This argument is purely based on reason and contemporary science.

And Muslims make the same statement about their mythology.

Hello! Big Grin

Uhm.. I'd disagree with both those ides/statements/comments.

So, first of all you can not 'Reason' things into existence.

You can use your ability to reason to work through all the infromaton/data/evidence you have access to and even extrapolate onwares from there. But 'Just' reasoning things? Pretty much the same as trying to push clouds with your mind.

Contemporary science isn't really into 'Non physical' things.

Cheers! Big Grin

Not at work.

What science, of any sort, concludes that the magic sky fairy is masculine?

Therefore, there wouldn't be a "thinking" or "thought" process prior to any of His actions.

How can an incorporeal entity interact with a real universe?

My emphasis.

Contemporary science? I take it you can back this up.

First, where did I claim "things can be reasoned into existence"? Surely, I never wrote that. Are you purposely being dishonest? I was asked how I know. Reasoning and science is how we come to know lots of things. Do you disagree?

I'm beginning to think many of you didn't completely read or understand my first post. Contemporary science doesn't deal with the non-physical, true, but I never claimed that it did. It does however point to a past-finite universe and that's important for the "inference to the best explanation" argument that I've outlined for the existence of God.

I recommend that you go back and re-read my first post.

Is this contemporary science anything like fairy tale science?
