The Stage is Yours.

[Cato]

For me, it quite simple...

Science has shown us that all matter decays. If all matter decays, then the universe and all that exists or existed cannot be eternal.

It's easier for me to believe in a creator who has always existed (not created, that's imposible IMO) than to believe matter "popped" into existence.

However improbable it may seem, that's my reason...

And for the record, here's my "definition" of God...

Simply put, it's that "nothingness" that started everything.
That "nothingness" that exists between electrons.
That "nothingness" that comprises the greater part of your physical existense.

Is this an accurate description of your god: God = nothingness?

Your first premise "all matter decays" is wrong. We can break up matter into its consituent parts, but how exactly and under what circumstances does an atom of hydrogen decay? Do you really want to engage in a conversation regarding gluons?

Simpler yet, consider the photon. The tricky little bit that enables you to see what you're typing. The space between electrons is bathed in photons, yet you proclaim there is nothing. I suggest more books than those pastiched together to make the Bible if you want to have an understanding about what occupies space.
