Fine-Tuning the Ratio of Small to Large Stars

By Guest Writer,  Dr. Hugh Ross

For decades, astronomers have assumed that the ratio of small-mass stars to high-mass stars observed in our Milky Way Galaxy (MWG) is a universal constant for all galaxies. A growing body of data, however, now challenges that assumption.

Astronomers refer to this ratio as the stellar initial mass function (IMF). The IMF is important for establishing whether a galaxy could possibly host life since it determines the galaxy’s chemical enrichment history. High-mass stars produce more elements that are heavier than helium and only high-mass stars produce elements heavier than iron. Life, especially advanced life, requires that the abundance of elements in the periodic table be available at specified levels.

Furthermore, for planetary systems, the abundance of elements heavier than helium is strongly correlated with the size and number of asteroid and comet belts. As I explained in a previous Today’s New Reason to Believe article, for advanced life to be possible on a planet, the number, sizes, and locations of asteroid and comet belts in its planetary system must be fine-tuned. Too many high-mass stars would mean that the planet on which advanced life could conceivably exist would be buffeted by destructive gravitational perturbations exerted by the high-mass stars.

The latest and most potent challenge to the IMF being a universal constant for all galaxies comes from an analysis by the Calar Alto Legacy Integral Field Array (CALIFA) survey team.1 The CALIFA survey is an integral field spectral survey of 600 nearby galaxies. The study is designed to investigate how galaxies form and evolve over the history of the universe.

The CALIFA team performed detailed observations of 24 early-type galaxies characterized by old stellar populations where only stars less massive than the Sun are still burning. Analysis of these observations showed that the IMF not only varies from galaxy to galaxy but also varies within each galaxy. The IMF depends strongly on distance from the center of each galaxy and on the age of the galaxy. These characteristics led the CALIFA team to conclude that the local abundance of elements heavier than helium is a major factor in determining the IMF.

The variations in the IMF noted by the CALIFA team yield more evidence for fine-tuning design in the position of a planet capable of sustaining advanced life. Such a planet must reside in an environment with the just-right IMF, which implies that it must reside in the just-right position within a galaxy that possesses the just-right mean IMF.

The Mind Is Always Making Whole Uspace times Vspace Giving Q; Laws of God

Posted on July 30, 2015 by Will Myers

by Will Myers

A short capitulation of the above title is UspVsp=Q; the way God made things to work, revealing to us the eternal invisible Godhead; for man is now without an excuse. We are always challenged; therefore, the universal form repeats constantly. The Usp and Vsp are potentialities in the Heavens and in the Earth. The Uspace is the Potentiality of all God laws with Jesus, the Son, being the Spirit, the fullness of the laws, tangible and intangible. The human mind exist in the state of UspVsp=Q, and makes calculations at the rate of 400 billion executions per second with the form varying in magnitudes and settings while harmonizing and balancing the forms of UspVsp=Q in order to maintain the equality in all instants and about all situations. The equality attracts knowledge that supports the equality. From this we get the subset knowledge of science and mathematics, the language of science.

Jesus Who was born in the flesh is 100% man with all of the temptations as any other human, and possessed all of the emotions; laughter, tears from crying. and was exposed to UspVsp=Q.

Jesus Who possessed God’s Holy Spirit is 100% God in this discipline.  Jesus overcame the world because the laws [Q] was created though Him [Uspace].

God’s Spirit Of Truth proceeds from God in the world [Uspace], and we are exposed to UspVsp as we harmonize and balance to see the laws [Q]. The Spirit of Truth tells of things to come, and does not speak of Himself, but only what He hears from the Father. Therefore, the Spirit of Truth makes choices from all of the potential nexuses [Vspace] in the world; He is also our guide in life.

God sent a Comforter that resides inside of all believers in the name of Jesus, The Son Of God; it is part of our conscience. The Comforter tells of things to come informing us of all nexus in our lives.

Things that are seen are temporary; things not seen is eternal and the creator (Uspace) of things seen. We can know about the things not seen by the way things are made. We have seen Jesus; therefore, we know Usp, and have observed UspVsp giving Q, the form that is in the Spirit Of Truth.

As we make observations and seen patterns than we learn how a thing is made even unto the sun raising each morning. Having UspVsp=Q as being the form we have observed the sun rising each morning (Q); we know the nexus (Vsp) in this world; therefore, Uspace is the mind.

Isaiah 28:16
So this is what the Sovereign Lord says: “See, I lay a stone in Zion [meaning in the essence of things], a tested stone, a precious cornerstone for a sure foundation; the one who relies on it will never be stricken with panic.
Hebrews 1:2
but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom also he made the universe.
Romans 1:20
For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.
Psalm 19:1
[ Psalm 19 ] [ For the director of music. A psalm of David. ] The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the work of his hands.

Human Dreams Comes True In The Son Of God

Posted on July 29, 2015 by Will Myers

by Will Myers

There is a void in one’s life when God is not in their equation of life. We are wired by God for love; this is our norm; all others are toxic to our minds. We have a capacity that only God can fill with His Eternal-ness while eternal states are not present in our physical world. Without God in your life the spirit of error is intrinsic to your beliefs without anything to cleanse the corruption. God’s Spirit Of Truth Who is Christ Jesus produces good fruits with eternal qualities. Continue reading →

Man Is Never Separated From The Thoughts Of God

Posted on July 28, 2015 by Will Myers
by Will Myers
God has always imposed on man, and man has always imposed on God in thoughts. God’s hand has gently guided man into thoughts that God has already created (Uspace imposing on Vspace = Q, the laws).  The laws of God already exist in its totality, and this is the great imposition. We must continue to discover the laws as man has been doing.  Man has become aware of God’s spiritual laws even unto knowing God through His Son, Jesus Christ. God created all for His Son and by His Son (Uspace; potentiality of God’s Righteousness and Perfection; the stone that God laid in the essence of things.)
The human mind always exist in the future. It’s the potentialities of all of the nexuses (Vspace) in this universe in which the mind followers, even if referring to past events for they are a nexus with future purpose. Precepts and concepts develop in our minds as we go through the process of life (UspVsp=Q; the way God made things to work). We are continually exposed to a toy space, potentialities of God’s reality.
Our laws are physical and spiritual, tangibles and intangibles. The identity between the physical laws and the spiritual laws is the process of UspVsp; there is Spirit to spirit and flesh to flesh with manifestations from Uspace. The Son of God possesses God’s Holy Spirit; the mind of Uspace. By the way things are made (Usp imposing on Vsp) we can even know the Godhead. The Son of God who has God’s Holy Spirit is the fulfillment of the laws, and Jesus is the Life and the way. We are filled with the laws until one can see the Son, and repent while accepting Him as our true Self.
Deuteronomy 8:3
He humbled you, causing you to hunger and then feeding you with manna, which neither you nor your ancestors had known, to teach you that man does not live on bread alone but on every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord.
Psalm 40:3
He put a new song in my mouth, a hymn of praise to our God. Many will see and fear the Lord and put their trust in him.

Proverbs 30:5; “Every word of God is flawless; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him.”

Matthew 4:4
Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.’”
Meditate on His Word day and night.

THE POWER of THE BRAIN AND QUANTUM BIOLOGY

Posted on July 27, 2015 by Will Myers

Written by Guest Writer,  Dr. Caroline Leaf

From the pioneers of the development of the computer such as Alan Turin [1] to Hollywood films[2], artificial intelligence in medicine [3], contests between computers and humans [4] and the more recent singularity movement led by Ray Kurzweil [5], the notion that artificial intelligence would soon become more powerful than the human brain has captured the public imagination. Since Hal the computer in ‘2001, A Space Odyssey’ [6] we have imagined robots and computers as eventually becoming sentient beings- a logical conclusion of a materialist mindset that asserts that the mind (soul) only emerges from complicated brain computation [7]. In contrast the Bible states that the soul was created when God breathed His Spirit into a human formed from physical dust (Genesis 2:7). Interestingly, recent scientific research is pointing to the fact that a world taken over by super-intelligent sentient robot beings is actually a total fantasy – the brain is much more powerful than we once thought by many orders of magnitude [8].

The position of the status quo has been that information is processed by weighted connections (synapses) or nodes [9]. Therefore it seemed it was possible to reproduce brain function using computer simulation. A human brain was estimated to operate at 10^9 bits per second at the synaptic level, however there is now evidence of information processing taking place at the microtubular level inside the cell [8]. Microtubules were once thought to be just cell scaffolding – now it is clear they form the nervous system of the cell. After all, single-celled animals which do not have synapses have been shown to have intelligence [10]. Dendrites, which are the branches of single nerve cells (neurons), are now been compared to mini-computers rather than binary switches, as once thought [11]. Taken together, therefore, a whole human brain can conceivably operate at 10^27 bits per second [8]. That is more processing power than all the computers in the world put together [8][12]. Therefore it is inconceivable that attempts to simulate the Human Brian, like the epic Billion Euro Human Brain Project [13], a progression of Henry Markram’s Blue Brain Project [14], will ultimately succeed. However such projects will yield and has already yielded useful information about brain structure and function that can be applied to medical informatics [15] as well as computer technology [16].

