Hey guess what? I agree! However, I really think you should be more careful to say that "God hasn't showed himself" if you were me, you'd be wiser not to come to that conclusion, I know from personal experience.



Doesn't it? Let me elaborate: if science disproves God, why hasn't it shown up? If it's all a fairytale, why do people still go on wondering about it and searching? Relate to my example, given that Newton and Galileo were hated by the church, they still believed in a creator, their works have inspired allot of modern day sciences, I'd say that's quite allot actually.



Yes that's the loop theory! That's the thesis that the universe will continue to repeat itself by re-forming and re-expanding, but as you've already stated, it hasn't been proven! You don't believe the universe to be consistent, that means that you believe there was a "beginning" involved, if there was a beginning, you don't think that something outside of the universal realm was the cause? Come now, this is like asking the sculpture how it created the sculptor, how the masterpiece created the artist, it's all backwards!

That might seem logical but listen to what you are saying and think about the alternatives: Richard Dawkins for example, crudely states that God is like believing in unicorns and a speghetti monster, but with all of the science, we haven't disproven God, some would even say that science only suggests God's existence! (Isaac Newton said that acknowledging science was acknowledging God's creation)

The fact is we will always have limited knowledge, people can say "God is a myth" or "God is an imaginary friend" but myths die out, note that the "God" concept has been involved with our worldily affairs, not quite like a mythological character in a fantastical world who has no ties of any kind with man, and if God is a myth, then the "God delusion" so to speak, has been one of the most fascinating and long living myths to have ever come in touch with humanity, hell, I could even show you how people saying Jesus the man was a myth borrowed from other myths is all wrong, but that's on a different topic.

God must have been sniffing glue when he made you!
