Why would ppl. not believe that God didn't create the Earth?

Question

Ppl. can't really believe in the big bang theory

Answer 1

People believe what they want due to the care other humans have given them as they grow up. If treated mean or nice, good or evil, a human can only form their own being by their experiences, and schooling. Parents, family, form the foundation, but the structure is built by his/her own choices made living in their community. So a house of cards or of solid stone - is determined by each person, if help is offered but rejected this choice is freely made, and the results will affect many, but there is little to do, except use force - and this is wrong, also.

Also GOD could easily use the big bang as well as all the laws to form our existence, our universe.
Why are you limiting GOD to only supernatural processes? GOD gifted humanity with the brain power to learn how GOD did things, and we have - gravity and other laws are from GOD - who else?
GOD gifted humanity the ability to heal our brothers, and feed and care for plants and animals. Everything is based on GOD gifting humanity the means to figure out our world.
GOD knows what GOD is doing, so trust in GOD more.

Answer 2

You recall that not long ago a bridge collapsed into the river? As the cars drove onto the bridge, the people in the cars had faith that the bridge would hold up, it did not.

You have 2 forms of faith at work in the world. Faith in a creator, and faith in science to answer all questions.

Science works from a point of none intervention of God, (so some wrongly assume science denies the existence of God), it does not.

Big bang was discredited some years ago by I think Cornell university working with data from Hubble telescope. They found that the universe is one complex, not an expanding thing.

Further research has shown that if you look as far electrically as you can look, the entire heavens at extreme distance is white, and it is white because it is blanketed with galaxies.

There are five things that have to happen for science to accept that something is credible, and these are all met in verse 1 of Genesis 1:1

If men honestly took the time to study the accuracy of the bible, they would have to admit it is correct. However if they don't look to account for what seems to be errors such as the existance of Pontius Pilot, then they can say that the bible is full of errors,

it comes down to faith, faith in a creator who loves you and will be with you in times of trouble, he walks with you daily, or faith in science, evolution not withstanding, and trusting that the bridge will not collapse.

Keep in mind, you have faith the electricity will be on when you wake up and if it is not,you assume it will come back on. That is faith. For some, believing there is a God who actually knows who they are, is a little frightening. After all, we all have skeletons in the closet.

Answer 3

Some of us can and do believe in the Big Bang theory. As for why, it varies. Personally, I was raised Lutheran, then I grew up and went to college, started studying other cultures and seriously thinking. That's putting it as briefly as possible. I haven't believed in God for quite a while, that's not going to change.

Answer 4

Look!!! Most of you are unsure so if you do not know than dont speck your offensive comments. God did create the Earth because he is the only one who is mighty and he is the only God. Theres evidence that God created earth and it is the Bible which was written by people whom God spoke to and who witnessed Jesus. So all of you unbelievers tell me is there an evidence that the big bang did happen because its only a lie that the devil put in peoples minds by using science. Dont let science trick you!!!!

Answer 5

Personally, I don't believe in God. I think the Bible is just a fiction (a pretty good one). Anyone with "adequate" education can write a book like that.

My guess is, most people already figured that God didn't create the Earth. Scientific advancement makes it hard for us to believe that God created the earth. But they still want to believe that he exists. I think people believe in God because it can help them take control of their lives. People might feel happy and secure that someone(God) is watching over them, loves them, and is willing to help them in a hostile world. It is like a parental influence. Excessive devotion to a religion is harmful and there is no doubt about that, but a mild devotion can help you become a better and healthier person, I guess.

Answer 6

because back in those days, people didn't have enough scientific explanation to how the earth was formed so they all believed there was a God that created. and they pass those believes down to their children and grand-children and so on. but of course nowaday we have science to back up all of our questions, but try explaining evolution to your parents...at the end you'll just be happier believing that God did create the world after all.

Answer 7

Actually I can...free will maybe? And reverse the question, why would people believe that God created the Earth? People can't REALLY believe in Genesis now can they? -_- Why should it matter to you what I believe, or anyone else for that matter?

Answer 8

Bit of a confusing double-negative there, but presumably you are asking why we don't believe in a creator deity - The short answer is that such an idea is logically impossible. Reasons are as follows:

1: Science gives us a way to distinguish between good ideas and bad ideas - i.e. to show which explanation is the most consistent with observable reality. Science shows us that great complexity does not just arise spontaneously. It is inconceivable that even the simplest bacterium could exist without something being responsible for the complexity of its structure, its biochemistry and so on. It would take the lifetimes of a billion universes for it to appear spontaneously, by pure chance - in fact it is probably safe to say that it simply could never happen. This goes all the more for human beings. It's surely no coincidence that the only thing that we regard as truly intelligent - the human brain - is also the most complex thing in the known universe. Intelligence requires enormous complexity, far beyond anything that could conceivably exist without something being responsible for its existence. By the same reasoning, it's infinitely more unlikely still that an intelligent entity capable of designing and creating an entire universe and everything in it could just exist from nowhere, from nothing, without anything being responsible for its existence. Complexity, and especially the massive complexity required for intelligence, can therefore only arise from an antecedent, non-intelligent process - In the case of life on Earth, this means biological evolution, a fact which is attested to by a vast amount of real objective evidence and valid argument. So, to the extent that science allows us to reliably distinguish between plausible ideas and implausible ideas, it effectively rules out the possibility of an intelligent entity as the uncaused cause of everything that exists.

2: We've known for thousands of years that the 'tri-omni' gods of classical monotheistic religions cannot exist. If an omnipotent, omniscient, omnibenevolent deity existed, then human evil could not exist. Since human evil unarguably does exist, the classical monotheistic deity cannot exist (objections about 'free will' notwithstanding).

3: Quantum Mechanics strongly suggests that nothingness is a state that cannot exist in reality, since that would be 100% deterministic, and QM says that existence is probabilistic rather than deterministic. Experimental evidence supports QM. If true, then this also precludes the existence of a creator, since it would be impossible to have a state of 'nothingness' from which a 'something' could be created.

4: David Hume proved that moral values are subjective - i.e. they describe a person's response to events, rather than objective properties of events themselves. Since morals are personal and subjective, there cannot be an external, objective source of moral values - Indeed, the idea is simply incomprehensible. Therefore, any god which is claimed to be the objective source of moral values cannot possibly exist. This includes the gods of most monotheistic religions, by their usual definitions.

5: Argument from design: If everything was designed by an intelligent creator then we would have no basis for identifying things that clearly *are* designed (things made by human beings) since we would have no non-designed (i.e. natural) things to compare them with. Therefore the natural world (everything that has not been designed by humans) must be non-designed, and therefore there can't be a designer god.

6: Anything that holds information or knowledge must be made of discrete parts, such as a brain (neurons and their connections) or a computer (memory locations). Anything that is made of parts cannot be self-existent - it must be made of something pre-existing. Therefore an intelligent entity cannot be self-existent and cannot be the source of everything that exists.

Answer 9

Taking out the double negative:

"Why would ppl. believe that God create the Earth?"

Pass.

Read up on it. Here are some pretty heavy sites for you to look at. Sites from the encyclopedia, NASA and Berkeley college Cosmology department. Brilliant people believe in the Big Bang. Maybe you should ask yourself just why you do not believe in it, since all the educated and intelligent people do.
