It’s not God that is the problem it’s religion (as Lamby so eloquently put it)
Don’t believe in religion – it causes wars, hatred, famine and prejudice …… just believe in something unquantifiable called “God”
9 August, 2006 at 10:30 am #233284God is a figmant of our imaginations. A bit like an imaginary friend who we turn to in times of desperate need, when mortals in the real world can’t seem to help us any more.
Its comforting to know we can turn to our imaginary friend in times of woe but it doesn’t mean he exsists.10 August, 2006 at 5:46 pm #233285i believe in him when im good and when im not i hide lol :)

Are you talking about that white knuckle ride at Alton Towers, or the process of natural selection? Either way it has nothing to do with the creation of the universe.
I have just heard that they are now debating whether Pluto is a planet or not. Just when you think you have got things right in your mind, they go and mess it up again. My head is spinning, am I a satellite? :roll:
14 August, 2006 at 3:38 pm #233289I suppose God is as good an explanation for the start of the universe in the absence of any other compelling theory, Manners. However, it occurs to me that is precisely what God and gods have always been – an easy way to explain away difficult subjects. The province of God, in that respect, has been getting smaller and smaller as time has gone by. He, She or They is/are needed less and less.
That said, though, there is absolutely no evidence that God or Gods was/were involved at all and, so, it must be regarded as an article of faith, rather than an explanation designed to fit the facts.
14 August, 2006 at 5:28 pm #233290there is only one god :D

There had to have been a spark though Pikey. The VERY beginning of anything. I dont think it’s likely to come about by itself.
The Big Bang had to have a beginning as well surely. Surely a God willing the Universe into exsitence is more practical than a Universe willing itself into exsistence. -
