Time is not linear (it just seems that way, because we're dumb), and so anyone looking for a "beginning" or "origin" is already barking up the wrong tree. A beginning and end is an old Zoroastrian myth, and before somebody cooked up that story most cultures believed in a natural universe of endless cycles.

do you think time is like a giant snowglobe and we are the snow flakes?
in a snowglobe that size (the size of the observable universe) one good shake would be felt for millenia to come. lets say the shaking of a big bang, for example... i dont know, someone said time wasnt linear and i was thinking "what isnt linear? the surface of a ball!" and went from there. im not an expert, i just pick up daddys old lab coat and play physicist sometimes.

Haha, well wouldn't that mean that we would constantly have to do something to make time work? Like in a snow globe, the snowflakes stop after some time, so when will time stop then?

Well abiogenesis basically says that, but that is for a different thread I have made many of them.
The dimensional time difference between those in the physical universe and those that are outside of it can be a hard concept to grasp, we see everything lineally. The movie Interstellar kind of showed how that could happen even within the physical universe.
The point that a divine being should have done something by now, he let things go on too long is invalid.
If that being had a universal mess on his hands, he could have snapped his fingers like the "Q" from Star Trek and fixed it instantly. But he wasn't going to take anybodies free choice away from them and he needed a long term solution.
He basically said, "this is a mess, but by the end of the week It will be cleaned up".
His week, not ours, and time is different in his dimension.

No it doesn't say that. YOU say that. Abiogenesis is the study of how life could have come together from its basic components. It does not say anywhere that life came out of nothing. This argument is beyond debunked and it's only parroted by creationists that haven't done any research into the subject in the least and look to push a dishonest anti science agenda. What's even sillier is hearing it from somebody that believes god came from nothing with no evidence.

Wrong, tons of research done, tons of posts read here at ATS, different conclusion reached, end of discussion because I won't waste key strokes of futility. You even know better Barcs, shame on you for pandering to the crowd with a statement like that.
Abiogenesis is the process by which a living organism arises naturally from non-living matter, as opposed to biogenesis, which is the creation of living organisms by other living organisms.

So basically its entirely possibly aliens manipulated our DNA.
Our brain power jumped significantly, out of nowhere evolutionarily speaking.
Fossil records have unexplained gaps
Prove it.
...and also have been manipulated by man.
Everything we seem to touch has some sort of lie in it. Whether it be the bible or fossil records.
We deny what doesn't fit in the little box.
They have fossils of Giant skulls and bones are sitting in the backroom of museum shelves
and even a Star Child skull exists which isn't a deformed skull as stated.
You have ancient sites all across the globe, built far beyond the capacity and standard hand tools and log quarrying of stones.
The explanations just don't fit.
Just look at the detail on some obelisks and say they didn't have machining.
Everything was done too precisely for hundreds and thousands of slaves dragging blocks on mud ramps or logs and haphazardly slapping them down.
We all know its completely logical to drag a 100 ton block up the side of the mountain just because its the most efficient way to build right.
Multiple written records not just the bible state a giant flood hit earth.
Noah could have very will been on a ship, however he wasn't the only one.
The fact that all our ancestory can be traced back only backs that theory.
Otherwise humanity would even be more diverse by now.
All through time before flight Native Americans, Aztecs, Mayans, China, Ancient Sumerians, Ancient India. Everyone of them says people came down and screwed with us.
I'll think I'll go with the people who viewed the stars each and everyday and night over a bunch of keyboard killers in this day and age.

Is non living matter, nothing?
It's a phrase concept, most understand what I am saying, semantics make this a non-issue
