The only logical explanation is that some intelligent force has ALWAYS existed and as such is infinite, which explains why infinite numbers such as pi exist which defy logic and have no beginning nor ending. Can anyone of us ever count to infinity? Is it even possible for a finite being to truly comprehend infinity since it could never be reached in anyones life time?
Is it not true that our world is rather intelligently devised and that it requires intelligence to understand the way it was devised? Science is merely an attempt at trying to understand our universe through the reverse engineering of universal constants by theorem and experimentation. What pray tell do you suppose put that law in place to begin with? Why is it so hard to comprehend that if it takes intelligence to comprehend our universe then it took intelligence to create it.
Theres only two ways to go about this. Either everything came from nothing(which is impossible) or everything came from an infinitely intelligent life force(God) and created everything that exists(which is possible). The only thing that is impossible is for us to understand how God is possible since we, as finite beings, cannot possibly comprehend infinity. However, just because we cannot comprehend this does not make it any the less true and the only alternative is to say everything came from nothing, which is obviously impossible, thus leaving only one logical explanation...God. |
Normally I just ignore posts like this but I am curious as to how you would answer the following: Why do you choose to worship a God that allows so much pain and suffering in the world when he/she/it could stop it at any time? I dont believe in God myself. I have never been presented a good reason for doing so. But even if God appeared to me in my living room, I wouldnt worship someone that choose to rule the way he does.
I am not interested in an argument about if God exists or is evolution a viable theory. There is nothing new here I havent heard before. I want to know why you would choose to worship this dude to begin with.
