Thank you for the offer. I have already found my way and am very pleased with. And again, I cannot prove things that are not of this physical world. This is only a four dimensional world at that.

Nothing at all wrong with 'Christianity', it's fine; it's people who are the cause of their own problems.

"As it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be when the Son of Man comes."
Speaking of the days of Noah:
"The Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth,(L) and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time.(M) 6 The Lord regretted(N) that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled."
So no. Man is not "pretty good"

He doesnt have the right lineage. He didnt do any of the major prophecies. Like bringing about the messianic age.
Not to mention, many prophecies he was said to have fulfilled are mistranslations.

Very good thank you very much, Stan.
Maybe you should read up on natural law and it's influence on the founding of America.
The founding statements of the universities in colonial times are FACTS, and the quotes of the founding fathers are representative of the beliefs of all founding fathers.
The philosophy of natural rights was championed by such Founding Fathers as Richard Bland, Patrick Henry, Thomas Jefferson, Richard Henry Lee, James Madison, George Mason, Robert Carter Nicholas, Peyton Randolph, George Washington, and George Wythe. Indeed, it would be amazing if any Revolutionary leader of the Commonwealth could be found who did not subscribe to the doctrines of natural law and right. Moreover, the doctrine was not limited to the select few who directed Virginia's destinies, but was widely held and continually expressed by the popular asse
It's not a coincidence the universe popped into existence being hardwired to produce life and intelligence. There's your evidence.

Catholic priests developed the idea of free-market economics five hundred years before Adam Smith.
The word university itself is Latin, derived from universities magistrorum et scholarium, which roughly means “community of teachers and scholars.” It is an institution which awards academic degrees in various academic disciplines. It has roots in the European medieval university, which was created in Italy and evolved from cathedral schools spanning back in the 6th century run by priests and nuns. All the system and it’s faculties were in fact invented by the Catholic Church.
The Catholic Church and the Creation of the University
The Church played a central if not exclusive role in the establishment and encouragement of the university.

Canon law of the Catholic Church - Wikipedia
Ask someone today where Western Civilization originated, and he or she might say Greece or Rome. But what is the ultimate source of Western Civilization? Bestselling author and professor Thomas E. Woods, Jr. provides the long neglected answer: the Catholic Church. In the new paperback edition of his critically-acclaimed book, How the Catholic Church Built Western Civilization, Woods goes far beyond the familiar tale of monks copying manuscripts and preserving the wisdom of classical antiquity. Gifts such as modern science, free-market economics, art, music, and the idea of human rights come from the Catholic Church, explains Woods. In How the Catholic Church Built Western Civilization, you’ll learn:
- Why modern science was born in the Catholic Church
- How Catholic priests developed the idea of free-market economics five hundred years before Adam Smith
- How the Catholic Church invented the university
- Why what you know about the Galileo affair is wrong
- How Western law grew out of Church canon law
- How the Church humanized the West by insisting on the sacredness of all human life
No institution has done more to shape Western civilization than the two-thousand-year-old Catholic Church—and in ways that many of us have forgotten or never known. How the Catholic Church Built Western Civilization is essential reading for recovering this lost truth.

no, not even close - what matters is the written, legal document that is by deliberation strictly secular throughout its text and meaning. those you quote did not contribute to the final version and never were taken seriously.

the cyclical universe transformed from energy back to matter in the most recent cycle - the metaphysical forces that maintains the process are eternal and logically reflective of the life form that naturally evolves, having nothing whatsoever to do with 4th century christianity.

Name calling and bullying are not acceptable.
Gossiping, slandering, and libeling people with sexual innuendos in the third person is not acceptable either.
Dude ain't got no respect for the lady.
Free markets existed long before the Catholic Church or Adam Smith wrote about them.
Well, I don't like chancery court magistrate judges telling me what I can and cannot read, write, and speak.
Rome is Western only because Italy is to the West of Greece — Greek Civilization was considered Eastern, not Western — maybe you need a little geographic frame of reference before you ride roughshod over the common people with that Marxist Communist Roman Catholic dictatorship of the proletariat for whom there's a Pope on the throne but the existence of God in Holy Communion in both kinds is denied.

Again, do you have a verse for that?
My point is that Christianity as biblically presented is absolutely right. It's historically accurate, it is arguably the crossroads of human history, and it's even prophetic. Nothing is wrong with it.
The problem is modern Christians who preach their own, extra-biblical brand of Christianity, distorting the message. The Bible does not say the church age ends, for example. In fact, quite the opposite; the church age is forever.
If anything is wrong with Christianity, it's that it seems overwhelmed by false teaching and sometimes seems powerless to combat it.

As far as I'm concerned you're on the right track, are you familiar with Stephen Hawking's eternal inflation theory, he was so close. U={Pi 1<_i <_i _i max} ( 1 ) .Formula is about there too. To be continued....
