atheists I mean
2007-10-31 06:01:26 · update #1
Athiests believe that something came out of nothing, and they try to debate this by describing different processes and laws of nature after the Big Bang to contemplate for human creation. But i ask you this... Where did these laws of nature come from? Surely they weren't created randomly? The laws of nature im referring to are the laws that were there within a milisecond of the big bang.. If the athiest creationist point of view is correct, then the laws of nature, along with human life, would have taken billion of years of evolution to get in place. But pity science condones the fact that the laws of nature are independent of natural selection and evolution. AND THEY WERE THERE WITHIN SECONDS after the big bang! So how do you explain that! I mean common!?? An intelligent designer IS MORE PROBABLE than life comming out of nothing. ARE YOU WILLING TO BET YOUR LIFE AND SOUL on an EXTREMEMLY SMALL probability that life came out of nothing?? Well are you? THe probability of which has been calculated to be such a small number that if you were to write it without scientific notation.. it cannot be written out in all the papers in this world... thats how small the number is... Rethink your priorities!

I have never heard ANYONE, theist OR atheist, attribute ANYTHING to "Stuff just happens". Accepting that the provable laws of physics and natural selection work, and extrapolating backwards from what we currently know by using those laws and newly-acquired data is not solely an act of an atheist. The "Crux of the biscuit", to borrow one from Zappa, is that while science is able to prove many things, and is working on proving ever more, there has NEVER been any proof of a concious entity that existed OUTSIDE OF the laws that govern all. Any attempt at that proof has fallen victim to logical fallacy and gross errors of understanding. Atheists DEMAND a logical chain of cause-and-effect, as a matter of fact, since their stance is that nothing can be attributed to some supposed spiritual extra-reality "being", so, your statement that they DO believe that "Stuff just happens" is a gross error and fallacious statement.

You are mistaken! Atheists don't say an intelligent designer is illogical. What they do say is that there is no EVIDENCE for this so called 'Intelligent Designer'. Now, believing something without evidence is illogical, and thats not just Atheist but everyone who says that. Wouldn't it be nice if just once you religious people could get your facts straight?

Well first of all, "intellegent" design.. isnt! Nature is full of bad design that can be explained by evolution but not by the idea that perfect creator created the creature. For example, your gastro-instestinal tract and your respiratory system cross, a design flaw that makes it possible for you to choke to death.
Second, evolution doesnt say things "just happen". Natural selection is a predictable result of several facts in combination. Such as:
A population has variation
Some individuals are better suited for survival than others
Traits are inheritable
etc.

Another head in the sand extremist christian lunatic. Haven't we got past all this yet, like most folks have said why is it OK to believe that there is this mystic supreme being who we for some reason call God and he just created everything in 6 days, what was here before? was your God just sat there in the midst of a great nothing and fancied a toy?????
Get real your version is even more improbable that the scientific hypothesis.
Try this for a theory

We don't say that stuff just happens, we say that stuff has happened and then we try to examine that stuff to find a logical reason as to why that stuff happened. As evidence grows we occasionally find contradictions to our hypotheses and theories and alter them accordingly. It's the logical path. ID advocates say that stuff happened because goddidit and, despite all the evidence in the world, never alter their assumptions. Which would you say is more logical?

I don't believe in God and I don't think that stuff just happens. I think that we don't know and don't see any point having firm points of view about something which cannot be known (for the time being at least).

Why do theists think that it's illogical to say that the universe always existed and ordered itself, but they think that it's perfectly logical to say that there's a God that always existed with no explanation given other than, "God's eternal, and that's that?"

If you're talking about evolution, the guiding forces are natural (hence NATURAL selection). Nothing suggests that there is somebody or force guiding the force, except some people's incomprehensibility of the theory. And if you're referring to complex systems, natural selection can and does create them.

It doesn't JUST HAPPEN. It logically and intelligently just happens.
