creation PROVES the existance of God!!?

Question

I would like to know your honest opinion about my theory on how to prove that God exists. If God created everything from the earth to man and then created us in His image, how then can we not see creation itself. If our parents created us, their parents created them... so forth, then how is this in relation to ALL of the theories to how we got here. Whether by Darwins theory, to Organized Religions, Creation had to start somewhere. Our calendar started with Christ.. is this a fact? YES! 2007 AD (after death, BC= Before Christ) From as long as we know this calendar basis, who then did Christ try to prove He was from? Now if we can base our calendar and watch clocks off of this event of the death of Christ (which Darwin even lived by), then how can we not believe that His message was so important? Creation, proves that God exists, our timeline proves that we base our days off of Christ. My Faith shows Creation exists.

Answer 1

I am unmoved and still an Atheist. Back to the drawing board you go.

Answer 2

Nice try. Problem #1: there are several calendars in effect including two major ones among Christians (you do know that Jews, Muslims, Chinese and Orthodox Christians all have different calendars?) Even astronomers use a different one.
Problem #2: There is no way of proving the existence of God because any definition of God involves the ability to create anything in place. If I tell you that God created the entire universe between midnight and 4:20 am on November 13th, 1942 with the Bible being created at 2:10 am, there is absolutely no "evidence" you can pull up to deny me - If God can make a universe, God can certainly create people with memories before creation. This is no more impossible than Pentecostal Christians placing the creation at 4004 BC with dinosaur bones being placed by God (or Satan) in the rock for us to find.

Answer 3

Calendars are based off of the birth of Christ, but it has been shown, based on other historical events, such as the census (which sent Mary and Joseph to Bethlehem in the first place) to have taken place 4-6 years before initially believed, so the calendars are off.. Also, AD does not mean "after death" because he was approximately 33 years old at the time of his crucifiction, so we would be missing that length of time, it is Latin. I can't remember exactly what it is, but it's along the lines of Admus Dominus. Now, you may believe that Christ existed, and I will not argue the fact with you. I will even agree that you are correct, he did exist. I think what you're trying to say here is that Christ is the one and true savior. This is where I disagree with you. He may have been a prophet who came to speak what the Gods wanted us to hear, but being the one and only Savior... see... I disagree with you there... but... everyone is entitled to their own beliefs. I myself am Pagan. My roommate is a BornAgain Christian. I regularly talk with her about our differing religious views. My dad is Catholic and my mom Protestant, so I have had experiences with both views. I attended CCD and Sunday school regularly, which is why I know quite a bit about Christianity, despite my different views now. Hope this helps clear up some of your confusion. :) Goddess bless!

Answer 4

I should say that I had some trouble in understanding the meaning of your question, so forgive me if I answer to a meaning you did not intend. The event which we now base our calendars from is in relation to a very influential man. Originally, this form of timekeeping did have religious ties, but not anymore. We base our calendars from an event that many, and dare I say most, people can agree did happen but we do not do this because we believe in what the man who is related to this event lived or died for. It was simply an event in time. Consider the fact that we jews do not acknowledge this event in our calendar, yet we still believe in creationism. For us, it is the year 5767. Our time scale does not prove Christ's righteousness, it marks a convenient point in our history as human beings.

Answer 5

What about the people who follow a different calendar? The months are named after Roman gods and the weekdays are named after Norse gods. Our clocks are based on the movements of the sun and our bodies follow the rythm of the moon.

What does it matter on how we came to be? Your reasoning works for you and if it makes your life have more sense now then hold on to your faith, because non of us will ever know for sure. So faith (wether in god/s or in science) is all we will ever have. I would concentrate (as a very old friend of mine pointed out) to living life for the day. The trouble with us humans is that we ask impossible questions to which there are no answers, because we will only accept the answers that can be proven beyond doubt. Is it not the definition of faith to believe in something without proof?

Answer 6

The CHRISTIAN calender starts at Christ's supposed birth (he was probably actually born in 5 BC, in July). The HEBREW calender begins with the supposed date of the creation of the world, it is currently the year 5768 according to this system. The MUSLIM calender calculates from the revelation of the Quran to Mohamed, so right now is the year 1315 in that system. The CHINESE calender is also different, so is the HINDU calender. See, there are other people in the world who believe other things.

So, my honest opinion? Your theory is arrogant, Euro-centric, ignorant, and one of the dumbest things I've ever read on the Internet, and that is saying something.

Answer 7

well firstly, AD dose not stand for 'after death' it stands for Anno Domini. And another thing, we don't use those terms anymore, we use BCE before christian era and CE christian era. Another thing is, christianity is the worlds largest religion, it would explain why this timeline or calander (which was actually worked out wrong because the calanda was once forever changing) is widely excepted. it dose not prove anything correct towards religion, and you'll find that many other cultures and religions don't actually use this calanda anyway. yes, creation does exist, obviously, but who's to say 'god' created anything... if god created everything, who created god?

Answer 8

I am not sure that you stated a specific theory. I believe that creation came from God.Who or what God is needs to be clarified here.Christ said that God was or is His Father therefor if you where a christian than God would or should be your Father also. I am a christian and I have some trouble with this one. If God where my Father than would not this fact make him a man. I do not think this is true.To me God is more like love or perfection. If I loved with perfection than that would bring me prety close to Him.To get close to God is in my humble opinion a great goal to shoot for and I believe that He wishes this for each of us (the human race ).

Answer 9

The calendar was created by Medieval Christians. It has been acknowledged by them to be wrong anyway. Even Christian scholars don't think Christ was born in Year 1, they think he was born in year 4 BCE by our calendar. It's just an arbitrary convention because everyone in Europe was already using it. But not even everyone on the planet uses this same calendar.

Answer 10

I would recommend reading something. The Elegant Universe and The Fabric of the Cosmos, by Brian Greene, or The Whole Shebang, by Tim Ferris. If you're actually open to other points of view, read anything by Richard Dawkins. There is not one shred of proof for the existence of a sky fairy. I won't bore you with Big Bang Theory, nucleosynthesis, or high energy physics. Your mind is already made up. Your argument proffers the anthropic principle without even understanding what that is.

Answer 11

Aesity means self-existence. Aesity explains the metaphysical nature of God as a purely self-existent being that exists in complete actuality. God is not a being that is created by another god; neither does God create himself into existence. Rather, God has always existed as an unchanging, completely actualized being.


God has his Being of himself and to himself such that he is Absolute being and the definition of existence.
Since God’s essence is his nature and God’s existence is the same as his essence it follows that God is existence.
