So..... how does the Quran and its creator solve the problem of 'Evil', as they see it?
Cheers.
I think it does follow. All we do in science is to explain (or explain better) phenomena which isn't explained already. Let's suppose we reached the stage where there's no corner in the universe left to investigate. Can we then tell anything why is it there in the first place?
All the established scientific theories we know so far have no ontological value everyone can relate to. General relativity has zero value to the layman. We didn't make any progress answering this kind of questions ever. Isn't it curious that the most pressing existential questions are exactly the ones unanswered by science?
Why can't the answers be the ones the old holy books? These books were almost always reachable to everyone, so god's way of sending his message isn't as bad as atheists claim.
If a just God exists, the answers should be already there. Here's how : a just God would make his message accessible to anyone at any time. It's perfectly unfair of God to reveal the true purpose in the universe in 2050, because then people who died before desperately looking for answers literally had no way of reaching the truth.
