Why I Don't Believe in Atheism

RE: Why I Don't Believe in Atheism
(July 30, 2014 at 10:44 pm)MPCADF Wrote: For me it is really simply why I don't believe in atheism, because the universe can't come from nothing, that is, non-existence, because that which does not exist can't cause anything, since it doesn't exist. We only have evidence of causation from 'something', no evidence to the contrary.

And I don't believe in atheism because the universe(s) could not have always existed because if it (they) had then by definition there would have been an be an infinite regress of cause and effects, so you would have had an eternity to come into being before now, so you should have already happened. And self-contradictorily, you would never have existed because a past eternity would continue to go on for eternity, thus never reaching this point of existence now.

Therefore, by this evidential reasoning, I conclude nature needs a cause outside of itself, outside of time and space, being uncreated. This uncreated Creator is Whom I call God. Logical, since we know the uncreated Creator exist, it is incumbent upon us to find out where God reveals Himself personally. The initial caveat is that God is not self-contradictory so only one religion can be the correct one.

And how does an infinite god overcome the problems that an infinite space has?

There isn't really such a thing as nothing. Molecules and such have always been around. However as a christian it would seem you do think the universe came from nothing, because your book says god spoke it into existence. Matter from nothing.

Even if I agree with you that some deistic god had to create the universe, we're no closer to proving the existence of a theistic god like Yahweh.
