Quote:How on earth does Occum's razor remove established concepts in theoretical physics? If it did they wouldn't be established concepts. Do you even understand what Occum's Razor is? Its a way of choosing between rival hypothesis not ruling whether something is likely or not.
People like Dawkins argue that something less complicated could of created the universe, because if God created the universe, then you have something even more compliacted than the universe...Thats what I mean with Occam's razor...
Quote:The universe has a specific set of parameters therefore god?
Come back when you get a clue.
Not at all. Therefore MOST LIKELY a Creator (God). We will never know if God does/does not exist, although it makes it more likely God exists...
Quote:Your claim is the there are 20+ constants which are tuned precisely to allow mankind to exist. But an all powerful diety can make it possible that there are no constants at all to fine tune and that the whole universe is conducive to life. As far as we know the 99.9999999999..etc% of the universe is hostile to us. Why is this so if design is at play? This is similar to a designer creating an earth where only 1 room in the only house, on the only bit of land could be lived in by humans.
Fine tuned not only for life but also elements, galaxies and stars. What would happen, if the universe consisted of the Sun, Earth and the moon? We shouldnt take a reductionists approach to the cosmos...
Its ok to have doubt, just dont let that doubt become the answers.
You dont hate God, you hate the church game.

Your mind works very simply: you are either trying to find out what are God's laws in order to follow them; or you are trying to outsmart Him. -Martin H. Fischer
