Good catch Poet
Meh - I'm out of that game. Ad Hominem, although fun, never qualifies as rational discourse. I guess he wanted out.
No it doesn't speak about materially creating the universe. I have to credit your lack of knowledge of the subject for that misconception.
You then address a material fact: death, with a metaphysical proposition: life after death... again wanting to mix science with non science. An extraordinary leap. Once again... please justify your reasoning to make such an extraordinary claim.

Not really, Watson. If god doesn't exist, then your so called understanding is anything but.

Also yes it does speak about the universe. God creating it is one.

Please point out where I made such a claim. Rejecting bullshit is not claiming.

Besides, it beats going to either heaven or hell. Once our brains stops functioning, we will cease to exist.
