The reason I'm asking is that according to scientific "fact" matter had to always exist and will always exist. It's really hard to fathom something that always was and always will be. Since matter always existed, it couldn't have come from nothing (the total absence of anything), but obviously some of you hold that one or the other of these assumptions is true.
Yet you don't find it hard to fathom that some entity, possessed of seeminly childishly anthropamorphic traits, as well as an elastic suite of attribute always ready to be stretched to fit the ad hoc argumentative and wishthinking needs of the least educated and least scientifically literate of our societies, "always was and always will be", to say nothing of also being omnipotent but yet so unable to avoid torturous excersises to get to what you say he wants to get to.
