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

Quote:As the Earth cooled enough to form a solid crust (4.4 billion years ago), it was covered with active volcanos. These volcanos spewed out gasses, like water vapor, carbon dioxide and ammonia. This early toxic atmosphere was nothing like the atmosphere we have today.
Light from the Sun broke down the ammonia molecules released by volcanos, releasing nitrogen into the atmosphere. Over billions of years, the quantity of nitrogen built up to the levels we see today.

What is this, that you're doing here? Why do you think someone being wrong about something would change my mind? Thinking
the emphasis is on 'perceptions' and the story, not about you changing...at ease, carry on.

Where did the universe come from? Atheistic origin science has no answer.
I had an NDE where I witnessed a loved one die in front of me. The experience was so strong that it took almost more than six months for the feelings of loss on waking, vivid dreams, and being convinced at some level they had actually died and I was in a coma.

For the first week in the hospital, (heavily medicated and under daily MRI observation due to likelihood of slipping into a coma) I had to overcome the conviction that she was not actually dead every time I woke up alone, or was dead and I was hallucinating her when she returned.

Is this evidence that I have a ghost sitting next to me right now, or am actually still in a coma, or that I suffered a traumatic injury that caused the brain to hallucinate?

If god exists outside of the universe and creates the universe, there should be no scenario in which he cannot create life. Therefore, the universe does not need fine-tuning in order to support life. If the universe requires fine-tuning to support life, then god could not have created it. He must have found it after another god created it, or it was there all along and he isn't necessary for it (or life) to develop.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."

And since God could have life in any sort of universe at all, the odds that God would choose this particular univers to create is about one in infinity.

these nde are generally thought of as falling into 3 categories : 1. neuro-psychological - brain is malfunctioning in some way, aka, oxygen deprivation, endorphins being released, etc. 2. psychological nature of person - caused by perhaps a defense mechanism or shock. person is have a troubling psychological experience. these two categories percentagewise together account perhaps for 95%. 3 meta-physical in nature - secular skepticism would serve well here. one thing for sure, messages interpreted to be from God would be bogus; however, could be originating from a spiritual deception source.

Demonstrate this 'spiritual deception source'
'The more I learn about people the more I like my dog'- Mark Twain

'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House

“Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom

"If my good friend Doctor Gasparri speaks badly of my mother, he can expect to get punched.....You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others. There is a limit." - Pope Francis on freedom of speech

Why do experiences of God deserve special consideration?

We know for a fact these experiences are originating within the brain, and mine can be dismissed with a psychological explanation, yet if I had told you I saw winged angels and pearly gates you'd unquestioningly accept it as evidence for the supernatural?
