I would be interested in your theory why the Supreme Being created such an enormous universe with such a number of stars and planets. What is He using them for?
Hi weak, I wish I knew how to seperate your quotes, I'll just use your numbers and hope you understand:
1. The only Supreme Being. He actually has no name but Christian's call Him God.
2. I didn't go to your link but I think everyone here knows by now that I am a Christian.
3. My theory is that the universe is infinite and was prepared for use by all of God's creatures for all eternity. I think that creation in the universe will never stop. I also believe there are other elements to the universe (I'm not smart enought to know what to call them) such as has been proposed in the string theory.
1. It appears that you think there is only one Supreme Being. Is this being also the inspiration for Allah and Zeus and all the others? I'm not sure what this is called?
2. Please go and read http://www.talkorigins.org/faqs/wic.html because Christians are fighting among themselves which kind of creationist they are so it's important you identify yourself with one kind.
3. So you believe that we are not alone in the universe but that it is full of Gods different creatures? What one might call aliens? Do you think they are here? If they exist I wonder which religions they have.

I am of the opinion that the universe was created by intelligent design. That a Supreme Being created the universe out of nothing.
I would like to hear your opinions.
You are making a claim but have not supported it. You need to support your claim before expecting others to comment on it.
I supported it in other repsponses.
I've read the entire thread, and have found nothing that supports your claim. Perhaps you could be more specific.

"In short, Meyer has shown that his first disastrous book was not a fluke: he is capable of going into any field in which he has no training or research experience and botching it just as badly as he did molecular biology.

I was giving you the benefit of the doubt despite evidence of your christianity. Although it may seem unimaginable, but others have proven one could still have decency genuine self respect at least some of the time even if you lack the courage to jettison christianity completely. Try harder.

1. If I told you what I believew about ALLAH, Zeus, etc. you wouldnt believe me anyway so what's the point?
2. I dont need to read your link anymore than you would read any of mine. I am well aware of the divisions in Christianity just as the divisions in all other "religions". That's caused by man. The Christian God did not make any divisions, they were manmade.
2. No, again, you are putting words in my mouth. There are other creations made by God, angels, cherubs, seraphim, whatever. They are heavenly beings, not lifeforms on other planets. There are also demons here on earth that follow Satan. The Heavenly being are, for lack of a better term, Christian. Satan and his followers are definately not Christian.
It is my OPINION that the so-called "aliens" we see are in actuality demons. I also believe that prior to the flood there was a race on the earth called Nephillim. I believe these were the children of sexual contact between fallen angels and earth women. These were the giants and gods of ancient times. Again, this is my humble opinion.

Evidence? (I actually do read the websites you link, that's how I quote them in my responses, also where my daily giggles come from)
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

And that certainly does not include childish fairy tales.
Do you believe in Santa Claus, too?

Your humble opinion is uninformed to the point of ignorance. When your ancient ancestors dug up something like this.
They came up with this.
And their imaginations ended up with this.
It’s a crying shame that in the several thousand years since people like you haven’t been able to figure that out.
Save a life. Adopt a greyhound.
