After studying scriptures for 70 years and science for 60 years, I can guarantee beyond a shadow of a doubt that all of science and mathematics, including science that hasn't been discovered yet, is in scriptures. <br /><br />Since I am a retired Electronics Engineer who has worked in a scientific environment for close to 40 years I have proven to very prominent scientists what I am saying.<br /><br />If you think the the Torah is just literature, you are admitting to not studying the Torah (especially in Hebrew where most of the secrets are found).The Absolute Truthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14060786380470453883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-170726902683483449.post-63454957837064118802017-08-20T13:54:32.050+03:002017-08-20T13:54:32.050+03:00Torah reflects knowlage of broze-age/iron-age peop...Torah reflects knowlage of broze-age/iron-age people .. <br />It has nothing to do with what we call today science.<br />It is a literature.<br />Leave it there.Tricky Dickyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06405805445335741143noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-170726902683483449.post-87571155843795549982015-06-11T21:20:58.270+03:002015-06-11T21:20:58.270+03:00I am a big fan of Dr Schroeder.

That was a very special evening for me since it was one of the reasons that I started writing my book. Our discussion of Torah vs science was a real eye opener for me and led to many hundreds of hours of research on the subject. I am greatly indebted to Dr Schroeder for his brilliant insight and how much discovery followed for me.The Absolute Truthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14060786380470453883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-170726902683483449.post-73355482584938025002015-06-11T20:57:29.155+03:002015-06-11T20:57:29.155+03:00Another version and several other interesting arti...Another version and several other interesting articles:<br /><br />http://www.geraldschroeder.com/About.aspx<br /><br />The Age of the Universe<br />an article by Gerald Schroeder Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-170726902683483449.post-57236554444814811652015-06-11T06:36:47.940+03:002015-06-11T06:36:47.940+03:00I am a big fan of Rav Aryeh Kaplan, z"tl.

Comments between brackets:<br /><br />To answer your question, the Zohar (the mystical writings of the Torah) gives us a calculation of how long the 6 days of creation took. [The Reference is missing]<br /><br />The answer, according to the Torah, is that the universe is 15.34 billion years old. <br />[To be honest, this depends on a year being 365 days and some other stuff; there are other shitot] <br /><br />Science is presently at 13.7 billion years which means they are getting close.<br />[see foregoing, no basis for this putting down]<br /><br />Einstein calculated using the effects of relativity and concluded that the six 24 hour days of the creation took 15.75 billion years which is .41 billion years different from the Zohar.<br />[Stunning claim, reference is missing]<br /> <br />Yes the final answer is that the universe took exactly six 24 hour days to create and those six days took 15.34 billion years (I didn't say the answer would be easy to understand).<br />[I don't have a problem understanding this]<br /><br />This is not a simple nor a cut and dry answer, but I guarantee the Torah has all the answers, not science. There are many books written on the subject which will wow you. They talk about many scientific discoveries of the past 10, 50, 100 years and tell you exactly where to find that information in scriptures. The Rabbi’s knew all this information thousands of years ago. <br />[but the rabbis forgot]madaralhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12464817724312275528noreply@blogger.com
