A Simple Question...or 3!
#36
RE: A Simple Question...or 3!
Quote:The universe is not able to self-start. It breaks every seriously established model of physics as we have it and emerges into a purely academic theoretical level of, well, silliness to imagine such a scenario as where the universe can create its own set of laws from nothing at all. God created the universe for us - and if he has other people living in other systems, then also for them. It's entirely possible that he created our moon for us as well, and put it where it is intentionally (after all, its size and position is just perfect).

With that said, the Big Bang theory still has many merits, but it isn't the definitive truth as to the origin of the universe.

It doesn't matter if the Big Bang is the definitive truth. It is counter-productive to the point of stupidity to assume the work of God in every gap of knowledge. It is academic perversity to include any trace of your backwards superstition into any scientific discussion until you can demonstrate, according to the scientific method, that this god of yours exists and supply proof that the universe is his work.

We want to find out the answers. Chalking it up to God is saying "ignorance is okay, let's not worry about this anymore".
