1. there is nothing material about it.
2. entropy
Most people do, what about you?
The egg because that's where the changes take place.Which came first, the chicken or the egg?
That it did is one of two equally unlikely scenarios, one of which must be true:
Intelligence resulted from non intelligence, or god created intelligence.
- Entropy does not apply to every physical principle. It primarily refers to thermodynamics, and the most important feature of entropy is that it only works that way in a CLOSED system. Outside factors can reduce or reverse entropy.1. there is nothing material about it.
2. entropy
Great, the either/or fallacy rears its ugly head.
Can you think of a third alternative?
1. there is nothing material about it.
2. entropy
That they might both be wrong, and we don't exactly know what happened?
There is no god, and intelligence didn't just develop on its own?
No, we don't know what happened. Maybe space aliens??
The need to explain existence with God is no more true than the need of the Greeks to explain volcanic eruption with Hades...
There is no need to "explain existence with God." Millions of souls have come and gone throughout the course of human history embracing and espousing "God" concepts of an unfathomable variety. Still, these souls passed through their brief existence, from birth to death, regardless of the ultimate veracity of their particular "God" concept neither better nor worse for the experience for as much as we presently extant humans can presently know.
The primal perception of an awesome, omnipresent, universal entity preceded the evolution of human objectivity and all its subsequent concepts, including the myriad of God concepts which have evolved concomitant with human experience, up to this very day. It is one of the great absurdities of human neurological evolution that we have been veiled from this most precious primal perception which other sentient beings, including our own cats and dogs, readily enjoy.
Sure, supposing such a process somehow became manifest from absolute nothingness to begin with.Not really... intelligence could evolve as species learn how to better adapt. Nothing silly, naive or illogical about that at all...
Must it be a 'need'? Can it not be a belief? Even a belief informed by personal insight and experience?I was trying to invoke a reaction more than anything. Agreed. The "need" for their to be a God and salvation along with everlasting life is very comforting ideas and I can also see why so many people believe. After being indoctrinated from birth most can't see any other way of thinking.
Dont hold your breath.I sometimes wish that God would make Himself known, in so obvious a fashion as to bedazzle every last human being on the face of the earth.
Just for the sake of being childish enough to enjoy the utter shock and horror from the atheist community.
****, what I wouldn't give to be a fly on that wall. :lol:

I wish there were some stats on how many atheists accept our lord and savior Jesus Christ on their death bed.....Sadly I am at a time of my life where long time friends are dying and several who had given up on religion did exactly that. If this life on earth was all there is how sad would it be.......
