Substantiate how creation denies his creator.
A fool says in his heart 'there is no God'

I've yet to see proof of creation.
If there is a creation, there is a creator. This is implicit in the definition of 'creation'. However, there is no evidence so far that indicates the universe was created.
Which reminds me, I STILL need to do my Blasphemy Challenge video... wonder if there are any more free copies left of the video.

Beta Fish: First, I don't believe in any deity at all. Secondly, you have an annoying point... if someone was raised all their lives to believe that dew was leprechan urine, every dewy morning would be proof to them that leprechans really did exist. I suppose to someone who believes the universe is a creation, the existence of the universe is proof enough; they cannot fathom the concept of it being uncreated.
Funny that I can fathom it both ways but the creationists can't even accept the non-created hypothetical for the sake of discussion.

wow. that is some jump to conclusion. Perhaps you should research and try to understand why it is that so many people think organized religion is a bunch of crap. I know no one that claims they were not created some how, some way. Although debates of how and why we exist rage on, many people shed what they are taught through the generations and take a fresh look at the whole 'god' story and find it full of holes. Therefore, logically, people do not turn their back on god, they dismiss the stories that they have been told by other humans as inaccurate based on 2000 of gathered knowledge.
People that can see past the manipulative nature of religion and people that can look past the 'my god is more compassionate than your god and if you disagree again I will pound you' can see life for what it is rather than for what it is not.
Religion is, by nature, a hypocrisy. that's a fact that is hidden by blind faith.
So all in all, it's called being intelligent enough to know when you are being misled, intentionally or not. Perfect example is Santa. We come into this world being lied to and they call it cute. But with Santa, easter bunny, etc you grow into finding out it is not real. With religion, they claim the consequences come after you die which creates fear. Fear is not love.

Creation presumes a creator. Creationists argue that "because there is something, there must be a God". That's akin to the argument that because stars are in the sky, and things fall, that there must be something holing up the sky, therefore Atlas must exist.
In a logical argument, one goes from logical premise to question, to the next logical premise. The reasoning should have gone like this: This world exists; we can see, touch, feel and smell things. Why is this so? There is no evidence as yet to answer the question "why"; it remains a question in the minds of all those who don't wish to assume that the answer doesn't have to come from investigation, but came from the presumed designer himself.
Science and philosophy question and offer possibilities, either to be proven or disproved. Religion, on the other hand, at least most of them, assume the answer to have been revealed. Creationism, rather than seeking an answer, posits that they already have it, and rather than proving, opt to convice.

I asked one, a survey, based on Dawkins's scale of belief (though he copied that from elsewhere).
Otherwise none. The God Delusion is a passable read, it is a very simplified guide to the matter and is aimed at a popular market rather than an academic one. Nothing wrong with that. But the book is imperfect as a basis for argument. Reading it is a good idea and excellent for anyone already doubting, or who wants to find out what "the opposition" thinks. Give it a try.

None of mine are since I have never read it. You are assuming that a thing is a creation when you say "Substantiate how creation denies his creator." That cannot be assumed.

None.
The God Delusion clears up a lot of them.
We could ask for refutations of certain arguments but you people just don't have any.

Do you see? Saying something doesn't make it so, cretin.

There is no evidence that there is a god. It isn't rational or reasonable to believe in things without any evidence to back it up. You would be stuck with hundreds of thousands of gods and everything else that human imagination could come up with.
Not believing in god, is the same as not believing in Odin, Zeus, Ra, Hera, The Great Spirit, Osiris, The Flying Spaghetti Monster and all the others. I would be no less surprised of evidence of Odin was found than I would be if evidence of your god was.

"religion is Spiritual fraud" - Jesus Christ
"religion is the Worst invention of humanity" - Jesus Christ
Create a private, personal, direct, divine relationship with Our Creator and save your Soul from religion.
Only with Our Creator's Love and Peace will we be Truely Free!
Without God, there is No Love; Without religion, there are No Wars!
The minds of christians are the easiest to be manipulated, especially when it come to Spiritual matters and the Truth - christian have believed lies for over 2000 years!
Its time to believe in the Truth and not religious lies and deceptions!

Creation is evidence of a Creator....
All creation sceams out the wonderful glory of a Creator...only the completely blind can't figure is out.
"For the invisible things from the creation of the world ARE CLEARLY SEEN, being understood from those things that exist, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that THEY ARE WITHOUT EXCUSE".-

Human is the creator of gods. Try to deny that one.
