Lam doesn't think God created the universe either, but nobody bothered to make a Collarme thread about that.

If atheists "battle" against anything it's the unjustified beliefs of theists and the effects those beliefs have on us all. Both of which clearly exist.

God is big enough, and old enough to take care of himself. If he exists, I doubt he wants us to kill each other over him. What is it that we have that he doesn't already have? If he wants or needs something from us, than he is not complete. Therefore, if God exists, we are all part of God. Nothing cannot become something, but there are infinite varieties of nothing. 0 is 0. 1-1 is also 0. You have 1 and -1 which becomes 0. 3 - 2 - 1 = 0. You have 3 of one thing, -2 of another, and -1 of another. Again, they all add up to 0. Edward Witten is who most physists consider heir apparent to Einstein. The person who brought back the string theory in the 90s and brought the 11th dimension, and parellel universes back. As admirable as Dr Hawkings is, you are probably better served by studying Dr Witten's work.

This guy has about as much credibility as Alan Greenspan does now. He's living off his past accomplishments, and now he can say anything, and the news media automatically takes it as the gospel. He's full of crap. Think about it. He says that the universe created itself out of nothing. I understand he has a bone to pick with God since he has been imprisoned in his own body, but arrogance is not going to win him any points with the big man upstairs.

My own personal biased opinion presented here: 1) Science has demonstrated that the universe itself is moving. 2) Science has demonstrated that the universe is cooling down. This suggests to me the following images:: A) The universe is tangible matter within another existence or science experiment B) Either the outer existence has cooled down or the Bunsen burner has been turned off. C) Life here is an accident of another's blood contaminating this universe. and probably the most radical theory I have is that: D) we are but one of 60 some possible variants of life with the bountiful of universes that exist. Along another parallel issue and as for Professor Steven Hawkin's: he postulates that Black Holes evaporate into neutrally charged neutrons, elections, and protons of atomic matter. Woujdn't this suggest a 6th form of Matter besides: BEC, Solid, Liquid; Gas, and Plasma matter forms? MstrPBK St. Paul, MN USA

MstrPBK St. Paul, MN USA The universe heating up would suggest it is within another existence, cooling down doesnt. Heat is just motion, and everything must slow down unless its in a non-existent frictionless environment or energy is supplied from outside the system. And its Stephen Hawking, not Steven Hawkins.

Sooo you are another super genius...do you know how to tune your car...be a brain surgeon...and know enough to judge if he is correct? If not then why are you opening your mouth making a judgment you are not qualified to make? Now tell me, super genius, how spontaneous creation of all things is any different then intelligent design? It seems to me in his opinion he is assuming intelligence develops over time from the physical universe that was spontaneously created from nothingness. Why could not intelligence come before the physical universe. Then the universe we live in today could have been created with an intelligent design…therefore a God if you like. Why is one more likely than the other? Love for you, in all your wisdom, to tell me why intelligent design is any less likely than spontaneous creation? If you can’t then you are talking out your ass.

Icarys -> RE: Hawking: God Did Not Create Universe (9/5/2010 3:04:24 PM)
On a comparison scale we're not even born yet when it comes to understanding the universe and the how's and why it was created. How someone could think they have that figured out is beyond me as much as it is beyond anyone. We may have hints and faith of belief but that's about it.

atursvcMaam -> RE: Hawking: God Did Not Create Universe (9/5/2010 3:20:19 PM)
you are all, of course, right. i am a solipsist which allows you all to be right each in your own universe. i prefer to believe in God, and therefore an afterlife, as laying for many years in a wooden box under the ground does not appeal to me as a way to spend eternity. However, as a solipsist i am quite secure in the belief that when i cease to exist, in whatever plane, so do you all.

Should I start with reading comprehension...or crayons? But really why should we spend time trying to insult each other.. I asked, I think, a valid question…how is spontaneous creation any less fantastic or different then intelligent design? AND why could not intelligence develop in the unknown before the existence of anything? Why would this be any less likely than the potential universe before spontaneous creation? If one can potentially exist why not the other? Butch

quote: ORIGINAL: kdsub I asked, I think, a valid question…how is spontaneous creation any less fantastic or different then intelligent design? Well, if you want Stephen Hawkings actual answer to that question perhaps you should read his book. But assuming his position is given without supporting science and is just an opinion is why I agree that your statement is silly. P.S. I would actually enjoy it if you used crayons.

By your logic the Creator could not exist without a creator.
