Sir Isaac Newton, had invited a scientist-friend of his, a man who professed atheism to dine with him. Seeking to corner his friend with his own arguments, Newton placed a model of the solar system on his table and invited his friend to view it. Upon examining it, Newton’s friend exclaimed, “what a marvellous craftsmanship!” Who fashioned this exquisite model?” Newton replied casually, “This model has no maker, it materialised from nothing.” Disbelief written large on his face, the friend asked, “What do you mean?” To this, Newton smiled and replied, “How can you my friend, insist that this model has to have a maker, while vehemently denying the existence of a divine Creator?”

I believe that the universe had a huge process of evolution and transformation,but what about the concept of existance?Did the existance of creation just came out of nothing?Couldn't there be a source or a force that was responsible for this existance?

Oh yes God didn't come from anywhere by the way,if God is often described as the infinite than he has no beginning and that emplies that if God is the Supreme Creator nobody had to create Him,and yes I can call this source God why not,if is responsible for Creation might as well call him Creator.And this killing in the name of God is a myth people dont kill in the name of God but in the name of there own imagination.Pray yes is matter of faith,but anyway even science proves it helps the person itself.

Human logic is to limited to understand Infinite,so what just because is beyond our understanding does that mean we should deny it?I personally think agnostic make more sense and logic,and nobody answered how can a creation not have a Creator?

It can't. Not only that, but the Creator can only be found in his creation. It is amazing to me that God let himself be known through his creation, but men instead look for him in the ancient creations of men. Talk about looking for God in all the wrong places! If you want to know the true God, then get to know his creation.

Who created God? Who knows, he doesn't tell us that through his creation, therefore it must not be important.

does now to not be a "creation" mean that there should be a "author" who produced a similar? creation might want to upward thrust up by organic reason and result as portion of the entire of technique of being it truly is the manifestation of the cosmos. Such implies an evolution, an evolving of that which exist as hostile to prompt springing up. Sceince, in complete settlement with the Vedic literature, tells us that the universe is cyclic in its formation and thereby infinite. If such is genuine, God as author will become the Watchmaker who outfitted the watched, wound it up and then set it down and left it to run or maybe as a similar ceases to operate, God will both use the former watch to make a clean one or will wind the unique one up back, etc. and ad infinitum. My prompt creators, at the same time with the certainly going on factors and power of which all that exist is composed were my mom and father and they could no longer unavoidably be understood as gods, yet at one time i'd have opined that they were such. namaste

There is a divine creator, supreme being, the Alpha and Omega.....
It is even written that he never sleeps and sustains the universe and us, every single night and day. It is written. They claim that they did not know the world was round in the Bible, Oh YES, but it is also written, WHO was the first author of anesthesia ? God himself when he put adam to sleep to use his rib for eve. Theres science in the Bible, Medicine,Creation,recreation. Clean and unclean meats, why they are, etc...People just want to believe they are God.He clearly says we are the LIGHT !! Ye are the light. Why would that be written ?
THINK about that hard! People, just dont get things together because they refuse the truth.

Why do you call that force 'god'?

There is a force pulling all atoms towards each other. Do you call it 'god'? Why not pray to it? Did it create the universe? Should you kill others in its name?

I've never understood this argument. I mean, If you say that everything that exists must exist because something created it, then doesn't it logically follow that something had to create God? but then they just say "no! nothing created God" "God has always been!" And this is where all logic is hereby abandoned. It just doesn't make sense.

Guess it could of always existed just as God does. It basicly saying God can't exist because something had to create him. He can't just come from nothing. Same for big bang theory, and same goes for our model in this story. So your point is mute.

One may suppose, if one wishes, that there was a creator which organized the laws of the universe since the big bang. But such a supposition is provably useless, so scientists don't bother with it.

You don't exactly one hundred percent sure know the truth, and you won't be able to find out untill you die. I believe it was God who created all of this but there are many other religions so yea it all depends on your religion and what you truly believe in.

Yes, and a giant hand pushes water down hill. Can you see why that need not be true? If so, then you already see the ridiculousness of Newton's argument.

This argument is as old as Newton and was refuted by Hume not long afterwards. Read 'Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion' for the devastating refutation of this type of reasoning.

Oh and Turtles to you.
