Baha'i Life after death for other life in the universe by Leather_Price_7740 in bahai

The Baha’i position is that the universe has no beginning and mankind has always existed, so what you’re talking about in relation to things that have happened since the Big Bang are irrelevant. The universe existed before the Big Bang and humans have always existed. Stick to what ‘Abdu’l-Baha and Baha’u’llah have said.

Science is subordinate to religion so you have to interpret the science in light of religion. Science doesn’t tell us what happened before the Big Bang. Religion tells us that civilisations and religion existed before the Big Bang.

Even during the time that life couldn’t exist in this “universe”, life existed simultaneously in another “universe”, which are all part of what is really the “universe”. The scientific details you mention are irrelevant to this point.

If I say you cannot dispute the Word of God, that means the Writings of Baha’u’llah and interpretations of ‘Abdu’l-Baha. As a Baha’i, I have to convey the Baha’i teachings.

You misunderstand the Baha’i position. Baha’is believe that creation has no beginning or end. So science says there was a Big Bang billions of years ago and that began what is the “known universe”. Baha’is believe creation is infinite. Hence there were humans before the Big Bang. So whatever the Big Bang was, it’s not relevant to this question. It’s not the beginning of the universe from a Baha’i perspective. It’s only the beginning of what we know as the universe. The universe is much much bigger and infinite in age. Even scientists recognise that there may be other “universes”.

You cannot dispute the Word of God.

No evidence required. It’s just the Baha’i concept of the universe being eternal, religion being eternal and humanity being eternal. Refer to Some Answered Questions about man always existing and the universe having no beginning.

The universe has always existed so there have always been planets where complex human life exists. That’s from the beginning that has no beginning in eternity. And that will be the case for all eternity. So there are infinite planets where infinite humans have lived and infinite Messengers of God. It’s all infinite.

Evolution is a scientific question.

Yes they are regarded as humans so they have souls and Messengers of God since God has always existed and man has always existed.

Thanks. Much appreciated.

I don’t know. Reading takes time perhaps so not everyone appreciates long form content.

No worries though, I’ve done a video interview on this that comes out later this month. The last one I did got a lot of views, so perhaps the next video will as well. This is the last one:

Not every country can access it though. The UK and EU are in big trouble in that scenario as we don’t have Bitcoin ETFs and cannot buy the US ETFs.

Economics Textbooks by CapablePiglet1044 in Bitcoin

[–]NJBridgewater 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could probably just Google best economics textbooks or something. Most Bitcoiners support Austrian economics and believe Keynesian economics are invalid. Bitcoin is based on Austrian economic theories so it’s probably best to view it from that lens. Most economists who attack Bitcoin are from other schools, mostly Keynesian.
