Alot of people try to connect the dots between religion an evolution and quite frankly I try to also because I do believe that species change over time. What I dont believe is the fact that God does not exist. Yes I know you guys would say that there is no proof that god exists but is there proof that god does not exist?
You say the Big Bang theory was some massive energy explosion that converted energy into mass (atoms etc) and those atoms somehow found their way to evolve and evolve into Humans and Jackasses. But where did that energy come from? A wise thing to say is energy cannot be destroyed nor created so basically thats saying that energy was there from the beginning but that would mean we can say the same that God was there from the beginning.
My question is where is the energy that supposedly started everything come from? You cannot say that it was there from the beginning because then that wouldn't be science........
We can't say that we can prove god does not exist because its beyond our imaginations. God is a supreme being meaning his mind is far different than our mind. If god gave us the ability to comprehend his existance then thats equivalent as saying our mind = gods mind and thats not true..........
ah, my favorite argument displaying why religion is trash
the problem with assigning God to creation is that it essentially is a cop out... we can't figure out what comes before, so we'll just come up with some arbitrary all-powerful being to be the creator of all that. what came before God then? nothing, because it's God? sounds like a cop out to me... you're caught in your own web. and you said if energy was there from the beginning then we can say that God was there too, but if they were both there, what is the need for God?
science SEEKS answers, where oftentimes religion basically gives up and makes up answers (note often, not always). scientists have an idea of what the universe was made up of less than 1 millionth of a second after the Big Bang. the evidence may be shaky, but at least they're trying to figure it out instead of just assigning God as the answer
