Q about arguments for God's existence.

Do you know any true gentlemen who are still fun?

Yep - me!

Why do you believe the Big Bang Theory as the cause of creation?

Did I say I did?

Why are the goal posts suddenly shifting from the validity of theories proposed by astrophysicists based on their religious beliefs to my beliefs?

Speaking of religious beliefs, since when do causes predate the space time manifold in which causality occurs?

[Cyberman]

Because God. Stop persecuting me!

The Big Bang is only applicable on an individual star basis when it goes supernova. It doesn't work for the universe. And even then it has to be modified in order to fit supernova physics.

Why are they all so fucking illogical and idiotic? Moreover, why are so many people dumb enough to be "persuaded" by them?

They are no different that the proof the Santa Claus existed when you were a child.

Most people were quite young when they were first indoctrinated about a god - and uneducated is the correct term - not dumb. And most of the time - the indoctrination was done by their parents - who they trusted most.

So - for most people - they never asked for proof of a god - they simply accepted what their parents told them.

But - education - something that religion worked to happen - actually taught us to question things and ask for proof. And the more outlandish the claim - the greater proof was required. When I was young - if you asked for proof of god - you would be pummeled - and told not to question it.

Today - if they did that to you - they would be arrested
So - since there is NO proof of a supernatural god - what could they possibly say except for Double Talk - and nonsense?

And that is why religion is not only losing members - but it is aging rapidly - with fewer and fewer young people joining the nonsense. So - where does religion get its new young members - from third world areas where the children are largely uneducated.

And uneducated people are not accustomed to looking for reality.

As a 21st Century educated American you should be able to see the flaws in the Big Bang Theory yourself. It partially works on an individual star basis when a star goes supernova but not for the creation of the universe. Think about it and you will see why.

What a load of shit. Classic pseudoskeptic bullshit:

"If you were as smart as me it would be obvious that...

...global warming is a hoax."

...9/11 was an inside job."

...we never put a man on the moon."

...aliens built the pyramids."

...there is a single universal consciousenss because vibration and frequency."

...the Illuminati controls everything."

...electroacupunture works."

...weight loss can be achieved without diet or exercise."

...Lee Harvey Oswald didn't act alone."

...Elvis is still alive."

...contrails are a means of chemical warfare."

...vaccines cause autism."

You're going to have to come with some pretty good reasoning if you want us to accept your denial of the Big Bang Theory. Until you provide something more substantial than a backhanded compliment regarding intelligence as justification for your claims, you are nothing more than a crank.

"The flaws are so obvious that I certainly can't verbalize them!"

You have got to be ... Uh, never mind.

Are you seriously suggesting that the Big Bang was a supernova, and that all supernovae are Big Bangs (which of course they are, but not in the Event One sense)?