Additionally there is also evidence that the brain is operating at the quantum level in the microtubules [17]. Interestingly biological processes such as photosynthesis, bird navigation and olfaction (odor detection) have been shown to take advantage of quantum effects such as superposition as proposed by as Heisenberg’s uncertainty principle [18]. It seems biological process are tapping into the ‘spooky’ (as described by Einstein [19] world of quantum entanglement, where information transfer is not limited time or location. A whole new discipline termed ‘Quantum Biology’ is emerging. It is therefore conceivable that more biological processes operate at a quantum level. The brain actually may be acting like a quantum computer at the microtubular level as proposed by Stuart Hameroff and Sir Roger Penrose’s Orch-OR Theory [17]. In fact there is growing experimental evidence for this theory which is also implying that the brain is processing information using fractal resonance frequencies not just electrical action potentials- akin to songs within songs in an orchestral arrangement [20].

We are truly ‘fearfully and wonderfully made’ (Psalm 139:14). The above-mentioned research is showing that the brain is much more powerful, functioning at a more profound manner than was once thought. This surely points to the infinitely powerful and innovative Mind of The Creator, The God of the whole Universe described in the His Living Word, the Bible.

Quantum Mechanics and the Nature of Reality

Posted on July 20, 2015 by Will Myers
July 20, 2015
By Dr. Jeff Zweerink

As Erwin Schrödinger cruises down the highway, a patrol officer pulls him over for a suspicious-looking car. The officer strolls up to Schrödinger’s open window and asks for his license and registration and whether the Nobel laureate will allow a search of his trunk. Schrödinger pops the trunk and the officer looks around. Approaching the window again he asks, “Are you aware you have a dead cat in your trunk?” Angrily, Schrödinger replies, “Well, I do now!”

This joke refers to the eminent physicist Erwin Schrödinger’s famous thought experiment involving a cat that exemplifies the oddity of quantum mechanics. In the thought experiment, a box contains a cat and a vial of poison that a radioactive atom will trigger upon decaying. Because the radioactive decay is a quantum event, after one hour the atom will be an equal mixture of a decayed state and an undecayed state. According to some interpretations of quantum mechanics, the cat also exists in a mixture of dead and alive states. The really interesting aspect comes in trying to determine the correct interpretation of quantum mechanics.

Some interpretations argue that the mathematical tools used to do quantum calculations, namely the wavefunction ψ, reflect the actual reality of the world and that the cat exists simultaneously in a mixture of disparate states. Others contend that the wavefunction represents our lack of knowledge; the cat is either dead or alive but we won’t know the proper state until we open the box. Even after 100 years of studying quantum mechanics, no experiments give a clear answer on the proper class of interpretations, although recent research tends to favor the “wavefunction-as-reality” models.

A third class of models offers a more radical solution based on the existence of a multiverse. These models propose that a repulsive force exists between particles in each of the clones in parallel universes. This repulsive force causes ripples to propagate through all the parallel universes, leading to the weird effects seen in quantum experiments. Computer simulations with 41 such universes reproduce many of these “quantum” effects, including those of the iconic double-slit experiment, and the level of agreement increases with the number of parallel worlds. This suggests the intriguing possibility that future research may determine the number of parallel worlds in the multiverse.1

At this point no one knows the final answer to the question, what is the ultimate nature of reality? Maybe things really exist simultaneously in different states or maybe not. Perhaps quantum effects simply result from interacting multiverses. The very nature of the question assumes an objective physical reality, governed by physical laws, that exhibits an intelligible regularity. Furthermore, this physical reality must not be divine (and thus an object of worship) but it must be good (and thus worthy of study). Finally, to question the ultimate nature of reality requires that the human mind cancomprehend all these things. Only the Christian worldview anchors all these necessary requirements for asking questions about the nature of reality. The fact that scientists consider it important to ask such questions, and diligently seek answers, points to the existence of an Intelligence behind the universe.

Mind Of Man

Posted on July 19, 2015 by Will Myers

By Will Myers

The nature of man has not changed since the gathering of civilization; the beast has only been pacified from its ravenous behavior which is only 9 meals away as stated by prominent psychiatrists. He who calms the beast rules the world. The world is in constant turmoil driven by power hunger men. The Word of God now can be understood by common man that it applies on a cosmic scale.

The mind of man is distracted tumultuously, and seeks God less and less. He is at a point that he desires to be god, and is now rejecting any precept of God. Intolerance of God is leading man toward destruction due to his decaying moral values. Man is countering and staving off destruction by the use of deception on the wholesale level.

