Funnily that makes sense to me... The power of belief makes all the reasoning unimportant provided your believing the right thing. Since realising that time probably moves backwards I have started to believe that god made everything. I'm just trying to work out how he did it... and who this God...
well he said that from the outside he was able to recognise that time worked backwards, so, the beginning would actually refer to what we usually consider to be the end.....
creation... hmmm... i think he said that everything is a manifestation of the mind as it tries to make sense of...
Yeah I defo don't think we should take it literally, but the problems between genesis and ToE are one of the biggest things that makes people disregard the lessons in the bible. I have lots of respect for what Buddha taught, and if this is right, that time works backwards, (which was fundamental...
If time works backwards... we would make a cake exist in the beginning, then after making the cake, the physical process which is required for the cake to exist would have manifested

as I think about it... Buddha also says that in the last phase of any beings development within the physical world they become perfect beings, innocent, void of sin... Buddha said they reached enlightenment and left the physical realms. If that's the case, and time works backwards, then surely...
I think you miss my point... man need not have been there at what we perceive to be the beginning. At any given point god could have created a man and then what we perceive as the past would have manifested.
Well I reckon that the mind works in reverse. All things that we know to physically exist is actually just the mind making sense of the things that have affected it. For instance... The sun would be the way that the mind makes sense of the god which created everything. This big powerful being...
I reckon jesus could have been in a deep state of meditation when he was jabbed by that spear. I doubt that he had died as fast as they said that he had, but who knows... If he was in a deep state of meditation it would explain the missing body...
Apparently, whilst in a very deep state of meditation, Buddha was able to step outside of time itself, he stepped outside change. He then realised that way we perceive the passage of time is actually completely wrong. He said that time actually works in reverse to the way that we would expect...
