This creator would *have* to be even more complex than his creation, in order to actually be in charge of it, right? How can this creator simply "be" yet our universe had to be created? This does not make sense to me at all. It makes more since, to me anyway that the Universe simply is, it is the constant that binds all life, just like God is to many people. Since I know that the universe exists, I can see it, and feel it; yet I cannot touch, or see God; I chose to believe in the Universe. Both have the same realm of possibility.
On another note, as an atheist, I simply believe in one less God than a Christian does. I get kind of aggrivated when I see Christains spouting things about God and Creation, like their creation story is the *only* one. There have been hundreds of creation stories, and thousands of God's worshiped over the last several thousand years. What makes you think yours is any different or special than any other God? What makes your creation story valid, and the others simply myths? Just something for you to think about. |
