The Case for Theism

[Neo-Scholastic]

This is not a new story. Maybe try something a little fresher than the old "I used to be an atheist but then I saw the light!" chestnut.

Yes. As equally trite as 'I used to be religious until I understood reason."

I think that the evidence in favor of a non-created universe is stronger than the reverse.

I do not entirely disagree with this, if by universe you mean the whole of reality. I take it you consider the known physical universe to be the sum total of reality. The physical universe could extend into the past infinitely and into the future indefinitely while still being dependent upon something that itself does not depend on anything else for its existence.

...everything they do discover that someone like you has claimed is the work of one god or another, do you know what the common factor is? When they find the answer, the real one, no god was involved.

Perhaps every gain in scientific understanding supports the idea that the whole of reality includes a non-contingent immaterial agent involved in all aspects of the natural world. At least that's how I see it.
