So You Don't Believe In God? Rebuttal
There was an article on jesus-is-savior.com, speaking to atheist, agnostics, and skeptics on there article "So You Don't Believe In God?"
On the "So You Don't Believe In God" they ask a few odd questions and some statements;
To which in my reply of this; the universe was basically created in laments terms the big bang which can be explained here.
Now, with the claim that only god is the answer, I must say, besides the overwhelming evidence for the big bang theory, what evidence to you have of God especially your God is the one who did it? also even if somehow the big bang theory was incorrect, how does that make your god logical?
Where did life began?
And as above the only answer is God according to them. Now according to quantum theory, something CAN come from nothing. The explanation of WHY that happens has not yet been formed. And it happens all the time -- and can be demonstrated experimentally. Virtual particles come into existence spontaneously; they don't last, but during their brief existence they have measurable effects. But it is admittedly a bit of a stretch to compare the appearance of an electron (mass 9E-31 kg) with the mass of the universe (mass on the order of 1E80 kg). Still, the big bang theory explains a lot of things that are otherwise unexplainable. (Hawking, A Brief History of Time). And ever hear of abiogenesis? Life from non life. which by the way, are cells are made up of non living material called atoms (protons, neutrons, and electron). Now, can you prove that man even have a spirit? because we are nothing more then organic machines, with biological programing. There is no soul under the body of your car, as there is no soul beneath all skin or in our hearts. Despite the overtly unsatisfactory realisation that must dawn on all of us, it is an absolute truism that the actions and thoughts of ALL animals can be reduced to mechanical and chemical forces. Our most impassioned desires and most intimate dreams are nothing more than the result of sodium and potassium currents. Sodium and potassium currents that forcefully sweep us along in absolute ignorance of our supposed volition. "How can nothing evolve and reproduce?" well, simply put evolution is a slow process. and im not going to go into every detail on here. And animals do have a moral conscience, monkeys caring for their own, or even other species, same with dogs, cats, elephants, etc.
- Where did the universe came from?
- Do you really believe that we came from stardust?
- If so, were did all the original matter come from?

Where did life began?
- How can something come from nothing?
- How can lifeless material bring forth life?
- How can nothing bring on intelligence?
- Where did mans spirit come from?
- How can nothing evolve and reproduce?
- Why dont animals have a moral conscience?

- How big is the universe?
- Where does it end?
- If its ever expanding, then whats beyond its outer limits?
- if there is an ending, then whats beyond the end?
According to Brent Tully, an astronomer at the University of Hawaii, "There is an edge to what we are able to see and could ever possibly seein the universe. Light travels at 300,000 kilometers per second (186,000 miles per second). That's top speed in this universe—nothing can go faster—but it's relatively slow compared to the distances to be traveled. The nearest big galaxy to our Milky Way, the Andromeda galaxy, is two million light-years away. The most distant galaxies we can now see are 10 or 12 billion light-years away. We could never see a galaxy that is farther away in light travel time than the universe is old—an estimated 14 billion or so years. Thus, we are surrounded by a "horizon" that we cannot look beyond—a horizon set by the distance that light can travel over the age of the universe.This horizon describes the visible universe—a region some 28 billion light years in diameter. But what are the horizons of a civilization that inhabits the most distant galaxies we see? And what about galaxies at the limits of their vision? There is every reason to think that the universe extends a long way beyond the part of the universe we can see. In fact, a variety of observations suggest that our visible patch may be a small fraction—maybe an infinitely small fraction—of the whole universe." Which I believe explained those questions there.
