You seem a rather intelligent group, albeit rather verbally abusive in some cases, do you enjoy living in blissful ignorance and getting upset if someone questions you?
Ok, I’m saying God created the world. My evidence is the universe.
You can deny my proof. Fair enough. But unless you have some other theory, where does that leave you. Having a club of people who all agree that no one has proved God exists? It would make sense if your mission is to prove or disprove it yourselves.
God bless you

For centuries, ever since Galileo and Copernicus and countless others who refused your idiotic "I don't know any better" explanation, so I say "Gawd done did it" scientists
were persecuted by your church for their discoveries, and the RCC has been opposed to science. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmology
Your evidence is not evidence. In fact your use of the universe to prove your god has a name. It's called the "Divine Fallacy". It's also an example of the "god of the gaps fallacy".

When the long slow work of science has found an explanation, the two year olds among us, not unlike yourself, will have to stop saying "but why mommy", "but why mommy".
You act like a two year old.
Explanation of the divine fallacy.
The divine fallacy can take various forms, but it generally has a structure similar to the following:
Premise 1: if I don’t know how to explain a certain phenomenon using science, then it must occur as a result of divine intervention.
Premise 2: I don’t know how to explain this phenomenon using science.
Conclusion: this phenomenon must occur as a result of divine intervention.
Your argument is also a great example of two more fallacies.
1. The argument from ignorance fallacy, and
2, The argument from personal incredulity fallacy.
You're making a fool of yourself, Barry my friend. With every post. The FSM loves you, and wants to put his noodley appendages in your pants.
The FSM will bless you.
Cheers
Every religion is true one way or another. It is true when understood metaphorically. But when it gets stuck in its own metaphors, interpreting them as facts, then you are in trouble. - Joseph Campbell ![Popcorn Popcorn](https://atheistforums.org/images/smilies/popcorn.gif)
