If God did not "create" the heavens and the earth, and all that abounds in it... if all of it is a constant product of this continuous evolutionary cycle... then WHAT started the cycle? What evolved?
Same question applies everywhere... Big Bang... WHAT BLEW UP?
I hate to sound like now I'm picking at people, hoping for an argument, but I guess I am. Ah well. I apologize.
I know this is not an "Atheism" post... but it's kind of hard to have one discussion with out the other.
I got attatcked once on the OKP boards for saying that Atheists have absolutely no leg to stand on, and are not using their heads in the slightest bit. It's very accusatory, I know. I'd be upset if someone said it to me... But I just can't back down from that statement.
If there is a God, then God created what we have here.
We know it so clearly in our hearts and yet are so scared of what it might imply about our behaviour.
I can't imagine what it is like for God to watch us, LITERALLY denying a creators existence when WE EXIST! WE exist, and have the balls to suggest that maybe NOTHING made us exist... ahh.. i'm at work and getting in trouble now... gotta get off the computer... grrrr!!
peace.
