If for the sake of argument we accept a supernatural creator,what are the odds we would know anything about it

Question

Just try to imagine the billions of possibilities,mostly not even thought of yet some people on this tiny speck in the vast cosmos[the theists],are convinced they know what happened.Amazing.

Bradly-of course matter and energy came from somewhere but why would anyone on earth know from where.

I've allowed for acreator in the question,but why would anyone know anyuthing specific about him/her/it

Answer 1

"Humble" man is an arrogant, proud creature - a creature that believed the sun revolved around the earth - because man was the center of the universe. And then burned at the stake anyone brave enought to disagree.

The cosmos is a gigantic fly wheel making 10,000 revolutions a minute. Man is a sick fly taking a dizzy ride on it. Religion is the theory that the wheel was designed and set spinning to give him the ride.
— H.L. Mencken

The idea of an incarnation of God is absurd: why should the human race think itself so superior to bees, ants, and elephants as to be put in this unique relation to its maker? . . Christians are like a council of frogs in a marsh or a synod of worms on a dung-hill croaking and squeaking “for our sakes was the world created.”
— Julian The Apostate

I once heard the survivors of a colony of ants that had been partially obliterated by a cow's foot seriously debating the intention of the gods towards their civilization

I have observed that the world has suffered far less from ignorance than from pretensions to knowledge. It is not skeptics or explorers but fanatics and ideologues who menace decency and progress. No agnostic ever burned anyone at the stake or tortured a pagan, a heretic, or an unbeliever.

Answer 2

Especially what a deity looks like (humanoid male), name, interest in the human species, specific rules about human dietary habits, sexual practices, and cultural norms. It seems arrogant that in a universe of billions of galaxies and many unknowns, that religions could claim to understand a god.

I'm an atheist until evidence shows the existence of a god, but it always astounds me when people claim to know everything about a god, down to the rules. In a universe this big, a god would be extremely hard to define, much less comprehend.

87GN: I do not believe in aliens. I simply think that probability makes it likely that life exists elsewhere in a universe with billions of planets, some of them with liquid water. I remain to be swayed by the evidence. But I do not go around claiming that I know a supposed alien's appearance, behavior, and expectations for the human species, unlike religious preachers.

Answer 3

Is this the sort of reasoning the atheist now use in order to sleep at night? Instead of trying to find the truth (subconsciously knowing they might find answers they don't like) they tell themselves that there is no way of knowing.

That being said we are the only living creation, so why would it be so hard to believe that the Creator would let us know such things?

BTW, anyone who thinks there are aliens is guilty of believing in something that has no empirical evidence (something I'm sure they repeat to Christians all the time)

Answer 4

The same odds as an ant understanding the workings of a Boeing 747 that he hitched a ride on.

Answer 5

Those who believe in God can prove it logically.

There is no creation without the Creator.

Answer 6

Where else does matter come from?
Isn't it a scientific law that Matter cannot be Created or Destroyed?
I wonder where everything came from?

Answer 7

We wouldn't, unless He took the initiative and revealed Himself to us. He did.

Answer 8

I think we can best understand the "supernatural creator" by examining nature.

Answer 9

what exactly is the question?
