(March 2, 2017 at 6:58 pm)PETE_ROSE Wrote: Are you pondering the personal "why" did God create the universe, as in to what purpose?

Ex:  Why did my wife and I choose to have children?   For our amusement, edification, to instill our values, procreation of the species, or to have someone to pass our gold bullion to?

Or is there a reductionist argument as to why the universe was/is a creation?

Ex:  The universe has an observable beginning where time and matter came into existence.  The universe appears governed by laws and constants and order not chaos permeates it. Life, consciousness, humanity, nature, etc appear designed.  This implies a designer.  Thus there must be a designer.

But we can prove you and your wife exist.  As far as the designer, that's just crap.
