New guy with questions

RE: New guy with questions
Quote:"A common linchpin of theistic arguments is the idea of Aristotle’s Causal Axiom, which seems to logically require a demiurgic entity to have flipped the switch to set things in motion.

Aristotle lived in the 4th century BC. We've come a long way since then.


Quote:we still do not know why the universe bothers to exist in the first place.


Humans love to ask "why" so they can create answers to make themselves feel very special.

We're not that special.
