I have a question

[Minimalist]

Well, religion doesn't answer them either. It merely makes shit up and sells it to its adherents.

The Ancient Egyptians thought their gods invented the universe, too. There is little unique in your viewpoint.

it just doesn't make sense to say the universe just popped out of nowhere suddenly for no reason

The universe makes as much sense as we are currently able to understand it. We certainly understand it better than we did fifty years ago.

God did it simply is not a valid, logical explanation because there is absolutely no evidence to support the existence of your god.

This is why science will NEVER answer the big questions of life such as where did we come from, where are we going, etc because we only take as fact or evidence that which we can see, touch or hear, and forget that we humans beings are limited and restricted, there is only so much we can see, touch or hear

Is it so hard really to live with the very large probability that we exist for no reason? Are you so full of yourself that you have to feel special in order for you to appreciate the amazing fact that we're alive?

Now, Im not saying we shouldn't take as fact or evidence that which we can see, touch or hear BUT we need to use logic and common sense, it just doesn't make sense to say the universe just popped out of nowhere suddenly for no reason

The burden of proof is on you, poppet.

But say God wanted to make this life a test for human beings.

Then he would be a rather selfish, immature god unworthy of worship.

do you honestly expect Him to come down on earth and say 'Look people, Im here!'?

Sure, according to the bible, he has done it in the past. There is no reason he cannot do it now, unless he does not exist.

The evidence IS here, but you are refusing to consider it.

There is no evidence. All any theist has is faith, which is the veritable lack of evidence.

This means there is intelligence behind the universe.

False, you are merely attributing everything to god because you are intellectually lazy and you want a readily easy answer to questions that we honestly do not yet have all the answers.

I think many of you don't know who 'God' is.

One can know your god as well as anyone can know a fictional character.

You are proof why God has to test mankind because not everyone is clearly worthy of entering His paradise and worthy of His mercy

Prove to me that your god exists. Otherwise, your statements are just silly drivel derived from a deluded mind.

Here's your god in action.

1 Sam. 15

Thus saith the LORD of hosts, I remember [that] which Amalek did to Israel, how he laid [wait] for him in the way, when he came up from Egypt.

15:3 Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.

Fuck him!

You can't tell what happens before planck time. So.

I bet long ago theists were telling atheists: Well then, who do you think caused lightnings?

To continue with my analogy:

Theists: Electrons? Static electricity? Do you know how silly you sound right now? It's evidence for god but you just refuse to see it!

But, you! You insignificant little human being, you are so special! You know exactly what your god wants, so you are sure you'll enter paradise. But alas, you were wrong. The muslims were right, yeah, you gonna burn in hell with us. Welcome!

And btw, if heaven is to spend eternity with sanctimonious snobs like you, I'd rather go to hell.
