I do believe in an almighty living force - we are all connected by cultures of bacteria that positively fill our surroundings, all specialised to their one little task just like the cells of our own bodies, with isolated ecosystems operating as complex communities, which live or die by how well they in turn do their specialist task - the end result? One ultimate organism: The planet.

You can indeed make something out of nothing; read up on virtual particles. Also, not everything has a creator: a uranium atom will sometimes spit out an alpha particle without any motivation whatever. The rest of your argument is usually called the anthropic argument; it is an example of a class of logic errors called ad hoc. There are billions of trillions of stars, which could have planets suitable for human life; it is not surprising that there is at least one that does.

Hate monger. How dare you judge other people and what they choose to believe or not believe. Another religious zealot who believes because they think something, everyone else must also. All religions are manmade and the ones practiced today are certainly a far cry from what they were centuries ago. Remember when you die, you cease to exist. Get over it.

Boe Boe Boe.... im not sure where to begin.
what does the idea that you cant make something from nothing have to do with God? is God immune to this? also, why cant matter have just always been?
the order that we percieve in the world also does nothing to prove the existnace of God. how can you not see how beautiful and amazing nature is?
i think basicly what you are saying is that you knwo that God is real because you can see beautiful and orderly things which you think can only have come from God. My point of view is that there is no more reason to believe these things came from God than to believe that they are just naturally occuring. that they are just the way things are

I think that for most people, it's difficult to believe in a higher power (whether you choose to call that power "almighty living force," "God," etc.) because they want tangible proof. They want to be able to examine, study, probe, ask questions that will produce verifiable scientific evidence within our (perhaps limited) scientific realm. To say that there's a God, but that we can't directly interact with Him under controllable labratory conditions means to them that God, in all likelyhood, doesn't exist.
To them, the "beautiful universe" around us was the result of random molecules coming together at certain moments that just *happened* to create stars, planets, life, etc.
(And just as a side note, one designation from the Bible for God is "Heavenly Father"; He, too, has parents who created him, who have parents who created them, who...)

Yep. Those scientists who went on with their research when every good christian knew that disease was caused by demons or bad humors in the blood.
Now they spread there lies about this virus and that virus...bacterial infections, and something called an "immune system" And all their "medicine"? Yeah, that sounds real....

Because we are ALL full of enough ego to be afraid to admit no one will ever know the full story on this mess of mass and energy called the universe--of which we are a relatively microscopic part.

i don't mean to answer the question w/ a question, but why is it hard for humans to ignore the feeling inside of us that asks us, "is there really a creator?" c'mon face it - none of us are perfect. i think that's why we all yearn for a more perfect being than us. If God is the one who created everything, i mean everything, he has all the power right? We can't limit Him wihtin our own understanding.

I agree with you except that some scientists now believe in God as the creator of the universe,as you said ...something had to be there to create something so therefore that something had to be a supreme being....GOD.

If everything you're saying is true, then you're facing the biggest problem of all, because then YOU have to explain how the most advanced, complex, intelligent being in the history of the universe came from nothing (which is basically what religion says).
