Where did the universe come from? Atheistic origin science has no answer.

[pocaracas]

Wow.... it took me a few months to figure out who were the mods and whatnot...

Not the wrong site, just too much text after too many pages on the subject. All that has been written, perhaps not quite like that, but... it has.
But please do make yourself known with an intro thread... right this way, sir:
http://atheistforums.org/forum-11.html

I actually did go through the 246 pages of this thread prior to my own. No, what I said was unique and not at all represented in any of the posts. (I am a speed scanner BTW, very handy in my prior line of work.)

Well, I just used the search function and came up with 46 posts mentioning multiverse on this thread alone, prior to your own. (to be fair, the last mention, before your own, was back in December... back when people were already wishing for this thread to die)
Not to mention the myriad results that would result from a forum-wide search.

What you said was not unique... and "speed scanning" doesn't work. I tried it for a while and all I got was a jumble of no-detailed info with no connecting tissue between the parts.

Too long? I put forth what I believe to be a pretty good explanation of everything without presuming anything prior except reasonable metaphysical criteria of what it means to exist. I failed to account for the existence of the universe in 25 words or less? Too bad. I organized it as well as I know how and broke it into brief paragraphs with lots of white space for easier digestion. Want clarification? Sure. Disagree with it? Fine, let's talk. Ignore it? I can live with that. 

So what did I get for my troubles? Basically sarcasm from a mod followed by belittling of my efforts and calls from others to delete the whole thread. I get the message.

I was going for some humor... but it seems people like to default to thinking the worst of others.
Insecurity much?

And I was acting as a normal user. I wasn't moderating your post, was I?
First and foremost, I am a normal user. I come here to read and write about this wonderful world of godlessness.
My overall casual behavior has been merited with modhood... so I can now act on rule-breaches and fix details of other people's posts that are blatantly wrong (like bad quoting - exacerbated by the recent upgrade of the forum to the WYSIWYG editor)... and that's it. Anything else, it's me as a normal user being myself. Occasionally having some fun, but most of the time trying to instruct some poor theist soul.
This time, I was having fun of your patent insecurity.
Multiverse has been done to death and found to be simply speculative, so why take it seriously?

Thanks to Alex K for reading (and understanding!) the post and offering pertinent comments.

He's new
He's also a german quantum (or rocket) physicist. He's one of the few people around here that would understand the subtleties of quantum symmetries and the like...
Also, you didn't address the symmetry breaking that appears in the literature: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spontaneous...y_breaking

And thanks also to Minimalist for kind words and intelligent conversation on a different thread. But I can see that in general this is not the place for me. There are a few bright lights but for the most part the participants here - on both 'sides' - are driven much more by gut-level emotional urges than actual thought and do not even display much knowledge of the subjects they 'discuss'. My fault. I should have looked deeper before joining.
 
No need for that introduction post. I can see myself out. Good night.

bah... weakling!
