God can make infinitely more special/valuable things than this universe

[blue grey brain]

I am an atheist, so I don't subscribe to any God story.

In response 21, I was simply indicating that there were scientific/atheistic means of describing purpose, in response to your reply in post 2, which seemed to portray that no intrinsic purpose was describable by Science.

It's impossible to talk with you, so I'll leave it here.

Getting back to the OP though:

I make a simple point; if the theist doesn't take this universe's creation to be the end of God's supposedly unending power, then the theist ought to expect that God would have created far better things, in whatever ways God would decide to select.
