That ain't new age BS it's common sense. In the beginning there was God, and God was good... thought... which manifested... everything.
It is total BS. You don't use the dictionary to define energy as a physical concept, much less the three different everyday meanings of the word mixed together in the most ignorant (and convenient) for you way.
God's power or energy is the spoken word. God is in everything.
Bullshit. God does not even exist.
Even string theory says everything is connected by a vibrating string. All sound or words are just vibrations. And those vibrations shape our world and everything in it.
String theory does not say that. And sound vibrations operate on a scale much bigger than the strings that string theory postulates. You have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. Your understanding of these things is at the level of a 5-year old who hears about string theory for the first time
My opinions are old ones before people started segregating ideas and truths for power, pride, and oppression.
More bullshit. I don't understand where the idea that old ideas are somehow superior to new ones come from (well, I actually do, but half a book can be written on this so I will skip the explanation). Exactly the opposite is true. Old ideas reflect the ignorance of the people who originated them relative to what has been learned after them.
It makes no sense to think that anybody 10 years ago was better informed than we are today on any subject, and you (and everyone who adheres to any version of the Abrahamic religions) are suggesting to go back to the world view of some ignorant goat-herders that lived in the desert 4000 years ago.
I understand that because the average Joe is so ignorant about what scientists do and what science actually is, it is very easy for him to imagine "The big intellectual conspiracy". But that's entirely a product of his ignorance and stupidity. Atheism arose from the advancement of our understanding of the world, not from pride. And in this day and age, the advancement our understanding of the world is helped by the fact that there are some people out there who would rather do the work and figure things out than declare "God did it". But it was the data, not people who were looking for power to to oppress others that removed God out of the picture. Actually, if you are looking for people looking to oppress others, the religious leaders are a good starting point, and have been so for millenia.
In the early 1800s, the French mathematician Laplace presented Napoleon with a copy of his great five-volume work on the solar system, the Mechanique Celeste. Aware that the books contained no mention of God, Napoleon taunted him, “Monsieur Laplace, they tell me you have written this large book on the system of the universe, and have never even mentioned its Creator.” Laplace answered, famously and brusquely: “Je n’avais pas besoin de cette hypothese-la,” “I have had no need of that hypothesis.” And scientists have not needed it since.
The above illustrates what I am saying very nicely
In the world of the blind the man with one eye is king. In the world of the seeing we are all kings and princes. Kings of the truths we hold and princes to the truths we seek to learn.
Lots of words, zero information content
You gotta take all the pieces and put them together to figure out the bigger puzzle that is life
Exactly, and that's what you lack the intelligence, the education, the training and the information to do so go to work, acquire those, and then come back to argue in 15 years after you're past the intellectual level of a 5-year old