Man is approaching the completion of a one world government; one that can provide the basic necessities for all human, but this comes with a demand of conformity to their ideology.

There is a hidden agenda that most people are not aware when it comes to the instituting of the one world government; its the dossiers on practical every person on Earth. The kicker is that there is a passive dossier and there is an active dossier; one that acts to influence an individual or punish an individual coercing the individual to conform to their ideology and function for the best of their government. The political means to dissent from their government shall become farcical.

The fictional character, Big Brother, is becoming real. The advancement in technology allows authorities the ability to peer through the windows of your bedroom. Mind reading is only 30 years into the future when it shall come into fruition. There are wars in the first heaven fighting for a piece of your mind.

People are turning from God and taking to the new age philosophy which has been developed to serve the one world government. It has become Anti-God as predicted in the bible which is the savior of human freedoms and liberties, and provides a flatform to stand for these desirables or else an individual can not plead for justice against the crowd.

The social machinery to actively monitor each individual in our society exist at present. We are merely living unto its implementation process.

Once we begin to look at the present mind games in the world today it readily begin to look like what’s in the bible who predicts the outcomes of interacting entities is true. The inspired Word of God predicted the coming of the one world government among many other things of cosmic proportions.

EPHESIANS 6:12; “For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.”

Can Science Identify the Intelligent Designer?

Posted on July 16, 2015 by Will Myers
July 16, 2015
By Dr. Fazale Rana

We live in a world that values tolerance and religious pluralism. Because of this widespread attitude, perhaps it’s not surprising that one of the questions I’m most often asked by non-Christian academics relates to the identity of the Designer. They want to know, how does the scientific case for intelligent design specifically identify the God of the Bible as the Designer?

I answer this question differently than many of my friends associated with the Intelligent Design (ID) Movement. They argue that scientific inquiry cannot determine the Designer’s identity. Christian ID proponents maintain that there are nonscientific reasons why they believe that the biblical God is the Designer, but they insist that the Designer’s identity is not a question science can address.

I respectfully disagree. I think that science has the wherewithal to provide sufficient clues that allow us to infer the Designer’s identity. To appreciate why I would adopt this position, I need to first explain why intelligent design has a place in science.

Intelligent Design Is Part of the Construct of Science

Because of the influence of methodological naturalism (the philosophical position that scientific explanations must be restricted to natural processes), many people assert that intelligent design lies beyond the bounds of science. Yet a number of scientific disciplines are predicated on scientists’ ability to detect the activity of intelligent agents and distinguish that activity from natural processes. For example, forensic scientists can determine whether or not an individual died as the result of natural processes, by accident, or by the intentional action of another person—an intelligent agent. Anthropologists can examine pieces of rock and determine whether the stones were intentionally fabricated into a tool by a hominid (such as Neanderthals) or merely shaped by natural processes. In the quest to identify alien civilizations, researchers at SETI monitor electromagnetic radiation emanating from distant stars looking for signatures that bear the hallmark of intelligent agency. In the early 1970s, Leslie Orgel and Francis Crick proposed directed panspermia to explain the origin of life on Earth, and they even suggested ways to scientifically test this idea.

Science does have the toolkit to detect the work of an intelligent designer and distinguish it from natural causes and events. If so, then why can’t scientific inquiry determine if an intelligent designer played a role in the origin, history, and design of life and the universe? It seems to me that it can, and I would argue that it has.

Science, not only possesses the capacity to detect the work of intelligent agency, it also has the means to provide insight about the agent’s characteristics. Crime scene investigators can determine if a murderer was left-handed or right-handed, the probable height of the culprit, etc. Anthropologists can glean a tremendous amount about the biology and cognitive ability of hominids by examining the tools they made. If SETI scientists were to detect a signal that emanated from an alien civilization, no doubt they could discern something about the aliens that sent it by analyzing the signal’s properties and studying the star system that generated the signal.

The Scientific Case for God’s Existence and the Identity of the Designer

So, what can we infer about the identity of the Intelligent Designer from science? A handful of scientific insights provide some important clues.

Astronomers have learned that the universe had a beginning. This means that it must have a cause, and that this cause exists outside the universe itself. To put it another way, a transcendent cause brought the universe into existence. (For many people, this knowledge provides evidence for God’s existence.) If we take the transcendent cause to be the Intelligent Designer, then the Designer must reside beyond the universe and must be powerful enough to cause the universe (Genesis 1:1). Astronomers also believe that time began when our universe began, suggesting that the Intelligent Designer must operate outside the confines of time (Psalm 90:2; Isaiah 40:28).

