Another fun god-paradox for all the boys and girls...?

Question

So theists believe in a god because they believe the Universe needed a creator... i.e. that it couldn't just have always been there or poofled in out of nothingness...
... So who created god? Or was he always there / poofled in out of nothingness? ...
And for that matter, once you've justified god's appearance in existence, how about justifying why the same couldn't be true of the Universe itself in the first place... hence negating the need for a middle man.

^_^ ... Just one of the many amusing contradictions of theistic (simplistic) belief.

Yes... I know. Some people just can't handle thinking about questions like this, will spout off what they've been told by the guy with the white collar, and promptly escape the scene clutching defensively to their ignorance...... and THAT is what makes asking it all worthwhile! =D

Answer 1

That is God with a capital "G" not god. Have a nice day.

Answer 2

I believe in the God because when I see all of the beauty in the world I just cannot comprehend it all being random.No one created God, He always was. He is alpha and omega, beginning and end.The universe could have been here in the first place but I do not believe in the big bang theory any more than I believe I descended from an ape. If evolution occured why would it have just stopped. We could still use perfecting if you want to know the truth. I am not saying that science did not work hand in hand with God to make everything run smoothly but in the final analysis, God is where I place my faith. You are entitled to your opinion and I will not criticize it, but I would ask for the same respect to be given me.

Answer 3

i'm an atheist, yet i think of I genuinely have an answer. relax would not ought to intend "to take a ruin." it could mean "to resign." He made the universe in 6 days, and then he stopped. He did no longer take a ruin; he in simple terms stopped making issues. it quite is how the parable reads. look at it lower back. He did no longer commence making greater of the universe on the eighth day, so the "relax" day wasn't a ruin, yet a cessation of advent. Ha! That rhymed! I sound like a preacher!

Answer 4

we know that physical objects do not appear from nowhere. We have no reason to think this applies to non-physical entities as well. additionally, most people find it difficult to believe that the universe willed itself into existence. of course, we cannot fathom that nature of G-d, but it still seems intuitively more likely than the alternative.
(oh, and this isn't so much a god paradox as much a reality paradox. you'd be better off calling it a the cause-and-effect-paradox.)

Answer 5

Even the smallest child, when told that a god created the universe, will ask "Well who created god?". It takes years of brain-washing and suppression of critical thinking faculties to make them stop asking such a simple and obvious question, and recruit them into the shared delusion that a god exists.

Answer 6

You're just as curious as everybody else as to how the universe came into being. Poking fun at God-fearing christains doesn't help to support any ideas you have.

Answer 7

Good question, but unfortunately, no one will ever find out the real answer. Not even the good christians who think the answer is in their heaven. Remember all religion is based on faith, and faith is beleiving in something you'll never have proof of.

Answer 8

There are millions of non-existent entities thats always more perfect than existent entities, why? Because it's pretty easy to imagine a perfect enity if it is invisible (non-existent).

Answer 9

Well then. Which construct is correct? The atheist "poof" into existence or the creationist's "poof" into existence? Both are flawed.

Answer 10

Yeah thats not a hard paradox

And whats your problem, writin that crap in my question dude?

Answer 11

Yawn.
