My head is too small for that! The evidence is extremely large.No evidence has been presented. Science can only consider evidence that does exist, not evidence that only exists in your head.
I agree, it's much easier to believe that a magic man in the sky was the creator of everything and then refuse to confront the problem of where he came from,The belief that we are here by chance is pure nonsense. It is equivalent to winning the lottery a trillion times in a row.
'Magic man in the sky' aside ... what problem are you talking about?I agree, it's much easier to believe that a magic man in the sky was the creator of everything and then refuse to confront the problem of where he came from,
It is you who is rationalizing the "deceptive" behavior of nature/redshift by claiming that empty space can expand (embedded expansion).Now you are merely rationalizing a deceptive behavior.
What about it?
Why don't you ask them?Some years ago, Dr. Francis Collins, the renowned scientist who was in charge of the Human Genome Project, was invited to speak at the Loma Linda University graduating ceremony. He made the following observation about the human DNA:
“I was tempted to read to you this morning the entire DNA sequence, but changed my mind when I discovered that it would take me 32 years of non stop reading.”
I have no idea how can highly intelligent scientists assume that the intricate design of the human DNA has been the product of unguided chance.
I don't wish to ignore it. I wish to see it, just as dad does.Yes, the expansion of space is well observed. If you wish to ignore it, so be it.
I always believed some humans have a sixth sense through which we can observe things that others can't. That's why some of us can observe God and other can't.No, your ignorance of how the expansion of space is observed has you making acquisitions to suit your own preconceived unsupported ideas.
This is total hogwash.How can redshift be explained besides by the Big Bang theory? And of course there is more evidence. The cosmic background energy is extremely strong evidence of the Big Bang as is the distribution of light elements. Currently there are no other scientific explanations.
Where did the magic man in the sky come from? the thing you prefer to call god.'Magic man in the sky' aside ... what problem are you talking about?
Where God came from?
God is self-existent.
There -- "problem" confronted and dealt with.
'Magic man in the sky' aside, God is self-existent.Where did the magic man in the sky come from?
Problem is you are not observing a god you just think you are, do you observe things that you know are not from god?I always believed some humans have a sixth sense through which we can observe things that others can't. That's why some of us can observe God and other can't.
Yes you keep saying that but it's still not true, nor will it ever be no matter how many time you say it.'Magic man in the sky' aside, God is self-existent.
As long as you believe that, I have a feeling you will condemn yourself to searching for where God came from for the rest of your life.Yes you keep saying that but it's still not true, nor will it ever be no matter how many time you say it.
I was abducted by aliens, I was abducted by aliens, I was abducted by aliens, I was abducted by aliens, I was abducted by aliens,
how many times must I say it before it becomes true?
I am not religious so I will accept any valid answer that is backed by something more than, 'because it just is'.As long as you believe that, I have a feeling you will condemn yourself to searching for where God came from for the rest of your life.
Perhaps the next time you ask a valid question, you would care to include the kind of answers you won't accept?
Will "self existent" do?I am not religious so I will accept any valid answer that is backed by something more than, 'because it just is'.
I'm on record as stating I think the universe may have run on perpetual motion before the Fall.Do you also believe in a 'perpetual motion machine'?
That wasn't my question but never mind I've heard enough.I'm on record as stating I think the universe may have run on perpetual motion before the Fall.
So YES.
(For now.)
Who cares? People that accept reality care. Sadly no one cares what you believe, neither realists nor creationists.
You can only know that if you had the sixth sense to see or not see what I see or not see.Problem is you are not observing a god you just think you are
Yes, atheism.do you observe things that you know are not from god?
Atheists don't believe in God, so I know atheism is not from God.if you do how can you tell which is and which isn't from god?
