An infinite progress

[Spongebob]

I am a Christian. 

That being said, I am also a human. 

I have the same flaws as all the rest of you. 

THAT being said . . . why? Why is your view of the universe, no, of the Cosmos correct?

The major objection you all seem to raise is the infinite regress. What about the infinite progress? If everything that is designed requires a designer more complex than itself, how does that not imply an infinitely and complex creator?

For one thing, 42, you should know all things since your very username is the answer to everything.

For another, you must understand the position of a science-minded person.  We base our understanding of the cosmos on observations, theories that have been developed and supporting data for those theories.  The concept of an all powerful god is not scientific, so far as we understand it today, therefore it cannot be observed or evaluated other than through philosophy.  There are numerous gods that people worship and with them numerous ideas of existence and the universe.  So if you reject the scientific approach to understanding the universe, you are still left with many, many possible explanations.  Where religion is concerned, you can't rely on theories, observations and data to evaluate the nature of existence, so I see no real advantage in such an approach.  Most people don't spend the necessary time in philosophical thought to truly evaluate religion; they merely accept what they were taught to believe.  So expecting those of us who have challenged that sort of indoctrination to simply go back to it and accept it is rather irrational.
