Origin of the universe: god versus no god

Hasanuddin, since we were wandering off topic I've answered you here:

I just wanted to thank everyone for their replies. Obviously, there are no defintive anwsers to the question I posed. Personally, I do not know what to think at this time. There are times when I look around me and the answer seems obvious: The proof of a god/creator is right in front of my nose. The fact I am here, able to think and able to percieve this environment is incredible. And then there are others when you try to rationalize everything and where it came from -- it just can't be done.

 

Again, thank you very much for you contributions ,this is a thread I will likely refer back to many times.

 

In the meantime, I am going to play it safe and do the best I can for my family: both Darwin and (a good) God, I think, would supprt me in this.
