If there is no God, no life after death, no rapture of the church, no future resurrection to get excited about, then what is life all about? Where do we come from? Do you honestly believe that every form of life on this planet is the result of a BIG BANG in space?

Are you saying that the complexities of plant life, the human body, animals, water, planets, the untold millions of galaxies, etc, just popped into existence? If Jesus does not return as mentioned in over 300 biblical verses, then what is there to live for?

@usn0814,
This incredulity that religious types have with the Big Bang always amuses me.

Their god is omnipotent yet incapable of setting off the Big Bang.

Instead everything had to be created individually and put in place.

I much prefer the idea of a god who could set everything up and just need to light the blue touch paper for it all to happen, not some limited god whose existence flies in the face of scientific evidence and who lacks the wherewithal to cause the Big Bang.

Why is your god so second rate?

I'm saying you're mocking something you cannot comprehend.

If you understood the science behind it you wouldn't be so glib.

Instead you are doing what children do, ridiculing what they don't understand.

All you've done is show your own limitations.

Everything else, obviously.

No one's saying that. You, taking the christian bible literally, are implying that it took six days. The more widely accepted viewpoint is that life on earth evolved incrementally over half a billion years, and that, according to physical cosmologists, the universe itself is nearly 14 billion years old.

Have you read Waiting for Godot?

No, but I have seen a production with Ian Marter (Harry Sullivan from Tom Baker's Dr Who) as Pozzo.

@hightor,
There are two realities:

1. God created everything

Or

2. God did not create anything.

Pick one and be happy.

@izzythepush,
It is best to walk through with hope for a better tomorrow than to walk in fear and darkness about the road ahead.

What do you mean by the letter b?

Are you a clown, ignorant or both?

To the author of this question: No offense, but I have to put you on ignore because (you know why). You shouldn't bother to answer because I will never see it. Have a great life.

You're the saddest git here, whining about how you can't retire and pleading with us to cure your crisis in faith while writing execrable doggerel.

You have made god in your own image, which is why your god is such a bloody idiot.

Yes I'm an ignorant clown.

But not the kind of ignorant clown displaying wavering belief in imaginary mythical beings, with insufficient retirement funding, struggling with syntax, and posting identical drivel in answers and questions.

@usn0814,
There are other possibilities.

One of the most popular one being that it was created by the Demiurge.

@usn0814,
Your god isn't as smart as a Nobel prize winning physicist.

Admittedly that's pretty smart for a mere mortal, but one would have assumed an omnipotent deity would actually be a lot smarter.

That's what happens when you make god in your own image.
