where did it come from?
I was reading some of the threads on "Theories / Philosophy on Life" and suddenly it came to my attention..

Where did it all come from?

Not just the Earth or the moon or the sun or any individual planet or star but everything, the entire universe or galaxy..or any particle or atom that makes up the universes and galaxies out there.

Theres probably not going to be an answer for this but i just thought id ask, any theories will be greatly appriciated

TO: forgottentruth

You are correct, (quote forgottentruth) 'There probably isn't going to be an answer...'

But, you're very discerning to ask an age-old question which has NO 'Known' answer. There is only conjecture.

I'm impressed by your inquisitiveness!

Though I could offer you numerous theories (conjecture), I'd rather you allow me to present an idea that is befitting your inquisitiveness. I do so with the utmost 'Respect' and friendly intent.

Therefore, I request you read the following quotes. The ideas and wisdoms presented by these authors have proven valuable to me, and maybe you'll enjoy some of them.

Once again, I'm impressed by your inquisitiveness and discerning character!

You have my apologies in advance if you're offended by my forwardness of offering you other 'food for thought'.

I'll continue my statement at the end of the quotes.

WOOLY BULLY:

FACT:
Human Breeders.
There is nothing more frightful than ignorance in action: 238,753 global births (after deaths) 'per DAY'. That's insane!!!


If you fail to 'properly research' VHEMT (this means hours, not minutes) – then the reality will be that you're doing a disservice to yourself, children, and Earth with its millions of creatures.


'Thank You' – forgottentruth for allowing me to share an idea with you.

'May your path be straight, and your stumbles few.'

Voluntary Human Extinction Movement (VHEMT)
(www.vhemt.org)

Welcome!
You can relate to VHEMT in one of three ways: Volunteer, Supporter, or Undecided.
(www.vhemt.org/join.htm)

VHEMT Volunteer:
'All of us should voluntarily refrain from reproducing further, thereby bringing about the eventual extinction of human beings.'

VHEMT Supporter:
'Intentional creation of one more of us by any of us is unjustifiable at this time. Extinction of the human species goes too far.'

Undecided:
'Stop trying to put words in my mouth. Maybe I'm a Volunteer, or maybe I'm a Supporter. I'd like to know more before I decide.'

**********************************************************************


'Quarrel not at all. No man resolved to make the most of himself, can spare time for personal contention. Still less can he afford to take all the consequences, including the vitiating of his temper, and the loss of self-control. Yield larger things to which you can show no more than equal right; and yield lesser ones, though clearly your own. Better give your path to a dog, than be bitten by him in contesting for the right. Even killing the dog would not cure the bite.'
- Abraham Lincoln

Your welcome, theres no need to be sorry, being offended doesnt really effect me much, i just find it as another veiw or another opinion, when in the ended my opinion of myself is the only one that truely matters

Also i liked some of the quotes, especialy 'Everyone thinks of changing the world, but no one thinks of changing himself.'
- Leo Tolstoy i find it to be very true.

like i said,your reply was greatly appriciated
