Coincidence that Sun and Moon seem same size or God's work?

[Omega.SportSciencie]

Is it a coincidence that flesh-eating bacteria exists, or is it gods work?

Is it a coincidence that the primary cause of death is heart disease, or is that gods work?

Is it a coincidence that god hates fags, yet appears powerless to stop them?

Is it a coincidence that god puts the death penalty on 613 things, but christians only know 11 of them? (10 commandments +that verse about fags in leviticus)

Is it a coincidence that god hates disobedient children, shellfish, eating meat and dairy in the same meal, or cutting your sideburns? (death penalty for each of these)

Those rules are not the current rules, those rules were set for barbaric people on ancient times who had a cult of offering their childs alive to be burnt in a statue of a god called "moloch" and played drums to silence the screaming of the child.

Are you calling the God of the bible barbaric?

I said FOR not BY, I am calling barbaric the people whom God set those rules for.

So the rules God set for the people were not barbaric?

No, because if I see someone burning their childs to make happy a stupid god they believe, I would kill them too.

Solar Eclipse: Coincidence that sun and moon seem same size?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1C331w687tI

The Sun is 400 times larger than the Moon, but it is also 400 times further away.  What this means is that, when viewed from the Earth, the Moon is exactly the correct size to perfectly obscure the Sun when they are aligned during a total eclipse. Don't believe me? Check Wikipedia and calculate yourself. In the known universe Earth is the only place where total eclipses occur because of this. Just a coincidence or one of God's miracles?

Are you headed toward Blood Moon prophesies with this?

I don't believe in them.

Glad to hear that.  To answer your question, there are a number of things in cosmology that we don't see clear reasons for, that some might call coincidence.  For example there's the similarity between the distances of the planets from the Sun, and the distance between the electron shells of an atom. 

In the past, things that looked odd were investigated, and in many cases this resulted in the discover of scientific principles.  However, this particular situation has to be considered as just random chance.  The reason is that the universe doesn't care what some tiny primitive human sees, whether an eclipse is partial or total.

1) If you kill someone, you are violating that commandment about murder... basically the only commandment anyone cares about... what the fuck?

2) I fail to understand how you can claim that god changed his mind about slavery, homophobia, genocide, etc between the old and new testament... what is 500 years to a god?  God had a change of heart about slavery, et al, in 500 years?

No... the god of the old testament is different from the god of the new testament because they are both fiction

Occam's razor is a principle from philosophy. Suppose there exist two explanations for an occurrence. In this case the simpler one is usually better. Another way of saying it is that the more assumptions you have to make, the more unlikely an explanation is.

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

How simple is that?

[Masha Sha]

The universe is an ad for the glory of God... In short it's a teaser... But contrary to most ads the best is to come. Keep faith, behave righteously even if it's unproductive... The great filter of life. Do you want a palace in this life (where death due to age is a given) or a house in the afterlife? What's great is that if you read this you still have the opportunity to recalibrate... But for how long? ;-)

No coincidence, the earth is flat, the sun and moon revolve around a circular path around "pole"laris
North (Polaris) is center
Facing North (center)  East is to your right,West is to your left, that is how you go "around" the World, you go around the center, south is always outwards
The Sun and Moon are rotating about 1000kms/h, when you see them "rise" they are just heading towards you and entering your veiwing perpective
When the Moon and Sun are "setting" they are leaving your "perspective' or vanishing point
Light doesn't "travel" Light works like sound waves,
The whole sky works like a clock
The Sun tells you the time of day  - seconds
The Moon tells you the time of month - minutes
The Stars tell you the time of year - hours
The constellations have never changed, we are not traveling through "space" at a "million billion" miles per hour, its a lie, its flat and stationary
Realise with your realeyes

Some people believe ancient aliens placed the moon in that exact position.

Everyone can write whatever they want on wikipedia. I was once hired to write for a local politicianon their page, i don't even know if it was real. but yeah whatever they wanna write there, its theirs.
So long as they don't interfere with the bitcoin going to skyrocket, I'd be just fine.

