCE of an intellect behind the design Mr. Tyson!

I mean how long can you just go on assuming all of these are some kinda grand accident?

I assure you Mr. Tyson knows of these.

To put forth the proposition that they aren't EVIDENCE of design 

and therefore that there has to be an "intellect" behind them?

ITS FLAT OUT RIDICULOUS.

Maybe that's why he was so visibly upset in that interview?

"What if dark energy weren’t constant in space or time? This is the one possibility that’s still on the table for our Universe: that dark energy might evolve in some fashion. To the best of our observational limits


Psalm 74:17

You set all the boundaries of the earth

You made the summer and winter.

(God did)


it certainly looks and behaves like a cosmological constant — as a form of energy inherent to the fabric of space itself — where the energy density remains constant in time and all throughout space.


(Dark energy just decided for itself to come into existence? 

And how it should operate?

As did the speed of light 

and all the other constants in the universe?


These things just have a mind of their own 

and decide for themselves 

what they should be/how they should work?

Where else do we see this in nature?

 

No EVEIDENCE of any intellect behind them (constants of the universe) at all?

Please...

Things just keep getting more and more preposterous the more you dig into it.)



"If dark energy strengthens, the Universe could rip apart. If dark energy weakens or reverses its sign, the Universe could yet recollapse. And if dark energy decays, the Universe as we know it could end. None of these things have happened yet, but if the Universe were only slightly different, any one of them could have taken place in the past, precluding our existence from occurring at all."




(I mean seriously:
Either we are an accident 
that was so improbable that 
no super computer in the world 
could tell you just how small the 
chances of our being here is?


All the possible combinations of:

Within the galactic habitable zone

During the cosmic habitable age



EFFECTS OF PRIMARY FINE-TUNING PARAMETERS 

The polarity of the water molecule



All possible combinations 
of all of those 
have to exist somewhere?
Even though we have 
no EVIDENCE as of yet 
(nor will we)
to think such?

Or an intellect behind something 
we know had a beginning?

Come on now, 
best guess.
What does your logical 
rational brain 
(that God gave you)
tell you is more likely?

Occam's razor:

"Entities must not be multiplied 
beyond necessity"


Look at that picture again:



Sure does looks like:

"Entities multiplied beyond necessity"

to me.


God gave you a brain for a reason Mr. Tyson.
I think you already know the answer 
and you and a lot of your contemporaries just dont like it.
And that's why you were so visibly upset.
And that's why such fanciful concoctions 
such as the multiverse came into being in the first place.
To get around the obvious that some just dont wanna admit.



"All of this, when taken together, 
leads us to a fascinating conclusion: 
if any of these things were — 
in any way — 
substantially different from the way they are, 
it would have been a physical impossibility for human beings to have arisen as we did within the Universe.

"If you would have increased or decreased that density 
by just 0.00000000001%, the Universe would have:

recollapsed on itself, ending in a Big Crunch after less than 1 second, in the case of an increase,

or expanded so quickly that no protons and electrons would ever have found one another to form even a single atom in the Universe, in the case of a decrease.

So now?
0.00000000001%
is substantially different?
I dont think so.
Seems pretty minuscule to me.)


A Universe that was too smooth would have failed to create stars and galaxies in time; 

a Universe that expanded too quickly or slowly wouldn’t have remained stable for long enough to form anything interesting. 

A Universe without more matter than antimatter couldn’t have formed stars, 

and a Universe without dark matter couldn’t have hung onto their remnants to form planets.


In many ways, we’re extremely fortunate to have gotten the Universe that we occupy, 

(Blessed I think would be a better word than fortunate.)

as if any one of a great number of things were even a little bit different, 

(I know,
it's overkill :-)
But you already know I subscribe to a 
"Kill an ant w/ a sledgehammer philosophy"

So 1 more time :-)
Here are all the things not listed here, 
that if they were just the littlest bit different?
We wouldn't have a universe w life in it that we do.

Mr. Tyson doesn't see those as EVIDENCE of an intellect behind the universe formation/evolution.
Sux for him.


"the Universe would not have admitted the existence of humans
or any intelligent observer, 
as a possibility. 
But in this cosmos of ours, exactly the way it is, we fully suspect that there are several trillion galaxies present. Around one of the ~400 billion stars in one of them, the Milky Way, life took hold, survived, thrived, and evolved. 

(Ya might wanna try and figure out why that is.
Some of us have known  for a long time already:

New American Bible 
(Revised Edition)

Notes:

Genesis 1:1- Genesis 2:3

"The chapter highlights the goodness of creation 

and the divine desire that human beings share in that goodness."



"After more than 4 billion years, human beings arose, "

(More EVIDENCE for:

Theism
belief in the existence of a god or gods
especially belief in one god as creator of the universe
intervening in it 
and sustaining a personal relation to his creatures.

Mr. Tyson?)

and now we look out at the Universe to learn our place in it. It may not have been an inevitable journey from the Big Bang to us, but it sure has been a remarkable one.



I found the interview!
:-). 
Yeah me :-).






Dear Mr Tyson:

Religion isn't the belief in something that there is no evidence of.
As listed above?
There is plenty of evidence of a creator.
So much so that Theism is head and shoulders above 
the other metaphysical explanations for how the universe came into existence.
Religion is the belief in something you can't prove.
And it's for a reason.
God gave you a free will to choose for yourself.
Unlike others who say they are acting on his behalf?
He wont force himself on you.



He said he wanted evidence?

I think he already has plenty.
I think he needs to read these instead:




As well as:




38. Excuse
"Why does God allow evil in this world?"

Answer: Freedom of choice is the creators gift to the human race. 
"This day I call the heavens and the earth as witnesses against you that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Now choose life, so that you and your children may live." (Deuteronomy 30:19)
Sin originated in man, not in God. God prevents sin's dominion. (Romans 6:14).
God has, at his own cost, provided a remedy. "I am the way, the truth and the life" (John 14:6)


39. Excuse
"There is so much suffering."

Answer: This is not the world as God planned it-the world that he said was "very good" (Genesis1:31). It is the world in which man has spread his sin.  As I have observed, those who plow evil and those who sow trouble reap it (Job 4:8).
God has provided an alternative. 
"For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord."
(Romans 6:23)
It is not the world that God intends to establish (Isaiah 65:20)



Unfortunately?
I think somebody could raise someone from the dead right in front of him
give all honor and power and glory to the almighty
and Mr. Tyson wouldn't believe it.


Luke 16:31

Then Abraham said to him,
‘If they do not listen to Moses and the prophets, 
they will not be persuaded 
even if someone rises from the dead.’”


Him and a bunch of others...

I hate it for them...

I really do.
