If a house had to have a designer / creator, how could the complicated universe, just have happen by chance?

Answer 1

I'll actually answer your question. Given an initial low entropy state, a physical system is capable of spontaneously generating an ordered subsystem at the expense of an over all increase in the entire system's entropy. Life is the most complex example known to day because order with it, once formed, is preserved by self-replication, but there are many others (like a snowflake).

Now, please go learn what all those big words mean before inquiring further. Not doing so is what makes Creationists so annoying.

Answer 2

It is not a logical step to say, because a house has a designer/creator that the universe must also have a creator. THe question could then be extended to if the universe has a creator, who or what created the creator, and so on.
As for finding a watch in the middle of nowhere and knowing had a creator, what if you found something else like a carrot, you would have to apply the same logic and argument no matter what you found.

Answer 3

Agree with Q-man. Disagree with Eri.

Following Eri's logic... if I were observing an an automated assembly line from a certain vantage point that prevented me from seeing the "whole picture," I might conclude that machines did everything and that there was thus no need for human intervention in the manufacture of a car. Discovering a mechanism does not preclude the possibility of intent behind it. And where did the mechanism come from? Have they always been? Perhaps, but it can't be proved.

The "argument from ignorance" can go both ways. Athiests say they cannot see the need for a creator and threfore there must not be one. That is an argument from ignorance too.

Human knowledge is always incomplete and we have and continue to act in ignorance. No matter which side one might lean towards on the answer to the question posed, it would have to be based on a little supposition and trust in something beyond proof. Or as LeAnne calls it - faith.

Answer 4

Not chance. Physical laws. We know how these things could have happened naturally, and we see it happening in other parts of the universe. We don't see any evidence for a designer when we know what we're talking about (no 'MADE IN TAIWAN' stickers).

This is known as the 'argument from ignorance'. Basically, it's saying 'I don't know how this could have happened, so a supernatural force must have done it'. Fortunately, we have very smart people who can figure out how it happened. And once we know easily how it could have happened naturally, there's no reason to invoke a supernatural force.

Answer 5

I am brand new, here; so I doubt if I can get this site’s text editor to duplicate the answer I just happen to have been preparing in WordPerfect for several months. I am referring to my very own Fractal Foam Model of Universes. The long version, intended for those already familiar with the Fatio-LeSage explanation of the cause of gravity, is over ten pages; for typical grad students, I should make it at least twenty pages. I reduced it to two pages for the benefit of a PhD, who specializes in the physics of foam; I’m afraid it may take him a lifetime to fully understand it—if he can stop laughing long enough to try. This is not the place to lay out my whole conjecture, but I’ll give you the part most relevant to your question:

There was no Big Bang; the universe is infinite in time, distance and scale. Apart from the obvious differences of scale (about 10^60 for distance), our ether is absolutely identical to the foam-like structure revealed in the recent 3D survey of half a million galaxies; both foams are made of bubble walls composed of galaxies held together by gravity; both foams are expanding; the expansion causes bubbles to pop. When a bubble pops, it radiates highly energetic P-waves thru the foam.

The bubbles in each foam are of random sizes; given a large enough volume of random foam, you are guaranteed to find various size blobs where the average bubble size is slightly but significantly greater or smaller than average. When a P-wave passes thru such a random blob, its speed and direction are altered; if the P-wave exits the blob in a different direction than the way it came in, it must impart momentum to the blob, which then drifts thru the foam. The motion of such a blob resembles the motion of 2D distortion as you pass a weak lens across a sheet of graph paper.

The blobs drift in random directions until they just randomly form groups which happen to have the property of either fusing two P-waves into one with double the energy, or splitting the more energetic P-waves into the smaller varieties. These complexes of blobs are chaotic attractors because they look either brighter or darker to one another than the background of P-waves of the particular kind that each complex either fuses or splits. Therefore, the complexes either attract or repel one another as explained by Fatio & LeSage. Each of the roughly 200 known subatomic particles, and then some, as well as all the know forces, and them some, can be accounted for by these chaotic attractors in the foamy structure of the ether—though I have not yet succeeded in doing so; that is a problem better suited to methodical, disciplined minds than to my own brand of iconoclastic heresy.

That’s how the universe progresses from a perfectly random foam to a foam full of chaotic attractors. If you know anything about fractals, you know that extreme complexity develops spontaneously from utter simplicity without the necessity of divine intervention; at some scale, there is a return to simplicity and the process repeats infinitely. Our own Ether Foam is the Cosmic Foam of a sub-universe, which has its own Ether Foam, etc.; and our Cosmic Foam is the Ether Foam of a super-universe, which has its own Cosmic Foam, etc.

Answer 6

i think of if it got here approximately by possibility there would be existence doping up in all places. i replaced into gazing a prepare the different evening it replaced into stated as what's lacking from our universe and it replaced into discussing what holds are universe mutually so far ninety% of outer area is un accounted for in 1970 they stated as that lacking piece dark count nicely interior the mid ninety's they found that dark count purely takes up yet another 20% so interior the previous few years they have desperate that what takes up something could be dark potential. no person is familiar with what God appears like. the bible says we are made in gods image yet i do no longer think of its a actual image yet a non secular image now right here back no person is familiar with what a spirit appears like. or perhaps what it relatively is. our physique's has its on electric device as quickly as we die that potential is long previous. i pick GOD as dynamic potential being neither male nor woman yet on the comparable time is extremely useful and clever. so why could no longer this dark potential as technological expertise calls that's truly GOD. the reason they confer with it as dark is by technique of the fact they cant see it yet they know truly that it relatively is there.

Answer 7

Age old question.
It reminds me of the story of the man who finds a watch on a path while walking in the woods, he doesn't see anyone else around, but he absolutely knows that someplace there's a watchmaker.
Yet when he stares out at all of the complexity of the earth and the universe surrounding it, he is not so convinced that there is a creator.
I doubt we will ever have a valid and verifiable answer to this one - that's why it's called faith.

Answer 8

thats the ultimate question of the universe. See, religion or science to conclude your own answer.
