Again that makes no sense. I can still have strong evidence for something and still have gaps. Think of a picture puzzle that is half complete.

Snowflakes are evidence for naturalism, not for snow Kobolds. 7.6 billion people are evidence intelligent beings do not simply exist knowing how to create universes.

and yet we still have design which you have to explain away. You observe something (design) time and time again in the universe but simply deny that which you observe.

Care to explain? I'm lost in grammar.



Btw, snowflakes. No one really knows where rain is coming from, though it is "explained". Tap any serious scientist, they will shy away from 100% proof positive answer. I mean, real scientist, honest one, not those who parrot what they read in school books.

This is a topic very near and dear to me. However it seems like this thread has been hijacked and steered way off topic. Well I think that past lives memories would be important for many reasons. I think one reason could be to make you spiritually aware. Another may be to learn and grow. I could go on and on but I think I’ll stop here. Let’s just go back to the pointless banter. Happy New Year!

Why? This is interesting.

However, I'm not sure that there has to be a "reason" for them.

Humans evolved. People are born. They have to learn complex subjects. This we know. We do not know anyone who just existed, and who knew how to do things. Yet first cause theists want us to believe that their god did just exist, and somehow knew how to create a universe? Saying it just did answers nothing.

But they are still products of natural forces, and not an intelligent being.

Well, my many past life memories made me very humble...showed how amazingly dense I am, repeating
the same mistake over and over. I got it now about 95%.
I got that I shouldn't murder and pillage and rob banks !

It's the simple things that kept me from really moving on and progressing in wisdom;
Gossip.
Tho, true - is unkind and hurts the other person on a psychic level to perpetuate the memory
of their mistake
and to influence another's opinion of them.
Bad ju-ju. I keep my mouth shut, um, maybe 97% of the time, finally. 'Venting' to a friend is
a trick of the ego.

I still sigh, at this tough lesson for me to learn; undoing the ego's grip. Does it seem small?
Just another trick of the egoic mind.

We do not deny design, there is no design. You just deny this because you need to beg the question.
