That doesn’t mean you should believe that there’s a god. It just means there scientifically could be a god. That is what Einstein said on the matter. He was a pretty smart guy, and rather unbiased in his opinion.

Your hypothesis is that there is no god. I just provided you with two unexplainable events. According to the laws of physics, that matter could not have been created from nothing, nor could have it have generated motion from nothing. Until you can find more evidence, your hypothesis is unsupported.

Who knows? Maybe the JWST will prove there was no creator. I’m scientific. I’ll accept a logical explanation as soon as we have one. Until then, I maintain the position that there there is equal possibility of existence and non-existence of a creator.

While I agree with the general sentiment of your comment, I refuse to believe in anything without empirical evidence of such. These are gaps in our current understanding of our reality. History has shown, there is a logical explanation for just about everything. Nothing.. ever.. literally.. EVER.. has pointed toward the existence of such a god..............ever.

That’s fair. I’m not arguing that there is a god. I’m only saying that there could be a god. I respect your choice to remain in disbelief of existence. I just hope you also see how science can prove the possibility of existence.

=] I absolutely do. I would very much welcome the evidence of a god and eternal life that is entailed. It sounds wonderful.

Sure. Although, one doesn’t necessarily imply the other. It’s possible there was simply a being larger than our understanding that set things in motion and left, two beings that chose to collide, or giant aliens playing marbles like the end scene in Men in Black. lol

I enjoy the room for theories more than following a committed belief system myself. If I had to define my belief, I’d say I’m a scientific agnostic omnitheist. There’s no proof there is, or isn’t, a god, therefore any and all paths could theoretically be the path to god, or nothing at all.

Basically, I won’t pervert science just to shit in someone’s corn flakes. Lol
