That's a bitch for us... but at least i don't have to worship you. Obviously if the evils of the world exist, and they are just a figment of your imagination turned reality, you must be evil as well.

Hey, wait... that sounds familiar...

Good - otherwise I'll have to punish you.

Perhaps this thread should be moved to Miscellaneous Humorous Discussions.

Why does the universe require a cause?

Don't rain on my parade please. I'm sorry you thought my idea for the beginning of the universe was humorous but I hold it very near and dear to my heart. I hope you feel good about yourself.

BTW I said "assuming" the universe needs a cause.

Seriously though, if it bothers you that much that this discussion is misplaced, i'll be more careful next time.

But if you think about it, it is a misc religion discussion.

It seems to me that Christians have a HUGE problem with the idea that we might be the result of some great accident, i.e. the Big Bang theory or whatever. I wonder if this is because of Christian arrogance - that we as humans are somehow so important that a God must have purposefully created us.

I hold that the Universe does not exist but all that exists finds its existence in space and this space is what we call the Universe. So if the Big Bang created the Universe it didn't do much (not that that makes God look any better).

Space is like time and neither exist but we find our existence in space and time. If you think that space is real and time is real, you must be the one that is not real (but I still like your whip).
