Knowing The Mind Of God, Part 1.

November 30, 2006

A very interesting article from Telegraph.co.uk about Professor Stephen Hawking’s notion that man must colonize beyond the earth in order for our human race to survive.

Makes for a thoughtful read; the only issue I had was where he was quoted from his bestselling book, “A Brief History of Time”…in it he said that we would one day “know the mind of God” when we unlock the basic set of laws that govern the universe.

Know the mind of God? Hardly. God’s mind is so vast, so complex, and so infinite that we can’t even begin to think that we would know one iota of why He does things in a certain way; or we could even brag out loud that we could imitate the power and might of God’s creation. When the talk turns in this direction, it’s frightening.

Professor Hawking–please let God be God. Don’t try to out-theorize or out-think Him. All that will do is cause you to wonder about things even more. No one…I repeat…NO ONE…can ever know the mind of God.

Except God.


Now the National Weather Service Says…

November 30, 2006

Heavy snow is on the way.

Here’s the forecast.

10-14 inches of snow. Yowza.

We’ll see. If it snows this much…I’ll definitely be sledding this weekend.


Ice Ice, Baby!

Yeah, I’m NOT Vanilla “I Used To Be A Rap Star” Ice…but I live in a place that might get socked with an ice storm this evening and into tomorrow morning.

The NWS says this; the folks at The Weather Channel say that.

Notice the Weather Channel also says we’re getting 4-6 inches of snow.

Nothng like highly varying forecasts to know exactly what the weather’s gonna do, huh?
