God created everything that we do not yet understand.

Electricity used to be "God's will" -- now it's commonplace. A generation
ago showing a live image of someone world-wide would have been considered
a
miracle -- now you can see Britney Spears on a stupid awards show,
anywhere
in the world.

Why, flight itself would have been considered the work of God 101 years
ago -- now we recreate it at will, daily.

So has God created everything that we do not yet understand, or is it just
a
matter of time before we understand *everything*?


You answered your question with your examples. At some point we will
understand everything. Genetic engineering will soon allow us to "create
man in his own image." And that is just the start.

Of course, even when something is understood and explainable, the
"fanatics" will not accept
it. They would rather live in a fantasy world.

What is this "it" the "fanatics" will not accept?

I guess the answer to that depends on what religion the fanatics belong to.
Off the top of my head we have evolution for the Christians and equality of
the sexes for the Moslems.

I've been waiting for this thread to worm its way around to Star Trek
V - The Final Frontier (1989)

Come on Kirk. Does God really *need* a Starship?? Duh!

Remember the movie rule:
2, 4, 6 .....Good flick
1,3,5 .......Bad flick

Then you really should quit flying

Oh, man. People who don't believe God controls their actions shouldn'
fly? You're starting to sound a little creepy

You misunderstand. If Jay is afraid to share the air with people who give God a significant place in their lives, then he should quit flying because I know the two he ran into aren't the only ones.

Jay,

So has God created everything that we do not yet understand, or is it just a

There are more options ;-)

As I said, "God" is just another, im my opinion sheepish, way to say "I don't
know".

Earl,

understand everything. Genetic engineering will soon allow us to "create
man in his own image." And that is just the start.


Well, putting man in a central role like that lead to the belief of the sun
circling the earth, too. Why would we soon understand anything? Nothing is
even remotely supporting that statement. And why should we, too?

Happy,

Unless you don't believe that the speed of light is a constant in vacuo.


What's there not to believe? Anyone using GPS cannot deny Einstein - it
wouldn't work without relativity.

Robert,

I'm still looking for good freeware W&B and E6B calculators for Pocket
PC 2002. Anyone know of any?


www.pocketfms.com - what you want AND a full moving map, flight planning
tool for PC and PocketPC. Great!

Flying here is still feasible and the twr people speak English.

So is flying just "feasible"? Or is it actually "affordable"?

it depends on the viewpoint. For Europeans it becomes cheaper every day to
fly to the US as the exchange rate is in our (the European consumers)
favour (for sure not good for our export quota). For Americans it has
become more expensive to come to Europe.

about 2 years ago I bought 80 US cent for 1 Euro, today I buy about 1.20
USD for 1 Euro. So this is ~ a 40% shift.

So it was God who created the FAA?
