From an Atheist's perspective, it just seems like the nature of all existence carries with it some inherent conceptual restrictions. And at a minimum, in order to understand things in this universe, we need a way of identifying them as either "it" or "not-it". But if you pull all of us out of the universe, surely God wouldn't need to rely on the same simple rules that we use. And he certainly shouldn't be required to abide by them, right?
So, is God bound by the same things as all nature? If not, what's your move from here? Just wonderin'...
God is an easy explanation for things morons don't understand.
"I don't know how the universe could have started therefore god"
"I don't understand how life started therefore god"
"I don't understand how my TV works therefore god"
The way I like to think is.
"I don't know how the universe started, lets find out"
This way of thinking drives humanity forward. The other approach stifles progress.
When you think you have all the answers you don't try learn.
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
