Thoery A: that matter is eternal and infinite, matter cannot be destroyed or completely removed fromexistence, matter can only change form, decay or split to become a differen from of matter. just as fire burns a piece of wood, it is separating carbons from oxygen and other elements stored within the matter that wood is made of.

Theory B: Matter that is smaller requires "purer eyes" to see (i'm thinking of microscopes and hughe magnets in particle accelerators that provide an extreme magnification allowing us to detect Quarks and Leptons. because our "unrefined" eyes definitely cannot see it)

Very good. I have heard people talk about subtle matter and spiritual eyes before but I don’t think I have heard anyone make the connection between “purer eyes” and particle accelerators. It really is a different way of seeing. Well done.

Thank you all for the wonderul complements. It's something i have been meaning to say for a while.

I reall ylove science and the more i delve into scientific research and strudies the more it helps me understand the gospel and vice versa, the more i delve into Gospel doctrines i seem to understand science a bit more.

while i think that science is flawed because all science is theory, i think it truely has merit when trying to discover the true tanture of existence.

God is intelligence, he is more intelligent than us all, he gives us bits and pieces here and there as we are ready to understand and accept them line upon line, precept on precept in both the religious aspect and the scientific.

There's no evidence that this has ever happened or will ever happen.

A fish will never become a frog, given an infinite amount of time.
