Answer 2

Argument of Design

The origin of the Argument by Design is a feeling that the existence of something as incredibly intricate as, say, a human is so improbable that surely it can't have come about by chance; that surely there must be some external intelligence directing things so that humans come from the chaos deliberately.

But if human intelligence is so improbable, surely the existence of a mind capable of fashioning an entire universe complete with conscious beings must be immeasurably more unlikely? The approach used to argue in favor of the existence of a creator can be turned around and applied to the Creationist position.

This leads us to the familiar theme of "If a creator created the universe, what created the creator?", but with the addition of spiralling improbability. The only way out is to declare that the creator was not created and just "is" (or "was").

From here we might as well ask what is wrong with saying that the universe just "is" without introducing a creator? Indeed Stephen Hawking, in his book "A Brief History of Time", explains his theory that the universe is closed and finite in extent, with no beginning or end.

The Argument From Design is often stated by analogy, in the so-called Watchmaker Argument. One is asked to imagine that one has found a watch on the beach. Does one assume that it was created by a watchmaker, or that it evolved naturally? Of course one assumes a watchmaker. Yet like the watch, the universe is intricate and complex; so, the argument goes, the universe too must have a creator.

The Watchmaker analogy suffers from three particular flaws, over and above those common to all Arguments By Design. Firstly, a watchmaker creates watches from pre-existing materials, whereas God is claimed to have created the universe from nothing. These two sorts of creation are clearly fundamentally different, and the analogy is therefore rather weak.

Secondly, a watchmaker makes watches, but there are many other things in the world. If we walked further along the beach and found a nuclear reactor, we wouldn't assume it was created by the watchmaker. The argument would therefore suggest a multitude of creators, each responsible for a different part of creation (or a different universe, if you allow the possibility that there might be more than one).

Finally, in the first part of the watchmaker argument we conclude that the watch is not part of nature because it is ordered, and therefore stands out from the randomness of nature. Yet in the second part of the argument, we start from the position that the universe is obviously not random, but shows elements of order. The Watchmaker argument is thus internally inconsistent.

Apart from logical inconsistencies in the watchmaker argument, it's worth pointing out that biological systems and mechanical systems behave very differently. What's unlikely for a pile of gears is not necessarily unlikely for a mixture of biological molecules.

Answer 3

Fact: Evolution cannot work by 'random mutation'.
Fact: The statistical probability of life is about 10^-29 - far too small to actually occur randomly within the timeframe of the present universe.
Fact: The beginning phase of the Big Bang had to have a trigger.
Fact: Only a loving Intelligence based in hyperspace could possibly bring the universe we see into existence. Random chance is an insufficient explanation for it.

Answer 4

Ok, here are some facts for you.

Fact: There is a universe.
Fact: There are galaxies within the universe.
Fact: There are planets and stars within those galaxies.
Fact: We are on one of those planets.
Fact: There are trees, plants, animals, water, dirt, fire,
elements, and minerals on this planet.
Fact: Everything on this planet has either been
created through the process of production or
through the process of reproduction.
Fact: Recorded human history only exists for a few thousand
years.
Fact: All of our worldly science and history points to this one
unavoidable truth. Nothing that has ever existed
on this earth has come here without either the
process of production or reproduction causing
their existence. EVEN IF we, as humans, evolved from
some microscopic organism, which resulted from
some spontaneous combustion which resulted
in some sort of "big bang", the elements that
created the "big bang" had to have been
created by someone or something. So who or what
created those elements?

Fact: It had to be something greater than ourselves, greater
than anything we've ever seen, greater than anything
we've ever produced or ever seen produced.

Fact: It had to be GOD.

Answer 5

The Bible tells us that God has clearly revealed Himself in nature (Romans 1:20) and in the hearts of people (Ecclesiastes 3:11). The problem is that the human race is sinful; we all reject this knowledge of God and rebel against Him (Romans 1:21-23). Apart from God's grace, God would give us over to the sinful desires of our hearts, allowing us to discover how useless and miserable life is apart from Him. This He does for those who reject Him (Romans 1:24-32).
In reality, it is not that some people have not heard about God. Rather, the problem is that they have rejected what they have heard and what is readily seen in nature. Deuteronomy 4:29 proclaims, “But if from there you seek the LORD your God, you will find him if you look for him with all your heart and with all your soul.” This verse teaches an important principle: everyone who truly seeks after God will find Him. If a person truly desires to know God, God will make Himself known.

Answer 6

Hmmm. Well, there IS, if you want there to be - how's that for paradoxical? There is no definitive proof that there is or is not. Being a subjective topic, people of faith see and feel God in many ways, at many times. Atheists, who choose not to believe in a God, assign all metaphysical "feelings" as supernatural bunk. I have always thought that - perhaps you get what you want, in theology. If you believe in pure nothingness, perhaps that's a chosen reality you ultimately inherit. If you choose to believe in a God, and pass through life with that God at your side and in your code of behavior, then that's one's chosen reality, in this life and perhaps even in others.

In other words, the fact of God is right before your eyes, in every sort of way, and it's up to you to CHOOSE your own interpretation! Most religions will tell you that God designed it that way - that God wishes for each human to interpret and choose his presence, free will being the nexus of the human mind. It's a complicated subject, isn't it?

Answer 7

Your birth is something that happened to you, like waking up from a sleep. If you determine that the Universe is eternal using science, (the concept of infinity) then all are gods as no one can die (a god is immortal). God is when you can identify your self with the whole Universe, if you can't then no matter you go on with it anyway. Its not the middle eastern concept of god its Pantheism

Answer 8

Free will is impossible under the Church-Turing Thesis, as the mind could be computed entirely by a two-symbol Turing Machine with sufficient numbers of states.

Without going much more in-depth than that, the idea of a deity who creates self-aware beings who do not have free will is sadistic and illogical.

Answer 9

You will not get any facts. The only way to validate or substantiate the existence of a supreme being is through belief. Belief can be built from facts, but there is ultimately a leap of faith necessary to acknowledge the existence of God.

Answer 10

-Why is it that EVERY CIVILIZATION, ever to exist, has had such a strong belief in a superpower. Without exception.

-Why do most of us ACROSS the world and ACROSS CULTURES uncannily have some common concepts of heaven and hell, doomsday etc.

I DO NOT want to believe in the concept of God and I do not know ANYBODY who questions the very basis more than i do. But there are a few things i dont have answers to, and the above 2 points are amongst them.

Answer 11

Well one must look to them self for the answer. One must be willing to accept life for what it is.
If there is a God, then its up to that person ,who questions it. to find his own way. sometimes if one just looks around, they would be surprised with the answer they may find,that lies within each one of us.
But you must look to yourself first.
And search your soul. As for facts, well that will be kind of hard. because man does not have any set facts,that God does exist. thats why it called faith,
if one has nuthin to believe, then they lose all hope in life. thats why one must believe in themself first. then all else will follow.
