Book of Acts: Pure Fantasy

[Whateverist]

It doesn't appear that you have let the question remain unsettled; you are quite content to rule out an intelligent cause and assume that it must have some kind of naturalistic explanation. Again, it's anything but God, but I haven't seen you make any arguments that would rule God out.

Oh no the question of origins is quite unsettled in my mind. But of course I am expecting a natural accounting, just as I do for anything else science is working on. Since we have no reliable account of eternal omnipotent genies who can blink universes into existence, they can't be part of such an accounting until their own existence has been established.

With a sufficient amount of time we may be able to alter our DNA to make us immortal, and enhance ourselves with technology to give us near-unlimited knowledge and power. If this is possible, why not an eternal being?

Now you're just not trying. You're suggesting that at some prior time a technological society may have perfected technology to the point where they could put death off for ever. That would hardly make them eternal, would it? Will they have also have mastered time travel so that they can go back 15 billion years and somehow set off the singularity that we think accounts for our universe? Neither do I see much hope that technology will ever catch up with the powers claimed for your genie. Silly suggestion.
