Re: A question to all believers:
Now this is the same question that is commonly posted to atheists, that is to them, "How was the universe created, how does something come from apparent nothingness?" From a scientific standpoint theists seem to believe that we have no solid theory to deal with this. This is wrong in several ways however.
We are observers who in every way are stuck inside of our universe. We cannot in any way probe outside of its dimensions which include time as well. How are we ever supposed to formulate a theory on such a subject without any ability to probe outside of it? The big bang theory is an excellent attempt with solid backing to trace back the events of this universe as far as possible, but for us to hypothesize on its origins is simple impossible. In no way however, does this suggest that we must throw away all the observable data we have of this universe and accept some procured divine being. In a place where space and time are without meaning there are any number of possible explanations that do not involve divinity as to how everything we understand could have come into being. So we have not proven anything yet on the nature of the universe, yet we still have evidence that has thouroughly disproven every major religion in existance on this planet.
