you are digressing...but then there was no other way. How else would you be able to reconcile your stubborn disbelieve in any sort of creator and at the same time have to agree that matter must come from somewhere and must be created by someone/something.
I'm the one rooting for a Creator. When we discover that sub atomic particles are actually alive that will only bring us closer to the creator.
No, I think you are just highly confused. In post #2 of this thread you said "I'll believe it when 97% of scientists agree. Until then I'm an atheist. And even then I may not convert because my belief in Atheism gives me comfort." http://www.elitetrader.com/et/index...the-universe-was-created.300707/#post-4294797
what if the whole universe is a minuscule detail in the larger context of an all powerful creator? Would such thought make you feel uncomfortable?
what if an all powerful creator is a minuscule detail in the context of the larger schemes of an even more all powerful creator than you imagine? Would such thought make you feel the unsatisfactory discomfort of infinite regress?
now I think you stumbled over your own wanting to sound sophisticated...so you agree there is a possibility of a creator?
