Oh Good! Another insightful Rob value post!!
After all there are literal people on this planet right now who live in a self imposed stone age and they like you can not/will not accept anything they do not already know.
Once you move past your cave man thinking then maybe we can have a rational discussion on what a creator God means.

But if there is one:
1) We don't know if it still exists
Quote:2) We have found no evidence of it within our universe/realityActually you will not accept the evidence provided nor will you follow the path to said evidence.
Quote:3) We have no current means to learn anything about things outside our universe/reality, if such a thing is even coherentSo the logical 'learn-ed' conclusion would be, nothing exists beyond our current ablity to comprehend it. That Sounds right..
Quote:My conclusion is that it is entirely irrelevant, unless new evidence emerges. In other words, it makes no practical difference to me if there is a creator.and if evidence is provided then what? If you don't have nor will you consider a 'plan' if evidence is provided then one can rightfully conclude that you have closed your mind to anything you do not currently believe.
Quote:There's all these arguments trying to establish a generic creator, such as Kalam or intelligent design. Call the creator God if you want, we haven't learnt anything about it just by giving it a title. So if I let your arguments stand, and there is a creator, can you tell me what difference it should make to me?You primary concern should not be of God but how you view yourself and how you intake and process fact/knowledge. If you can not address your deficiency there, then nothing you don't already think you know will ever have an impact on your day to day life.
