say you are in an art museum and there is this beautifull painting.?

Question

You can deduce that this painting had to have an intelligent creator because of the complexities of it. Somebody had to hold the brush to make the brush strokes. So why is it so hard to believe that the universe, being more complex than a painting, had an intelligent creator.

okay sanji. I'm not trying to convert anyone I know this question isn't going to convert anyone. The whole point to me asking is just to make people think.

Also, to everyone else, my whole point was not to "prove" evolution false (though I do believe it to be false). My point was just trying to point people in what I believe to be the right direction.

By the way even the stupidest person or even a field mouse has some measure of intelligence.

I know no one that the question I just asked is not going to convert anyone. But I just want to warn you. If, in our lifetime, a vast amount of people just disappear without any kind of explanation, Know that it is the rapture and god has called his people up to be with him. This will be your last chance to give your life over to him because at the end of the tribulation (which is supposed to happen after the rapture and last seven years) jesus is supposed to return and give his final judgement.

Remember after the rapture you have seven years to repent or you are...damned.

I would rather die believing in god and find out that there isn't one than die not believing in god and find out that there is

Answer 1

i like that

Answer 2

North-east London has the William Morris homestead museum as properly. yet you won't be able to get something greater suited than those in critical London, it particularly is incredibly purely 40 minutes max removed from North London by tube. I talk with the nationwide Gallery, Tate present day, Tate Britain, Wallace sequence, V & A Museum, or perhaps the sale rooms of Sotheby's in New Bond street whilst they have pre-sale exhibitions ... all unfastened. Why ask for museums in North London whilst the diverse best suited museums interior the international are purely 40 minutes away in critical London?

Answer 3

No painting is a creator. To create means to make something out of nothing. I do oil painting. Believe me, the nothing is getting more and more expensive by the day.
A painting weighs a few pounds - - - not hard to believe someone can make it. . The entire universe is far beyond what the human mind can imagine. How can a normal person see any similarity ?

Answer 4

Because man makes man-made objects, natural (read that again- NATURAL- Objects must be made by a supernatural entity? Doesn't fly, Sweet'ums

Thanks for playing, though.

EDIT:

OKAY, BORAT.

You do realize that you say the same thing, right.

Simply replace the word "universe" With "God/" See how that is the same argument taken just one strep further, to something even more complex, and therefore more in need of a creator. What was that about logic?

Answer 5

So you have an opportunity to sit down over coffee with the artist and you ask him about his works .During the course of the conversation you ask him about his parents
He tells you he has none.You express your sympathies about him being an orphan .He tells you again that he never had any parents -ever .
Realizing that you are dealing with an unstable and possibly dangerous person you politley end the conversation , pay for the coffee and leave .

Answer 6

Well, that is just a take off the whole watchmaker argument. Is the painting alive? Nope. Can it respond to the environment? Nope.

Well, then. You can't compare a painting with living things.

As for the universe in general (disregarding life, which can be explained through evolution) - who says it's intelligently designed?

Answer 7

If we go by your logic than it becomes clear that if God exists then He too must have a creator, just because every complex thing needs a creator, just like the painting you talk about.

So who created God then?

Answer 8

Because it isn't in an art museum, it's in an observatory, and you can see the edges of the universe for yourself, through a telescope. It's cold, distant, and primarily gaseous, with a whole lot of nickel-iron. No analogies are needed to explain reality.

Answer 9

Science

Answer 10

okay, now I know that several of you have heard the same sermon or read the same book, because, although this is a very good point, I think it is a little overdone. If you really have a question to ask pertaining to anything religious, please feel free to ask it. If not, shut up. Don't preach. Don't try to change anyone's mind with your pseudo regurgitated reasoning. I'm a Christian and I'm tired of it.

Answer 11

There is such order, complexity and beauty in the universe that we know it didn't just happen, since disorder does not just become order, complexity and beauty without help. Some refuse to see or accept this. How sad for them.
