The 2nd law of thermodynamics did not exist until man defined it. Entropy is a property of the universe.
Quote: The first law is never violated, therefore we must believe energy in some form existed for all of eternity in the past.
And because entropy can not be eternal, usable energy must have existed forever in the past.
Did you know that the sum of all energy in the universe is calculated to be zero? Therefore, none of it existed before the Big Bang, which was not necessarily a singularity. In Hawking's no boundary proposal "there would be no singularities, and the laws of science would hold everywhere, including at the beginning of the universe."
Quote:Therefore this eternal usable energy had literally forever to become aware of its self, i.e. “I think therefore I am” (abiogenesis of God).
That is woo for which there is no evidence. Do you have a proposed mechanism?
Quote:And any life form that exists in a place in which entropy does not exist, can never die, and any life form that can never die must eventually become/evolve into an all knowing all powerful being, no matter how painstakingly long it may take.
Must? Really? How does it do that?
Quote:Therefore if the eternal "something" exists, the chances of it becoming a sentient all knowing being is 1/1 (100%) because it has literally all of eternity for it to happen. Thus if the eternal something exists, God must also exist. And atheistic science knows this very well, this is why they need an illogical "something from nothing" hypothesis to reject God from existing.
Must? Your conclusion does not follow.
Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
