> dhw: [i]I presume by “weird philosophic thinking of scientists” you only mean those who do not share your theistic ideas. To restore the balance, let me repeat the part of my post you left out: “On the other hand, Bertrand Russell's line [concerning anthropocentric theism]: “All such philosophies spring from self-importance, and are best corrected by a little astronomy”] is a wonderful summing-up of my point about the immensity of the universe as a major obstacle to belief in a universal mind controlling it all - let alone manipulating it for the sake of us humans.”[/i] - DAVID: [i]Russell is simply saying the universe which God created in too immense for Him to handle. Circular rubbish.[/i] - David Turell is simply saying that God created the universe for the purpose of producing humans, and therefore the billions of solar systems, exploding supernovae, colliding black holes must be part of God's purpose of producing humans (though he doesn't know how). Everybody is running around in circles.
