The thing is - you have the universe coming from nothing a much as we do.
True.
Quote:"God did it" doesn't address the question of how God made something from nothing.
It's a good start wouldn't you say?
It's a firm claim. It's corroborated by the testimony of a gazillion biblical theists.
Quote:...Basically you are arguing for God did magic and made the universe.Define magic. Dark Energy?
You know what Genesis says. It's just a simple 4 words. Nothing contentious.
"In the beginning God..."
Quote:...As everything we know of that was previously ascribed to magic...[God] has since been explained by science...
Has it? Why are there still "gaps"?
Quote:... this is just another God of the gaps argument.
What gaps?
Quote:..We don't know how the universe started or from what. That doesn't mean magic is the answer - particularly as it has never been before for any unanswered question.
How is atheistic...'we don't know', better than theistic...'we think we DO know'
