Perhaps it with it's immense knowledge and wisdom, knows the natural laws would be enough to create life all over the universe. This also doesn't take away his role in constantly causing existence to exist, just not playing intervention role. Also life after death etc, all can happen, but this universe with diverse life has it's wisdom in which it would be governed by natural laws.
Sometimes you make very philosophical deep points and you seem to ponder the existence of God a lot which makes me think you do genuinely think about the subject.
But in other threads you have said you're becoming a Muslim again or words to that effect.
How do you go from being rational and philosophical about the existence of god, to believing that god definitely delivered a message to all of mankind via a book written in Arabic.
A book that claims if you don't believe the verses within the book God will burn you til you roast, then put more skin on you so he can burn you again.
A book that describes the creation of man as God saying the word "Be" To some dust then the dust turned into a man.
A book which contains localized Arabic idioms, obviously written by an Arabic person, and a full chapter of this book is dedicated to talking about how an uncle who Muhammad didn't like will be in hell. Does there need to be anymore indicators that Muhammad made it up himself? Why would the creator of the universe give one final message to mankind in the form of a book and a full chapter of it is dedicated to a family grievance of the messenger?
It would be like the queen of England doing the Christmas dinner speech to the UK and dedicating a paragraph of the speech to talking about the cameramans family troubles, why would God care about Muhammad's uncle?
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
