Theists tell me, why is it that everything that God has provided, created and bestowed upon us, co-incidentally always seems to have
an alternate natural, more feasible explanation?
Why cannot science objectively find just one example out of trillions, where we can say, yeah, that thing right there, it shouldn't happen like that but it does, repeatedly.
That thing goes against what is logical or possible in our universe.
Example: People go back to Fatima, pray en masse for a sundance and on queue the Sun dances! For all the world to see?
Maybe it is the work of a God?They prayed to a God and a God responded... Makes logical sense.
But if God is going to act exactly like he doesn't exist in our universe, theists, why on earth do you even assume that he does?
What compels you to go against the grain of logic and common sense and dedicate your life to a particular myth from millions of other man made myths?
We just need one tiny example for God to show us something, but even that is asking too much for a non existent God.
Funny how everything in the world seems to make more sense when you take any extra unnecessary baggage out of the picture. (Occams)
Yeah, the world is a cruel place for the most part, but how is believing in something not real going to help anything or anyone.
Have we really reduced our species to relying on false hope to get by? We must have: 80% of the world does it.
(Even at the quantum level, weird shit happens, that isn't God! Why would the creator of the universe need to hide inside of atoms while we're all outside?
That's how our universe has been for 14 billion years, we're just discovering it now (last 100 years -through knowledge and technology.)
Interesting...
How do you know the universe is 14 billion years old?
How do police investigate a traffic accident even though they didn't see it? CLUES!
It is the same principle as using a tape measure, except in the case of age, it is using the measurement of the speed of light and the time it travels. That allows us to look back in time.
FYI when you see the sun in the sky, you are looking into the past. It takes time for a photon to leave the sun and reach our planet. Knowing the age of the universe is simply using more data points at longer distances.
The same way cops can determine the cause of an accident through measuring where the impact happened, weight of the vehicles involved and where they end up tells them the speed.
"You were not there" Is a very childish ignorant argument and utter bullshit.
If Homicide investigators thought like that, we'd never catch murderers.
OH AND we also have COSMIC BACKGROUND MICROWAVE RADIATION, on top of being able to measure the speed of light.
