Nooooo! Not the watchmaker analogy! Please!
2006-06-22 08:55:04 · update #2
i could tell you about the watchmaker now....
hmz, that makes me wonder about something. what would happen if a watchmaker was wrong, and he designed the watch wrong,the watch would not run forward in time, but backwards.
so, time would stop, and would run backwards from now on.
hmz, we could stand up from the coffin at our funeral, walk passed some weirdly crying people, go to a bar, spitt out a beer into a glass and receive money for it.
we could lie on the beach to burn off that weird brown color.
a drug-addict, when he's really stoned, he could suck some heroin out of his blood with a needle and sell it for money...with that money he would buy a car-radio and install it in somebody else his car.
when you send a little price to a newspaper, they send you the solution to a difficult puzzle.
we can get money from schools to get rid of some of our knowlegde.
in Africa they would collect clothes, food, etc, and they could send it to rich people. in rich countries they would make a tv-show about that where they would call people to give them money.
or bill clinton could take a very dirty dress out of monica lewinsky's closet, and vaccuum it with his *****.
ufff, so many options if the watchmaker would have been wrong.

It's like finding a watch on a beach: it's so complex there had to be a watchmaker. And where did HE come from? He's so complex that HE must have had a watchmaker's watchmaker. And HE, of course is more complex still.. Guess there actually CAN'T only be one God if you believe in the whole complexity means external intelligence theory. Complexity theory can only "prove" that there has to be an infinite regression of Gods, sort of like... umm... a polytheistic religion perhaps?

Let me get this straight. Everything was designed, so, between God and people,?
Nothing just happened, right?
the workings of life and the Design of creation are a little more complex than the boiled down version you asked. try this for a start.
the hard thing to understand for limited finite man is that god would, could & did build in free choice for us. Science calls it "Action-Reaction" our decisions do not throw a monkey wrench in God's ways or His design. God knows every infinte possiblity and chain reaction from that choice.
however in mans understanding one simple thing causes our plans to crumble like a house of cards.

God created everything. There is nothing that is that was not made of him. Everything consist of him.
God knows the end from the beginning. Nothing takes him by surprise. By his foreknowledge he knows exactly what will happen and when it will happen. But at the same time, He created man a free moral agent that has the right of choice. The choice of man determines his fate and his life. Everything about man depend on the choice he makes.

Well, a toughie but I can handle it.
If we say that we evolved (athestic point of view) it proves all our laws of science incorrect. It has been proven logically that there is someone who created us. The "someone" we call God, who is not a part of what we are living in , that is :time. He started the time and He will end it. What is interesting is that we have an INTELLEGENT God who designed us perfectly. People sometimes go nuts when they think about existence and God but whats most imporatnt is : God created us, and if you make something you adore it, dont you? Likewise God loves us, like a parent. We have always existed as a part of him but now that we are here we have a problem in understanding that every question we ask is somewhere within us. Lets live our 100% till we are here for ourselves and for our perfect parent: God.

Design happened in the beginning. there has been no new creation since then. Not changes in the original natural order.
Show me a legitimate transitional phase in the fossil record.
They tell it takes millions of years to make coal, but there is new coal on Mt. Saint Helens. For every lie there are multiple truthful answers.

As I just said in another question:
People who use this argument KNOW that it can't be true. They claim that everything is so complex that it has to have a designer. Oh, except for the most complex thing of all, of course, god. He doesn't have a creator. He just is. Hypocrites

G.O.D. is the Grand Organizing Design of the universe, which is really the self-organizing property of matter and energy that comes into play when matter and energy reach a certain level of complexity.

God was designed by the Yokohama corporation don't you get it? Something had to come first otherwise it was just infinite time, space, matter and energy reacting logically. Oh.

God is infinite, and was here eternally before the world began. He designed the universe, and everything in it.
