Assuming the universe requires a cause, it eludes me how the theists arrived at God when the obvious answer is this...

A trancendant universe making machine that existed before time began, is existing now, and will exist when time ends and therefore requires no cause for itself. My universe machine is SUPERnatural so it doesn't fall subject to scientific explaination. Noone can prove that it doesn't exist, so it must!

By the way, my universe machine is NOT omnipotent or omniscient... but is diligently working on the whole disease and famine thing.

It's a trinity?

...and what about the non-he, non-she and non-it aspects of...uh...you know,uh...,the Thingamabob?

A pink unicorn did it (not an invisible one, that's the evil twin). Wait, you wanted a creative explanation? Cretin pounding!

The universe is actually a projectile weapon fired from a device owned by a member of a race of giant, super-intelligent, pandemensional beings at a giant wasp-like creature. The person firing the weapon is actually a little crazy, but would be interested to know that in the instant of the existance of this projectile he managed, somehow, to create sentient life. I know this is true because it has never been refuted. You can't disprove something that's true.

interesting. I suppose it wouldn't be out of the ordinary to ammend my beliefs... so yes... not only is hesheit a he, she, and it. Hesheit is alson non-he, non-she, and non-it. This i believe will eventually aid me in retaining my beliefs as it will be much harder to disprove something the negates itself.

Jubal... nice one. Is there any way we can combine our theories to form a stronger, more ridiculous one? The more details we have, the more argumental hiding places we have.

The big bang was the result of the pyrotechnics of a really wild concert getting a little out of control. I should know since I used my time travel machine to attend the concert. It was great! You don't believe me? Try to prove me wrong. You can't!

And this attitude will get you far in the path to true religious ingenuity (and I mean that in all possible ingenuous senses of the word!).

I suppose i could ask you where your time machine is. But the quick witted reply would be... it exploded in the pyrotechnics... along with any other shred of evidence.
