Are you kidding me?![]()
You clearly don't know what the word rational means.![]()
How on earth can you think that the universe doesn't need a creator and an operator and then say that you are a rational person?
Logic tell us that nothing come from nothing so to think that the universe doesn't need a creator is the opposite of logic therefore atheists are not rational.
Mysteries will unfold as you learn.
For a little kid is a big mystery how scientists created a rocket able to land on the moon but as he-she will grow up he will learn how.
For us humans equipped with only a unidimensional mind obviously is impossible to understand a multidimensional mind such as God.
Again as we go along we will know.
Why should I worry at this stage and why a small kid should worry about rocket science?
All I am worry at this stage is what I know and what I know is that nothing that I know come from nothing.
God I still do not know 100% or even 1% so why should I speculate on Him?

Khem, I think you missed the thrust of Rik's argument. It's easy to overlook Rik's brilliance. Part of the problem is Rik's fault though. He failed to present his argument formally, and that makes all the difference when one's position is as nuanced as Rik's. Let me help him out:
Premise 1:![]()
Premise 2:![]()
Therefore:![]()
I'm sure you agree with me that it is nearly impossible to formulate an objection to this argument. A testament to Rik's brilliance.
That is bizarre that all this come from someone that after reading tons of books still doesn't know where love for knowledge eventually will lead to.
