Harry Said:

All Christian "evidence" for God, in one spot? (all of which are invalid)?

We Answered:

Don't get your hopes up.

Beth Said:

Atheists, what are the chances.....(warning: kinda deep)...?

We Answered:

I believe part of the argument is flawed because the box is real, it was created and you can prove that this box was man-made. Science has never claimed to have the answer to the why.

Now, I agree that Stephen Hawking is a brilliant scientist and he has some very valid points on how there isn't a creator needed to create the universe.

However, I tend to view the beginnings of the Cosmos through Logic.

If you say there has to be a God to start the entire process then the next question MUST be where did God come from? If something can't be created out of nothing then he too must have a creation and a creator. So where did this second God come from? It ends up being a never-ending series of questions. The only logical outcome is that the Universe was never "created" in the first place and has always existed.

Look at it another way, the chance you speak of is so random. Every possible outcome will happen in a Cosmos that is infinitely old. We are very lucky to be here, you could say that we won the Cosmic Lottery. It doesn't mean by some devine design, but by luck and serendipity. We have yet to know of our uniqueness in the Cosmos because we have yet discovered other lifeforms in the Universe.

What if the big bang is just the most recent "bang"? And there is an infinite series of bangs OR our Universe is one small part of a much larger Cosmos we can never see.

Wallace Said:

philosophical speaking why do some atheist scientist believe in time travel and others do not? and do you?

We Answered:

Time Travel is "mathematically" possible given what we know about the nature of black holes and such, but...

It is not "physically" possible, nor technologically possible, and it probably never will be because organic beings tend to be ripped apart by immense time-altering gravitational phenomena.

There's nothing about the universe that would prevent time travel around the event horizon of a black hole if you could find out a way to keep from being stretched and pulled apart like so much taffy or burned up by the released heat of it...

The nearest black hole, however, would take thousands of years to get to even at the top speed a physcial being could achieve, so although it's "possible," the likelihood of it is so (for all practical purposes for sentient organic beings) slim it might as well be impossible...
