“The idea that God created the universe is indeed logical”
What’s the logic, then?
"..God, such a preposition is logical given the evidence of the physical universe.”
So, wait. YOu don’t have evidence of god. You interpret the physical existence of the universe, NOT as evidence of God, but as a justification to just add God to the situation because you want to.
That’s not logic. That’s you arguing that your initial premise is good and labeling it ‘logical’ against all definitions of the word.
“The thought that the universe created itself is not just illogical but absurd based on what we know about space, time and matter.”
What we know about space, time, and matter is all based on what we see INSIDE the universe. It’s more than a small logical leap to suggest that the conditions here dictate the drastically different conditions that must have existed without time or space.
“Your preposition that God just "popped into existence" is wrong”
Well, it’s more of an interpretation of your presupposition. You want there to be a god and you want there to be rational reasons to think so. But you dislike disrespectful language about where in teh fuck your eternal perfect being could come from.
“and itself an absurd idea.”
How is this different from your idea, besides language?
“ What do you suppose are the chances of yourself just popping into existence from pond slime?”
No one but creationists think it worked that way.
“Even the most deluded evolutionist would not propose that man could instantaneously 'evolve' from a chemical soup.”
THen why ask the odds of something no one is suggesting?
“ So how could God, who is infinitely greater than man, form from nothing?"
How could he NOT form from ANYTHING?