Astronomers and astrophysicists have learned that the fundamental parameters, constants, and characteristics that define the universe must assume precise values for life to exist. This fine-tuning suggests that the universe was designed for a purpose. (Again, many people view the fine-tuning of the universe as further evidence for God’s existence.) Design and purpose are qualities that derive from a Mind. This insight about the fine-tuning of the universe means that the Intelligent Designer must have personality (Job 38–41).

The constancy of the laws of nature and the orderliness of the universe indicate that the Designer is not capricious. Instead, the Agent responsible for the universe appears to be unwavering and unchanging (James 1:17; Malachi 3:6; Hebrews 13:8).

The repeated occurrence of the same designs throughout biology and the universal nature of biochemical systems imply that a single Designer produced life, not an ensemble of designers (1 Corinthians 8:6).

Advances in our understanding of biochemical systems revitalize William Paley’s watchmaker argument for God’s existence. The remarkable similarities between the architecture and operation of biochemical systems and human designs indicate that the cell’s chemical systems are the work of a Mind. This observation also suggests that a resonance exists between the mind of human designers and the Intelligent Designer. To put it another way, human beings appear to be made in the image of the Intelligent Designer (Genesis 1:26–27).

The beauty on display throughout the universe and the marvelously fascinating creatures that make up the biological realm demonstrate that the Designer possesses an artist’s flair and playfulness. The Intelligent Agent responsible for life seemingly takes great delight in what He has made (Genesis 1:31a; Psalm 104:26).

There are many such evidences, but I believe that this short list provides us with sufficient insight about the Designer’s qualities that we could reasonably conclude that the Intelligent Designer is most likely the God of the Bible.

But a skeptic might raise the question about so-called bad designs in nature. What about all the pain and suffering? Do these features of nature mean that the Intelligent Designer is malevolent? Do they imply that the Intelligent Designer is incompetent? Not necessarily. It is hard to argue that the Creator who could bring the universe into existence lacks competence. And when we examine supposed bad designs more carefully, we often find compelling reasons to view the “bad” designs as actually good designs. Junk DNA has become the quintessential case in point.

As for pain and suffering in the world, a number of philosophers have pointed out that there may be good reasons why the Intelligent Designer would create a world where pain and suffering exist. And science provides some clues as to what those reasons might be.

It is remarkable to me how strong the scientific case is for intelligent design. As a Christian, I don’t find it all surprising that the scientific evidence directs us to the God of the Bible. After all, Scripture teaches that God has revealed Himself to us through the creation.

Heaven (Usp) Imposes Its Grace On Us Constantly (UspVsp)

Posted on July 10, 2015 by Will Myers
   Written by Will Myers
Psalm 19:1

The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.

Psalm 50:6

And the heavens shall declare his righteousness: for God is judge himself.Selah.

Psalm 97:6
The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory.

There has never been a moment since creation that God’s Spirit wasn’t impressing on the world; guiding and influencing all the affairs of men. The potentiality (Usp) causes all things to come into being and go out of being. All things has already existed in the mind of God; while awaiting to materialize in its time to become known to man. Man is in time and learns of things of time, and can manipulate things in time. This is man imposing on God.

From the wonderment of men and the drive due to necessity knowledge has been accrued (Toyspace from the true God reality) as determined by Uspace, the One Governing Potentiality. With Vspace representing the potentiality of all nexus in the universe man had began to define states and predict their future behavior. At a point in time man asked where did all things come from? We know that states and things to exist is UspVsp=Q;  Q being all laws and things; the tangibles and the intangibles. They come into being and go out of being as determined by Uspace, the righteousness and perfection that God placed in the essence of things. We view and receive from the Spirit of Truth that proceeds from God in the world.

God and man can reason together concerning things in time during their great imposition. God and man can impose on each other with love.

Isaiah 1:18
Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.
Isaiah 28:16
Therefore thus saith the Lord God, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste. (Zion mean “in the essence of thing”)

James 3:17-18

New International Version

But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere. Peacemakers who sow in peace reap a harvest of righteousness.

Romans 1:20King James Version (KJV)

20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

Matthew 24:35 KJV

Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

Jesus is the Potentiality (Usp) of all creation; the Life and fulfillment of the law (UspVsp=Q); tangibles and intangibles; spiritual and physical (can be thought as the way God made things to work). Every point in our mind follows such form. All of the heavens follows such form from creation. The more man dig for the universal truth, the more man dig toward the Absolute God. All of our thoughts are entangled with thoughts of God, our Creator.
