"Albeit it does move" these where the words of italian polymath Gallilio Galilei when he was forced by the church to recant is claims that the earth moves around the immovable sun.Religion will always be ignorant and will do anything to stick to its lies.Theist will continue to deny facts as long as it is against their favorite book.

Science doesn't need God, because science has no use of divine agents, as said by the great astronomer and physicist Pierre Simon de Laplace, who wrote the "Celestial Mechanics".
Napoleon Bonaparte asked why he did not mention God in his book. Laplace replied “I have no need of that hypothesis.”

The truth is that you neither practice science nor believe in the Creator God. What you seek is to continue in your sinful lifestyle.

Stop confusing what traditional religion and Christianity stand for. They are apples and oranges. True science confirms the Bible.

the fact that you believe that a person who does NOT believe in your god is automatically a "sinner" further shows us what a narrow state of mind you lot have. Science has absolutely NOTHING to do with whatever you call "sin", unless of course you want to tell me that there is something scientifically wrong with a man who doesnt believe in your god.

There is only One God and Creator of all things. Any scientist worth its salt will want to know where everything came from and that is what is called presupposition. If you believe everything comes from nothing I don't see how that makes any logical, reasonable or scientific sense.

When I look at a building, how do I know that there was a builder? I can't see him, hear him, touch, taste, or smell him. Of course, the building is proof that there was a builder. In fact, I couldn't want better evidence that there was a builder than to have the building in front of me. I don't need "faith" to know that there was a builder. All I need is eyes that can see and a brain that works.

Likewise, when I look at a painting, how can I know that there was a painter? Again, the painting is proof positive that there was a painter. I don’t need "faith" to believe in a painter because I can see the clear evidence. The same principle applies with the existence of God. When I look at creation, how can I know that the Creator exists? I can't see Him, hear Him, touch Him, taste Him, or smell Him. How can I know that He exists? Why, creation shows me His existence. I couldn't want better proof that God exists than to have the creation in front of me. I don’t need faith to believe in a Creator; all I need is eyes that can see and a brain that works:

"For the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse" (Romans 1:20).

If, however, I want the builder to do something for me, then I need to have faith in him. The same applies to God: "Without faith it is impossible to please Him: for he that comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him” (Hebrews 11:6).

You have your 5 senses to know He exists but you need faith if you are to have fellowship with Him.

Here is my evidence. Where did the universe come from?

There are only three possibilities from where the universe can come from. By way of elimination, we will arrive at the scientific evidence of the origin of the universe which took just 6 days.

(1). The universe created itself; or

(2). The universe has always existed, or

(3). The universe was created.

1. The universe created itself:

Can something create itself? Can nothing create something? The answer to these is an absolute No. We all know that something cannot create itself and nothing can't create something. From Latin we have the phrase "ex nihilo, nihil fit" meaning "from nothing, nothing comes." It also violates the law of cause and effect, that says for every effect there must be a cause. The effect can't be greater than the cause and nothing cannot be greater than something. Therefore, based on the laws of science and logic, the universe couldn't have created itself. That leaves us with options 2 and 3.

2. The univese has always existed:

Lets go to the 2nd law of thermodynamics that basically teaches that "the whole universe is losing usable energy for doing usable work." This means that the usable energy in this universe is wearing down. The universe as a whole is losing energy. In other words, molecules as a whole are slowing down.

Therefore, if this universe was eternal we will be in what is called a "virtual heat death." This means that there will be virtually no molecular movement. Everything would have lost its available heat energy for doing work. Therefore, the universe cannot be eternal, it must have had a beginning. The theory that the universe has always existed or is eternal has to be false based on the law of science and logic, another speculation gone with the air. This leaves us with only one possibility based on science. Which is that:

3. The universe was created:

"In the Beginning God created the heaven and the earth." -- Genesis 1:1

Science confirms the biblical verse that in the beginning God created the heaven and the earth as we have just shown. With this verse we see that God is outside time. He is eternal, with no beginning or end. He also knows all things, being infinitely intelligent. To recognise His handiwork, you should be able to know how to recognise the evidence of the works of His intelligence. This is simple.

When I look at a painting, how do I know that there was a painter? I can't see him, hear him, touch, smell or taste him. The evidence of a painter is the painting I'm looking at. In other words, the painting is the proof positive that there was a painter. The painting is the product of the intelligence of the painter. Living things are also evidence of design. Wouldn't it be logical to assume that if man's highly intelligent brain designed the computer, then the human brain was also the product of design?

There is nothing illogical or unscientific about an Eternal Being who has always existed. Nobody created the infinite God. He is the Self-Existent One, the great "I AM THAT I AM" of the Bible. He is outside time because He created time. Everything that has a beginning requires a cause. The universe has a beginning and thus requires a cause. But the almighty God has no beginning since He is beyond time. Therefore, the Almighty God does not need a cause. That is the evidence that Yahweh alone created the universe. cool

Do you have a brain, if yes, is it intelligently designed? and if you still say yes, was it 'intelligently' designed by Harry Potter? undecided

I have already given proof above unless you didn't, wouldn't or couldn't see it. I know that the reason you don't hate Harry Potter is because you know that it doesn't exist. It is impossible to hate something that does not exist. You hate Yahweh because He exists. cool
