Is nature 'God' or 'God' nature?

Perfection, certainty, security are inferences of beings, and are thus 'contingent'. God, is a symbol and metaphor of 'ultimate' or 'perfect being'. The role of being in nature is being.

How do you describe nature without inference?

@tycho! @symbols! Enough, enough of monologue. You sound like the same person!
I agree that you two lads are very smart. I know this energy you have will take you places, benefit you, your family and our country.
Now, let us go back to the topic of discussion. We are talking about African culture and Western world viewpoints and values.
Let us analyze what has been happening in the new world today: Western world: - which has the highest standard of living, - which is the most advanced, - which has the highest level of education - which has the highest buildings - the most institutions - the most enjoyment - the most developed technologies - the most preferred way of life - the most beautiful houses - the most diversified market place - the pearl of the earth where everybody is being called to.
Now let me give you some statistics about the Western world: 1. Every single hour, 106 children are aborted (murdered), which means every three hours 350 children killed in the womb. Every 24 hrs, nearly 3000! Every week 21000. Every month 85000. Every year 1.3M children are killed in the womb. Little people who are 14 wks, 18wks, 30wks, they are even killing them when they are at 40 wks, can you imagine that?
2. Every 7 seconds a woman is raped. That means 10 every hour. That means 300 women are raped everyday
3. At any given time, there are 2.8M prostitutes walking their streets Whether in Holand, or in New York, or Woshington DC, or in France 2.8M women who prefer to be prostitutes even though they had the choice if they liked to be mothers or wives. But they choose to be prostitutes because there are more than 10M men who prefer them also to be prostitutes because that is their clients.
4. Every single day 350 young children are snatched off the streets and put into some kind of place where they will be used for child prostitution. Every day 350 children disappear and used as pedophiles. We read similar story from the Star today, right?
5. Every single 357 people shoot themselves in the head, take some pill, slit their rists. Every single day 357, they have no reason to live. This is the developed Western world.
There are more and more statistics, but I think you understand. They boast of having superior culture, but I don't think so.
But of course, they have an alternative values to Western culture.
And if they repent, and look at African culture or better still Islam, they can change themselves, purify themselves, and this new culture will solve the problems that they have.
