If a universe has drug addiction, a universe must be conscious, if a universe is conscious, it must have intelligence, if a universe has intelligence, it must be intelligent. An intelligent universe is what we call God.
And no, you couldn't put any arbitrary noun in place of God. I'm not trying to prove the universe is an orange. An arbitrary noun would be like putting any old number after the = sign in a given equation.
Hmm.
My grandad is dead, he no longer exists.
The universe displays nonexistence, therefore the universe is nonexistant.
If you counter by saying "but he was once alive so therefore their was intelligence" then my next point would be as follows: if we nuke the planet to pieces and destroy all life on it (assuming there is no life elswhere) have we killed god?
