Everything is caused by something other than itself.
Therefore the universe was caused by something other than itself.
The string of causes cannot be infinitely long.
If the string of causes cannot be infinitely long, there must be a first cause.
Therefore, there must be a first cause, namely God.
Everything that has a beginning in time has a cause.
The universe had a beginning in time.
Therefore, the universe has a cause.
The only thing that could have caused the universe is God (because the cause has to be spaceless and timeless).
Those who disagree with this argument do not believe there was a beginning of time. Doubters believe that the scientific account of the big bang did not occur as empirically proven by science, rather there was time infinitely in the past.
The human mind is unable to image a universe where there is no space and time. Image a box that has nothing in it. The space in that box is empty, but this does not mean that there is no space in the box. The same with time; imagine a universe where there is no time that flows linearly. It is impossible to image. The way our minds interpret our experience is by having space and having time. Those who believe that time is infinite, call upon their human experience, which tells them that imagining the contrary is impossible.

New scientific evidence from Time Magazine in June 2001 shows that the big bang occurred 15 billion years ago. Before the big bang there was no space and time. It is impossible for our human minds to comprehend what happened before the big bang, refer to the box again, we can only think of empty space not no space. It is also impossible for us to think of time that does not flow literarily. Time started when the big bang occurred and the big bang occurred everywhere at one time. Then all the matter and energy that the universe can use during its existence was created at the time the big bang occurred. A type of anti-matter pushes all the galaxies and solar systems away from each other. The speed at which this occurs is constantly getting faster, pushing galaxies and solar systems further and further apart. But these galaxies and solar systems are not moving into space that never existed. Outer space must be thought of as having positive curvature. A good way to image the way outer space is shaped by taking a piece of paper and making both ends touch each other. If something traveled in a straight line going further and further into space, it would in theory end up back where it started. So again in theory, a galaxy could end up exactly where it started at the dawn of time if it kept moving in the same direction. This will not happen because before this could occur, all the energy that the big bang created will be used up. Eventually the universe would enter a dark era. The only thing that will be left is cosmic waste. There will be no light and no energy 10^100 trillion years from now, just burnt-out cylinders of stars and dead planets. Eventually, all the matter will collapse into black holes then the black holes will disintegrate that matter into particles. These particles will bind together to form big atoms larger than the size of our universe. That’s the end. There will still be space, there will still be time, and there was a beginning to both. Something must have caused this universe to exist and the cause has to be both spaceless and timeless. The cause had to have been able to function where there is no space, which is unimaginable, and with no time which is also unimaginable.

It was not a freak coincidence that life can flourish on Earth and there was a cause to the universe that our planet is apart of. Barr showed evidence of how anthropic coincidences such the process of how chemicals came into existence and the necessity of quantum mechanics were both needed to function exactly as they do to allow life to exist. With scientific evidence showing how the universe both began and how it will end proves that the universe had a beginning in time but will have no end in time. Everything with a beginning in time has a first cause that the first cause of the universe had to be both timeles

No. For this simple reason - if your reasoning were correct, god would also need a cause. But you claim he didn't. So I claim the universe didn't. It did, but you don't seem to care much about science, so I won't waste my time explaining further.

ok if everything has a cause what caused god. dont use science to back up religion, and then once you get to religion say that science doesnt apply.

and yes, it was a freak coincidence. we can take the key components of earths amosphere and put them in a test tube and add electricity and we get organic compounds which could have easily formed life. theres well over 150 quintillion stars, the chance that life exists only on earth is 1/150,000,000,000,000,000,000
and how the hell do u think you know how the universe will end. science has been baffled by how it will end and you seem to know for sure. and atoms the size of our unvierse? that makes NO SENSE! you saying that atoms will be ripped apart and then by the same thing that ripped them apart be put back together.

your just a nutcase that tries to make anything and everything fit into religion, even if you have to twist your veiw of the science, which is fact, until its not even science anymore.

well if (s)he has got no time and space
then it should be no issue for astronomy :)

and you have no imagination for what reasons
more, than presumed, I could disagree with you.

for the existence of a universe there is simply no
god necessary. so in respect for your belief you may
wish not further to stress that spiritually irrelevant detail.

God only exits in the human mind. So, we are ALL God. Your God is different than my God. Everyone's God is different. Yes, God exists; if you so choose to call yourself that.

Yes, but we can't see God.. He is the best and almighty creator...
