Yeah we get it. "Everything you can do I can do better" and all that.
Your imagination doesn't wash with those who can't experience or believe your imagination, Randy. I thought this would have been obvious by now no? There is no competition between 'science' and 'god'. One is a 'thing', a tool we use to discover things we don't currently know, whilst the latter is a get of of jail clause to explain things away that we can't be bothered to explore.
Come on, you're supposed to hit back with a spell. Preferably one with nice colours.
Can you at least agree with the following? (please notice the conditional "if")
If God exists and if He is capable of creating all things out of nothing (which is not a thing itself), then He would have no problem whatsoever suspending the laws of the physical universe to suit His own needs whenever He wanted to do so.
Yes or no?
