the_Truth:
There are many potential explanations for the beginning of the universe and God is only one of many possibilities both imagined and unimagined. The fact that it was the first explanation dreamed up by primitive minds in the infancy of human civilisation means nothing, neither does the circular logic of the book in which these ideas are contained, what matters is objective evidence that could be used to distinguish one possibility from another. Until such evidence is found every possibility is only an assumption and that makes god just an assumption too, the god of the gaps.
What makes me think you're a loon is not that you have made the assumption that god is the unknown (although it is rather silly to assume) it is the fact that you assert as truth not only god in a deistic sense, but that you manage to extend the assumption of god all the way to the Judeo-Christian god.
Not only that, but you have completely failed to provide the proof of God that you touted when you opened this discussion, 5 pages ago.
So hurry up and provide this proof of god, or go make your unsupported assertions elsewhere.
