3 doesn't follow. You'd have to add that God is the creator of the universe by definition as well. Otherwise God is just some immaterial being that exists, and there's no reason to believe he's required for the universe.

What are you talking about? First, 3 does not follow from any other premise--it is a premise. Second I included the reasons for 3 (from Occam's razor, PSR). Occam's razor because why would we posit two eternal beings (God and the universe) when only one is necessary and the Principle of Sufficient Reason gives us very good grounds to believe that anything that does not exist necessarily must have a reason for its existence.

The universe clearly exists, and God violates the PSR.

I thought Huggy was impervious to mockery, what the flying fuck did you say that he put you on ignore?

*SHE'S

Damn S key.

In many ways, FSM is anything we need it to be, Of all creeds, races, genders and yogurt flavors.  FSM appears in ways we know best so for me with a Scottish accent and playing the accordion and to you Welsh, female and possibly nude.

Considering I recently had a wisdom tooth out.... I could really do with some yogurt right now. Since yogurt doesn't 'urt.

Possibly?! Are you having a laugh?! More like DEFINITELY and sucking my redacted real real good until I redacted real real hard all over her pasta face.

I'm calling either brain damage or poe.

What angle? Like from under his ballsack? Never mind there are no other lights in the picture...

Why am I even discussing this with you? you think the guy that did the investigation failed to rule out the lights? His 'supernatural' would of been embarrassing if that was the case.

So please shut up and go sit down somewhere.

Basically, I told him his photo of ceiling lights...was a photo of ceiling lights.  However that feels cheap and I like to earn my keep so if anyone asks, Tell them I called him a sniveling twat.

Is that the one that says ‘all things need a reason, because. They do. Don’t ask why, they just do’?

I fucking love Schopenhauer. He's so deliciously depressing. He's like a cure for optimism.

Which, incidentally, is also one of my favorite songs:
