Suppose God create a beautiful environment for you to live as it was
in the beginning.
You keep going back and forth on this, without realizing that unless god makes his presence known your examples are just more of the same: presuming that god exists and that he refuses to talk to his beloved children, even though he desperately wishes for them all to have a relationship with him. He comes across as a petty and selfish and cowardly person. I'm glad he doesn't exist, because if he did all of the other gods would be giving him holy wedgies and stealing his lunch money all day long.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
