I think they covered this some when in primary school.
I would like to know how you understand a statement like "explained through science".
They didn't explain where the phenomena comes from, but how it takes place.
Do you know the concept of recursion ? In Computer Science, it's a function calling a function for infinity, unless you put a brick point called "the base case", to stop the function call at a certain time.
In any science in the world, you go into a recursive rode, until you reach the base case. In any physical object you would reach the atom, that's your base case.
I want you to explain to me where the base case comes from in your opinion : ) You can also find a lot of other base cases inside the atom itself. I'm not asking about what an atom is.
Am asking where this atom came from.
Please tell me you started to see the point.
If you go by string theory, the smallest constituent is a string.
Where did these things come from?
We don't really know.
Why did they come about?
Does there have to be a reason? Does there have to be an anterior motive?
If yes, the god hypothesis must be subjected to the same line of questioning. Where did the god come from? why?
The theist concept only pushes the question one step back, while presenting an unverifiable answer to the previous step.
Many have claimed then that god is eternal and has always been there, and whatever.... Why can't I make the same claim for the Universe's constituents?
As far as verifiability, we're on the same stand-point.
Why would someone add the extra step?
