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

[Zen Badger]

Why did this thread that started out with the 'god-of-the-gaps' argument go on for 66 pages?

I want to get involved, but I don't want to read all that. Anyone got a cliff notes version of it for me?

theism has no God of the gap problem. the U. is here, and has a designer. some can't accept it because they're in the dead zone asking the child's question: well, who made God? (easily answered, because God is self-evident). richard dawkins in his 'God delusion' book states the U. is improbable, making the God hypothesis even more improbable. he acknowledges the U. is here to his credit, and we are here; therefore, there must be other universes and ours happens to be one that has the right combination of things in place (anthropic principle). so his answer is an explanation that appeals to the multiverse which is crammed with trillions of universes spinning and twisting to hit on the right combination. so what do you have to explain the U.? now is your chance to set the record straight. ready, set, go.

God is not self evident, try again.
Ands you have yet to present any evidence that the universe has a designer.
