Hi there,

So I have come to the conclusion, that what we understand as the beginning, rests on entering into a relationship. That relationship, under the right circumstances, leads to a stable interaction with the world - from the point of which, what is created in that beginning, can be multiplied (that is, to the world). In the past, this has been seen as an "either/or" relationship; if the relationship is not there, then you will die. But what we see in the act of creation, is actually simpler still! What we see in creation, is that the parents develop a relationship with the child, which encourages the child to grow.

So what is this "relationship"? How does it "encourage"? That relationship is "projection", one parent projects a child onto the other and the other maintains, until the child is able to grow. In other words, you were the child you were, because your parents extended a projection between them. By extending a projection between them, you were able to develop a will, that part of your mother's soul and part of your father's soul were able to house a new soul for. The soul was for the will, which was for the projection. You don't need to study this, this is just something you have, which enables you to do all the other things you do.

So your parents projected and you came to have a soul, and after you were born, you began to identify with the projection your parents had of you and your soul began to negotiate the will that was in you, because of that projection - this is what made you strong! It is being strong, that Jesus intended you to enjoy when He brought your parents together. Jesus knew that your parents would project, what they did, and that you would be created as a result. Your parents did not know how to project or handle projection, without the relationship that Jesus created in them, for the purpose of projecting you, one onto the other.

So it is that you were there with your parents, in the beginning, projecting. You were both the interaction of the projection with your parents and the meaning of the projection itself. You were able to reject the projection and become nothing, or you were able to add to the projection and become talented - this is the meaning of entering into a relationship with God, through projection. It is a "both/and" relationship. God means for you to be able to interact with Him, that way you become an "intelligent design" of which there are almost innumerable ways of being. This is the beginning of faith.

I hope you find this nourishing.

Thanks.

You can't have an egg without a chicken. Your vote choices don't allow for my answer.
CHICKEN
i don't read anything beyond the length of my phone.

Eggs have been around far longer than chickens have. Eggs go back hundreds of millions of years. Even wild chickens only evolved a couple of million years ago.

I can't tell if this is a joke.

Still, it takes a chicken first,. There has to be something to lay an egg first.

I don't understand the question gott?
My answer didn't work for your question.

You are supposed to grasp, that being a new chicken, is a relationship.

The relationship is projected on to the chicken womb, for which you need a couple of parents.

If you take the parents away the projection won't work, and if you take away the egg, the projection won't work - you have to have both.

God created flying creatures on day five.
20 And God said, “Let the water teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the vault of the sky.” 21 So God created the great creatures of the sea and every living thing with which the water teems and that moves about in it, according to their kinds, and every winged bird according to its kind. And God saw that it was good. 22 God blessed them and said, “Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the water in the seas, and let the birds increase on the earth.” Genesis 1:20-23

God created birds -chickens are birds- birds lay eggs to Be fruitful and increase in number as God told them to do.

Wjat???

Chickens don't have "wombs", they are birds not mammals.

If you take the parents away the projection won't work, and if you take away the egg, the projection won't work - you have to have both.

Not sure what all this "projection" is about. None of your OP made a lick of sense. It really doesn't look like "science". Looks more like it belongs in some sort of theology section.

Not buying it ... eggs have to be fertilized to reproduce ... even IF possible (hundreds of millions of years ago) .... it takes a parent/adult to incubate the egg and to protect it until it can survive on it's own.

So what came first? The male and female chicken.

For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee.
What did you say that for?
