You are asking where did the energy come from to set off the big bang or how did life itself come to exist. I like to say that when it comes to science regarding these matters that it is a work in progress. We don't have all the answers but we openly admit when we simply don't know. But not knowing does not mean that we do not continue to search for answers. Christians and other theists of other brands all are content with god did it. They give up right there and accept that since we don't know and maybe can't know then god is the obvious answer and conclusion. All of this is based on faith a faulty way of determining anything that one cannot comprehend.
I don't that is quite right. The verson of the cosmological arguement isn't as simple as what I said in my last post. My last post was just some simple thoughts on what EVF said, not an arguement for God. I don't know how life started but I think it happened naturally.
