That is learning? [/QUOTE]That was a question to be answered. I was speaking of primitive goat herders being expected to understand and grasp the physics involved in the creation/big bang of the universe. It seems that non-creationists beleive that because the creation story is not filled with the introcasies(sp?) of physics it is false. So I asked them "So why would an Infinite being try to cram into their heads the physics of sub-atomic particals(sp?)?" When these people had barely mastered melting cooper. I have nearly 20 year expereince(sp?) in screenprinting, and 2 grand daughters, 17 months, and 6 days old, I can't explain to them all that is involved in screeprinting or why grandpa has to leave and go to work. They are too young, the 16 month old all she knows is grandpa must leave, so I say goodbye and kiss her on the forehead, the 6 day old doesn't even know that so I kiss her on the forehead and go to work. They are not ready for the knowledge of why yet. When they grow then there will come a time they will be ready for that. Everybody understands that logic yet because, an infinite being with infinite wisdom & knowledge didn't impart the secrets of quatum physics to sherpards must mean a infinite being doesn't exsist. I'm asking how that logic works? I am seeking to understand that logic. I understand I can not make anyone believe anything nor can they make me, but what we can do is exchange our logic, ideas and explore the weakness and truths in those logics. I put forth my beliefs and the logic used in forming those beliefs. I can stand to have my logic/reasoning questioned, in fact I demand it, if my logic/reasoning can not standup to questioning how firm a position is it? There is a differance in asking questions in an attempt to learn/seek knowledge and stating one's position as a fact. If anyone, me included, states a position then they should be willing to cheerfully answer questions ask of them.
