God

[Caffeine Socialism]

I've come to realize that not only does God not exist, but God has not yet existed.   Yet I see that coming to an end.   I believe that what we refer to as 'God' will be created in the future.   Let me give you my evidence.

I am a human being.   I am an organism.   Within my body are various bodily systems.   These systems, when put together, have a cumulative effect of producing a living organism, myself.   Each bodily system is comprised of several organs, all of which when put together produce a bodily system.   These organs consist of cells, which consist of organelles, which consist of macromolecules, which consist of molecules, which consist of atoms, which consist of protons, neutrons, and electrons, all of which consist of ever-smaller subatomic particles.   You see, the combination of myriad parts creates a greater entity.   This is seen all throughout the universe.   Galaxies are made of stars.   Solar systems are made of planets.   Beaches are made of grains of sand.

So why should God be any different?   In time, when all the universe is connected in ways that we cannot begin to imagine, there will be a great entity that controls every aspect of everything, and all else beside that.

 

P.S.   This is not my inspiration.   Dogbert (R), who is a creation of Mr. Scott Adams, was the first to express this idea.   I am but a vessel through which Dogbert speaks.

Boy, do the two of you ever have it backwards!!??

So I take it right now you are an Atheist but later on after you create God then you will believe?

I have never met anyone so confused.

You have left me unnaturally speechless.

I take it you don't appreciate the sarcasm lurking in there somewhere... I can't find it either.

But, hey, it makes sense, doesn't it?

So then this was a joke?

DNAunion: FYI Susan, Dogbert is the dog in the Dilbert cartoon series.

Well, it used to be a joke. But I can imagine a near-omnipotent entity comprised of all the minds in the universe being created in the future.

For a long time I have had the suspicion that one day way in the future after science has uncovered all there is to know, someone will realize that they must go back in time to initiate a quantum explosion which will ensure that the universe does actually come into being.


edit: not 4 minutes after posting this I read this by WinAce in Post 7 at http://www.christianforums.com/threads/26004.html
"And again, notice that it can be used by any religion (even the ones that say time-travelling humans from the future started our universe). Preaching to the choir, yada yada."

And here I thought i was so clever and innovative... :o

ashibaka - good one... oddly enough, I came up with this theory on my own, although I probably heard it when I was young and forgot about any reference and my subconcious just dredged it up
