I say to you what I say to anyone else going there. We don't know how the universe works to it's last detail. We also don't know how life came to be, at this point. We know a lot more than we knew a century ago and, given another century, we will know even more.
What you're doing is filling the gap with your god. You're uncomfotable with not knowing anything and so there's a gap to fill. You do that with your god as the filler. It's called God of the gap fallacy, actually. It's on the same lines as some caveman staring up to the sun and the moon, not understanding them and calling them god. So, I'm used to call that caveman behavior.
Which gap are you referring to, and when did I fill it with god? Can you point it out so I can correct it in my future behavior?
So far, the only time I have mentioned god in this thread is to mention to people that I do not intend to use this thread as a future proof of god.