If you think that scientific wikipedia articles are false or manipulated then you can go to library or contact directly to astronomers and ask if those facts are true or false.

how can we be sure those books in the libraries and astronomers are telling the truth?
new discoveries even told us that we have to rewrite text books and history since there were actually 12 planets in the milky way not just nine.

For the sake of correcting misinformation...

I assume by 12 planets in the milky way, you mean there are 12 planets in our solar system?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planet

There are currently 8 planets in orbit around the sun

Pluto, along with other Kuiper belt objects, are no longer considered planets

There are currently over 3400 known planets in the milky way

Misinformation? how many of these planets have you seen with you own eyes? you have only seen a shiny light in the sky or doctored photos from NASA, so is what you are repeating like a parrot is just "Hearsay"

I have seen 5 of them without even using a telescope...

Both Venus and Jupiter glow very brightly at dusk for many months of the year

Mars, Saturn and Mercury can also easily be seen most of the year


You are talking about bullshit that was settled so long ago its not even funny

Vesta, Juno, Ceres and Pallas have not been considered planets for 200 years... Pluto has not been a planet for 10 years... don't bullshit

There is a big difference between a planet, and any old asteroid, etc floating around in orbit... a comet is a comet not a planet... an asteroid is an asteroid, not a planet... got it?

[Whtwabbit]

Yes it was decided long ago by a bunch of Jesuit and freemason "scientists"
Sattelites don't exist
The Sun and moon are inside our atomsphere
Big bang is a hoax as is Dinosaurs, and evolution, zero proof of any if you look hard enough through the lies

Its not "funny" (or you are feeling a bit angry at the suggestion) is  because you are experiencing cognitive dissonance

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cognitive_dissonance

In psychology, cognitive dissonance is the mental stress or discomfort experienced by an individual who holds two or more contradictory beliefs, ideas, or values at the same time, performs an action that is contradictory to one or more beliefs, ideas, or values, or is confronted by new information that conflicts with existing beliefs, ideas, or values.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychological_projection

Psychological projection is a theory in psychology in which humans defend themselves against their own unconscious impulses or qualities (both positive and negative) by denying their existence in themselves while attributing them to others. For example, a person who is habitually rude may constantly accuse other people of being rude. It incorporates blame shifting.

According to some research, the projection of one's unconscious qualities onto others is a common process in everyday life

oh there are more and so we are even mislead by these books. this just proves everything is a mess. This is no coincidence, this is a mess, thats what it is.  
history says there are 12 in the solar system. http://ancientvisitors.blogspot.com/2011/12/sumerian-12-planets.html

LOL.  You would think people on this forum would have just a slight idea of how science works.  I guess not.

BTW, Sumerians were using clay tablets for their record keeping, so I'd not pay any attention to what they said about astronomy or science in general.
They knew diddlysquat about astronomy, physics, math or science in general.  Science was not even a word back then.

yeah science is even not a word even today.
if its the astronomy that people wants they just have to use their eyes. there;s the sun, moon, stars and earth. that's just it. nothing more.

[Mayuyu48]

Wow this discussing really did take an ugly turn.
I call this a magnificent system that we live in, everything is their for a reason and everything has a role to play in the grand scheme.
Now I'm not particularly religious but I do believe that the system that has been developed has been made like a perfect design.
I call it science but I'm open to the concept of God, and maybe I don't believe him as well as the believers do, but I'm not speak ill about the idea.

Wow, your world is pretty simple.  Let me guess, the Earth is flat, right?  And God created everything 6000 years ago, right?

If you think science is not a word today, you definitely skipped few grades.

if that's how you would understand what i mean then thats it. i don't even think you are a kid.
but you know different people always think what they think no matter what. but i leave that to you.

What makes you think the Sumerians believed the solar system had 12 planets?

As far as I know, the Sumerian writings do not contain any mention of 12 planets... are you basing this assumption solely on this clay tablet?



How do you even know those are planets and not stars?

They certainly do not align to any planets in our solar system... they are just random dots

Their sizes and position are simply not a representation of planets in our solar system by any stretch of the imagination

[Gimpeline]

The moon and the sun do not seem to be the same size.
The distance to the moon varies from 356,500 km to 406,700 km, so some time the moon seems bigger than the sun, sometimes smaller and some times the same size
