God Is Real

[Erinome]

It's simple. Do not believe something unless it comes from a source you trust, you have seen it for yourself or you understand the mechanics behind it.

For example, I know that gear ratio dictates the output of a gear train.

I know this because Mr. Lane told me and he is the man.

I know this because I fucked up enough gear trains to see it for myself.

I know this because I understand how all of the gears in a gear train, the speed of the input gear, the size of their teeth and the number of their teeth dictate output, to put it simply. I've done the math, I've seen the math and I have applied the math. I also hate the math.

Long story short, people in most fields of science are not guessing. They have experienced at least two of the three above criteria before they say, "Hey, that's how it works." in most cases.

Before there was anything created by man,there had to be an idea to create it.Either men were smarter back when the world first came about or it wasnt just by trail and error they got things right.Try making something out of nothing and see how much intelligence you use.The bases that we use today for discovering new things comes from systems designed that the roots of can be traced back to the start of time.so therefore the people back in time must have had the utmost intellect to create a system of study and thinking patterns from non-existent information,correct?

Same thing from all the theists. How did something come from nothing? Believe it or not, there was matter before cognitive perception. Who made the matter? Who made the maker of the matter? Who made the maker of the maker of the matter?

Can you not concede that your god is something? If so, did he come from nothing?

What you really want is the answer to the question "why?". I like the way Dawkin's answers that question.
