[Discussion] If a god created the universe

[realobito1]

Dude that is what a god is. What the hell?

 

[Aim64C]

Where did that god get the material or "stuff" to make it in the first place? It can't just make it out of nothing right?

Our understanding of physics doesn't even begin to allow for an answer to this.

Physics, as we know it, only applies within this universe. Concepts of energy, matter, existence, vacuum.... "Nothing" may be what was 'created' to form this universe to create the concept of energy potential and entropy.

 

[Yusuke Urameshi]

The making out of nothing doesn't make any sense because only nothing comes nothing.

1. You seem to ask religious questions quite frequently. Why not go to someone who's more qualified than the people on this website?
2. God doesn't abide by our physics.
3. By that same logic, evolution is broken too.

 

[Punk Hazard]

You're failing to understand God is supposed to be omnipotent.

 

[Braveknight]

Also the universe is expanding, nothing is becoming something every day.

 

[-Punk-]

no one cant answer this , is just make believe stories, choose whichever you like

Craigslist is older than you think

 

[Takure]

If s/he's really a god/dess then s/he should be able to create anything from nothing.

That's not really true, the power to do everything and anything doesn't exist. Because, if you asked "God" to create an unbeatable task and they did. That means they should have the power to beat that unbeatable task. If "God" did, beat that unbeatable task, that task was never an unbeatable task to begin with meaning "God" failed to create an unbeatable task. If "God" can't create or beat an unbeatable task, that means "God" doesn't have the power to do anything and everything.

I hope that makes sense... :/ Btw, this is something I read a long, long time ago. So, that might not be how it's actually said. But, I hope you get what I mean.

 

[Aim64C]

Your answer is simple, God does not exist he/she is an imaginary answer created by mankind

big bang is the answer

A rose by any other name is just as sweet.

Please explain how the "Big Bang" is functionally distinct from "God" in this context.

 

[Supreme x Uchiha]

You're failing to understand God is supposed to be omnipotent.

exactly, I didn't know an omnipotent being needed a hammer and a bench to create the universe..

 

[Cruciatus]

Well I mean. . .if you're defining God as an all powerful being, then I don't think the laws of physics and the law of conservation of matter and all of that shit applies to him. >__O

That's not really true, the power to do everything and anything doesn't exist. Because, if you asked "God" to create an unbeatable task and they did. That means they should have the power to beat that unbeatable task. If "God" did, beat that unbeatable task, that task was never an unbeatable task to begin with meaning "God" failed to create an unbeatable task. If can't create or beat an unbeatable task, that means "God" doesn't have the power to do anything and everything.

I hope that makes sense... :/

That's true, I read something similar to that before. Maybe there isn't a true god then. I'm agnostic so i'm open to any religious theories.

 

[Krauq]

Matter can't be created nor destroyed. So from that logic matter was already around. But where did it come from? Science doesn't know because it is impossible to trace where something from nothing came from. The Big Bang theory is just a guess. Personally that is why I do believe in God. There is no way this complex system of things came from nothing.

So then what did god make it out of?

 

[Hypemaster]

To add on, I think that as human beings we will never be able to understand how something can be created out of nothing. We have limited knowledge, and our intelligence is only based off of the environment that we know of. Which alludes to why we have so many theories and so little answers. Everything has already been set up for us, yet we humans think we are self sufficient. As to who set up this environment for us, I believe you know where I am going with this.

 

[~Puppet Master~]

The most probable answer: God doesn't exist.

How did the universe get created:
Stewie went back in time to the point before the space-time continuum, his machine overcharged, causing what's know as the big bang, and thus the universe was created. So the universe created Stewie so that Stewie could create the universe. :|

 

[Krauq]

Also the universe is expanding, nothing is becoming something every day.

The universe expanding does not contradict physics or logic.

That riddle is such a cop out. To try and create a task that can't be completed is a dumb request anyway.

 

[CurseSealofEarth]

So then what did god make it out of?

His feces. Because everything turned to shit anyway.

 

[Krauq]

A true god/dess can define any law that the physical universe is bound to.

Even if physics doesn't apply, logic does.

he used his imagination to form everything
