Nobody has ever witnessed god, you fucking moron. According to your logic, that means he doesn't exist.

But then, I know you're not actually, you know, having thoughts right now. You're just spending your last days here trolling. Rolleyes

So, where did God come from?

couple of comments on that: hypothetically if God exist, we know He wouldn't be created by another 'god' to the 2'nd power, etc since that would means an infinite regression of causes which would solve nothing because that process couldn't ever begin.
theological answer: God is uncaused, independent, and self-explanatory; and is supra-dimensional which is that He exist outside the space-time-energy-matter U. envelope.

So, your position is basically special pleading: "The universe can't exist without a cause, since no human has seen an effect without a cause! I propose a god, that exists without a cause, to solve it!" Fucking hell. Rolleyes

More importantly, you're begging the question anyway, since you haven't even attempted to establish that an infinite regress or uncaused, unconscious universe is impossible. Argument from ignorance.

Whenever people say something is "self-explanatory," what they usually mean is "I have accepted this explanation." That's not the same thing, nor does simply labeling something as self-explanatory obligates others to accept it as such.

1. No, not after a singularity
2. Read up on the origins of the arrow of time, causality and the quantum measurement problem. Apart from that, you are still acting as if your misleading intuitions were somehow applicable outside the universe

Well, that sure is convenient.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

Rational answer, ie one with the least amount of ad hocs: God as defined in this sense cannot exist. Unless one is defining "God" to include the ability not to be constricted by silly things like logic and rationality, in which case all bets are off anyway.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

bought pink's book, have it right in front of me. -----
Inflation:
In addition to the uncertainty of what will evolve from a singularity, the question also remains regarding a mechanism which could have led out of this singularity (3). During inflation that follows the singularity according to the standard model, the universe supposedly expanded at a rate greater than the speed of light during the first fraction of a second.

It doesn't make sense to say that it expanded faster than the speed of light. It just expands by a certain factor per in universe time.

What is pink's book?

The apparent singularity arises if you evolve the radiation dominated universe back in time in classical general relativity further that it is valid. Apart from this problem with the claim of a mathematical singularity in our past, this is unlikely to be the correct picture of the early universe anyways due to the observed flatness and homogeneity, But, If there is inflation in between, which explains these plus primordial fluctuations, this extrapolation of a radiation dominated universe further backwards is not justified anyways.

The site you link to is a collection of out of context quotes and misconceptions. I don't know what J Silk means by that statement without knowing the context.

Personally I prefer to get my information from sources that understand that Stephen Hawking is not a "famous physicists".
